Neural regulation in tooth regeneration of Ambystoma mexicanum

Abstract The presence of nerves is an important factor in successful organ regeneration in amphibians. The Mexican salamander, Ambystoma mexicanum, is able to regenerate limbs, tail, and gills when nerves are present. However, the nerve-dependency of tooth regeneration has not been evaluated. Here,...
