Regeneration in the absence of canonical neoblasts in an early branching flatworm
2024-05-28
Abstract excerpt
The remarkable regenerative abilities of flatworms are closely linked to neoblasts – adult pluripotent stem cells that are the only division-competent cell type outside of the reproductive system. Although the presence of neoblast-like cells and whole-body regeneration in other animals has led to the idea that these features may represent the ancestral metazoan state, the evolutionary origin of both remains unclea...
