Many systemic diseases are featured by muscle atrophy. Cellular proteins are modified by
covalent attachment to a small protein known as ubiquitin (Ub) through ubiquitination. This …

The ability to regenerate amputated or injured tissues and organs is a fascinating property
shared by several invertebrates and, interestingly, some vertebrates. The mechanism of …

Reptiles are the only amniotes that maintain the capacity to regenerate appendages. This
study presents the first anatomical and histological evidence of tail repair with regrowth in an …

Objective The growth rate of pigs is related to differentiation and proliferation of muscle cells,
which are regulated by growth factors and expression of growth-related genes. Thus, the …

While tail regeneration is observed in a number of vertebrate groups, including teleost fish
such as the zebrafish, urodeles such as the axolotl, and anurans such as Xenopus tadpoles …

(1) Background: Lizard tail regeneration provides a unique model of blastema-based tissue
regeneration for large-scale appendage replacement in amniotes. Green anole lizard …

Abstract Development of an ex vivo culture system to expand satellite cells, the resident
muscle stem cell population, will be necessary for the development of their use as …

The present review summarizes available information on the contribution of regenerating
nerves to the process of regeneration in the tail of lizards. From the last three segments of …

Initial observations on the regeneration of the tail in lizards were recorded in brief notes by
Aristotle over 2000 years ago, as reported in his book, History of Animals (cited from [1]) …

As amniote vertebrates, lizards are the most closely related organisms to humans capable of
appendage regeneration. Lizards can autotomize, or release their tails as a means of …
