Confocal cross section of a regenerating tadpole limb. Focus on regenerative skin cell formation.

Two new Science studies in mice explore the roots of vertebrate limb regeneration and show that manipulating tissue mechanics, oxygen levels, and epigenetic signals can unlock regenerative potential.

Thank you so much Filipa!

Thank you, Wayo! :)

🚨 Why can’t mammals regenerate limbs like frog tadpoles or salamanders?
In our new paper in @science.org , we show that species-specific oxygen sensing acts as a gatekeeper for initiating limb regeneration 🐭🐸

Thank you so much, Uri!! :)

Congratulations to Max Planck Research Group Leader Can Aztekin and his team on their new paper in @science.org. They have discovered how oxygen-sensing explains why amphibians regenerate limbs and mammals do not.

This is amazing work. Congrats to you and the team on these incredible insights. Perfect example of why comparative biology is so important.

Thank you!!

Thanks a lot Josh!!

Thank you Eve!! :)

Thanks a lot Kristian! Hope all is well!!

Thank you Aida!! :) 🥳

Thank you!! :)

Thank you, Juliane!!

Thank you so much, Sara!! 🤩 🥳

Thank you!! :)

Thanks Malcolm!

I've always been fascinated by #regeneration;
& I have to say, my friend @canaztekin.bsky.social & his team always deliver…
If anything, I feel like he’s on track to find a way to grow two extra hands to pipette while simultanously writing grants.

Congrats

Not #zebrafish per se, but has big implications for the community 🤩

Congrats @canaztekin.bsky.social and everyone involved. Beautiful story on that has wide ranging implications. #EvoDevo & #regeneration at its best!

Thank you for your kind words, Yasin!! :)

Thank you so much! Of course the fish and the frog can be friends! 🥳

Thank you so much, Tugce!! :)

Thank you, Kristina! Hope all is well in Vienna!! :)

Thank you so much, David!! 🥳

Thank you!!! -all this fire consumes oxygen anyways 😂

Thank you, Omaya! You are always so generous with your compliments!
