Fosl1 is vital to heart regeneration upon apex resection in adult Xenopus tropicalis

Abstract Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the world due to losing regenerative capacity in the adult heart. Frogs possess remarkable capacities to regenerate multiple organs, including spinal cord, tail, and limb, but the response to heart injury and the underlying molecular m...
