Two origins of blastemal progenitors define blastemal regeneration of zebrafish lower jaw.

Zebrafish possess a remarkable ability to regenerate complicated structures by formation of a mass of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells called blastema. To understand how the blastema retains the original structural form, we investigate cellular transitions and transcriptional characteristics of ce...
