Background
PDX1, also known as pancreatic duodenum homeobox-1, is a transcription factor encoded by a Hox-like homeodomain gene that plays a crucial role in pancreatic development, β-cell differentiation, and the maintenance of mature β-cell functions. It was first identified as a nuclear endodermal protein expressed in the epithelium of the duodenum and the pancreas. PDX1 activates the expression of several pancreas-associated genes, including insulin, somatostatin, glucokinase, and others. The PDX1 gene is highly conserved among different species and is composed of two exons encoding a protein of 283 amino acids. It is regulated by numerous distant enhancers and transcription factors, which are essential for pancreatic organogenesis and β-cell function. Research has shown that the overexpression of PDX1 promotes β-cell differentiation and insulin secretion, while its absence increases susceptibility to diabetes. Therefore, PDX1 is considered a promising therapeutic target for treating diabetes.

Immunohistochemistry
IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded human pancreas. Anti-PDX1 antibody was used at 1/1000 dilution, followed by a HRP Polymer for Mouse & Rabbit IgG (ready to use). Counterstained with hematoxylin. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
