Many long‐lived species of animals require the function of adult stem cells throughout their
lives. However, the transcriptomes of stem cells in invertebrates and vertebrates have not …

10.7554/eLife.21052.001 Planarian neoblasts are pluripotent, adult somatic stem cells and
lineage-primed progenitors that are required for the production and maintenance of all …

PIWI proteins utilize small RNAs called piRNAs to silence transposable elements, thereby
protecting germline integrity. In planarian flatworms, PIWI proteins are essential for …

Background The astounding regenerative abilities of planarian flatworms prompt steadily
growing interest in examining their molecular foundation. Planarian regeneration was found to …

Propranolol administration to patients with pheochromocytoma results in a rise in blood pressure
and a drop of pulse rate. In conjunction with alpha receptor blockade to lower the blood …

In the 1920s, József Gelei proposed that chromosome pairing in flatworms resulted from the
formation of a telomere bouquet followed by the extension of synapsis from telomeres at the …

As the planarian research community expands, the need for an interoperable data organization
framework for tool building has become increasingly apparent. Such software would …

Planarians possess naturally occurring pluripotent adult somatic stem cells (neoblasts)
required for homeostasis and whole–body regeneration. However, methods for culturing …

Regeneration has long fascinated humanity, and its documentation has progressed from
simple descriptive observations to the intense molecular and cellular investigations of today. …

AMPHENONE was synthesized in 1950 by Allen and Corwin 1 and has been shown to
possess a high degree of biologic activity in animals 2 3 4 and man. In animals the compound …
