Npas4l/Etsrp restricts the plasticity of the mesoderm.

Mesoderm and endoderm normally follow Waddington’s landscape model to further differentiate into cells with mesodermal fates and endodermal fates, respectively, during development. However, mutating npas4l or knocking down etsrp not only abolishes the endothelial/myeloid specification but also induces plasticity of mesodermal cells to enable their differentiation into β-cells across the germ layer boundary.
