Inter-organ communication during tissue regeneration

F Sun, KD Poss - Development, 2023 - journals.biologists.com
Tissue regeneration is not simply a local repair event occurring in isolation from the distant,
uninjured parts of the body. Rather, evidence indicates that regeneration is a whole-animal …

Origins of cancer: ain't it just mature cells misbehaving?

CJ Cho, JW Brown, JC Mills - The EMBO Journal, 2024 - embopress.org
A pervasive view is that undifferentiated stem cells are alone responsible for generating all
other cells and are the origins of cancer. However, emerging evidence demonstrates fully …

Ultrafast distant wound response is essential for whole-body regeneration
