Despite the evolutionary loss of tissue regenerative potential, robust skeletal muscle repair
processes are largely retained even in higher vertebrates. In mammals, the skeletal muscle …

Ascidians have the potential to reveal fundamental biological insights related to coloniality,
regeneration, immune function, and the evolution of these traits. This study implements a …

Cephalopod mollusks are endowed with an impressive range of features that have captured
the attention of scientists from different fields, the imaginations of artists, and the interests of …

The capacity of adult muscle to regenerate in response to injury stimuli represents an
important homeostatic process. Regeneration is a highly coordinated program that partially …

Abstract Lancelets (Phylum Chordata, subphylum Cephalochordata) readily regenerate a
lost tail. Here, we use light microscopy and serial blockface scanning electron microscopy …

Abstract The European amphioxus (Branchiostoma lanceolatum) is a member of the
chordate subphylum Cephalochordata, and, as such, a key model organism for providing …

In humans, injuries and diseases can result in irreversible tissue or organ loss. This well-
known fact has prompted several basic studies on organisms capable of adult regeneration …

Tunicate orthologs in the human genome comprise just 84 genes of the 19,872 protein-
coding genes and 23 of the 16,528 non-coding genes, yet they stand at the base of the …

Despite the literature providing compelling evidence for the medical efficacy of
photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy, its consistency in terms of accuracy and standardization …

The holothurian Eupentacta fraudatrix is capable of fully restoring its muscles after
transverse dissection. Although the regeneration of these structures is well studied at the …
