Abstract | The ability of birds and mammals to regenerate tissues is limited. By contrast, urodele amphibians can regenerate a variety of injured tissues such as intestine, cardiac muscle, lens and neural retina, as well as entire structures such as limbs, tail and lower jaw. This regenerative capacity is associated with the ability to form masses of mesenchyme cells (blastemas) that differentiate into the missing tissues or parts. Understanding the mechanisms that underlie blastema formation in urodeles will provide valuable tools with which to achieve the goal of stimulating regeneration in mammalian tissues that do not naturally regenerate. Here we discuss an example of tissue regeneration (spinal cord) and an example of epimorphic appendage regeneration (limb) in the axolotl Ambystoma mexicanum, emphasizing analysis of the processes that produce the regeneration blastema and of the tissue interactions and blastemal products that contribute to the regeneration-promoting environment. |
