A chloroquine sensitivity gradient induces tissue regeneration and maintenance phenotypes in planarians.

Abstract excerpt

Failure to properly regenerate and maintain tissues is a root cause of disease and aging. One goal of regenerative biology is to unveil mechanisms by which simpler model organisms successfully regenerate so that we can better understand how to control the cellular and molecular switches in human tissues. Planarians have become a favored model system for these studies because of their amazing capacity to fully and...
