Regeneration and the need for simpler model organisms.
The problem of regeneration is fundamentally a problem of tissue homeostasis involving the replacement of cells lost to normal 'wear and tear' (cell turnover), and/or injury. This attribute is of particular significance to organisms possessing relatively long lifespans, as maintenance of all body parts and their functional integration is essential for their survival. Because tissue replacement ...
متن کاملLens and retina regeneration: new perspectives from model organisms.
Comparative studies of lens and retina regeneration have been conducted within a wide variety of animals over the last 100 years. Although amphibians, fish, birds and mammals have all been noted to possess lens- or retina-regenerative properties at specific developmental stages, lens or retina regeneration in adult animals is limited to lower vertebrates. The present review covers the newest pe...
متن کاملRegeneration in Cardiac Muscle.
Proliferation of striated muscle, either in the form of regeneration of damaged tissue or hyperplasia of relatively normal cells, is generally thought not to occur. Such an opinion is an example of the general idea that more " specialized " tissues differ from less " differentiated " tissues in that they are unable to multiply in adult life. This proposition, however, has gradually become more ...
متن کاملS19-04 Cardiac regeneration in the zebrafish model system
Regeneration is a trait observed in various metazoans to differing extents. We are interested in how some species manage to regenerate complex structures and why this ability has been lost in other species. Among vertebrates, the salamanders have the most impressive regenerative abilities that includes appendage and spinal cord regeneration as well as regeneration of a number of organs such as ...
متن کاملComplete cardiac regeneration in a mouse model of myocardial infarction
Cardiac remodeling and subsequent heart failure remain critical issues after myocardial infarction despite improved treatment and reperfusion strategies. Recently, complete cardiac regeneration has been demonstrated in fish and newborn mice following resection of the cardiac apex. However, it remained entirely unclear whether the mammalian heart can also completely regenerate following a comple...
