Scientists have created a spatial atlas of the incredible process of human limb development, including steps that show digits emerging from a bud as cells recede, instead of growing outward. With ...

Human fingers and toes do not grow outward; instead, they form from within a larger foundational bud, as intervening cells recede to reveal the digits beneath. This is among many processes captured ...

Hierarchical communication between cells with distinct positional memories orchestrates the regeneration of missing limb structures in axolotls.

In a collaborative study, researchers from Kyushu University and Harvard Medical School have identified proteins that can turn or "reprogram" fibroblasts - the most commonly found cells in skin and ...

BEIJING, Jan. 8 (Xinhua) -- Chinese experts have published a single cell spatio-temporal map of human limb development, shedding light on the cell evolution path and the determination process of cell ...

The molecular feedback loops that program positional identity as salamander limbs develop and regrow could be harnessed for regenerative medicine. Read the paper: Molecular basis of positional memory ...

Atsuta and his colleagues confirmed that the fibroblasts were successfully reprogrammed into cells that can produce limb tissue. They detected three important proteins found in natural limb progenitor ...
