Understanding how some animals are immortal and avoid the ageing process is important.
We currently know very little about how they achieve this. Research with genetic model …

Planarians, a class of flatworm, are extraordinary: they possess the remarkable ability to
regenerate lost body parts, including complete regeneration of the nervous system. If cut into …

Planarian adult stem cells (pASCs) or neoblasts represent an ideal system to study the
evolution of stem cells and pluripotency as they underpin an unrivaled capacity for …

Post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms are of fundamental importance to form robust
genetic networks, but their roles in stem cell pluripotency remain poorly understood. Here …

Of all animals, it is perhaps planarians that have the greatest ability to regenerate. These
once classical classroom organisms have now become the subject of advanced molecular …

Adult stem cells (ASCs) that self renew indefinitely and generate differentiated cell types are
present in species of every phylum identified and, thus, likely share a common evolutionary …

Stammzellen wurden erstmals 1883 von A. Weismann als Urkeimzellen, das heißt als
Stammzellen der Keimzellen, beschrieben und so benannt. Im gesamten Tierreich sind …

The planarian Schmidtea mediterranea discovered by Benazzi, Baguñà, Ballester,
Puccinelli & Del Papa, 1975 is a classic model organism for the investigation of regenerative …
