Developmental Biology Protocols
In vitro blastema culture (4): Sever the blastema and an adjacent segment of the
limb with iridectomy scissors and soak it for 30–45 min in a tissue-culture well
containing chelating solution (see Note 7). Transfer the blastema to another well

Fins into Limbs: Evolution, Development, and Transformation
Early grafting studies were typically performed with medium to late bud
blastemas, and results indicated that at that stage the blastema is more similar to
than different from a limb bud. An extensive experimental literature indicates that
the ...

Principles of Regenerative Biology
Muscle fibers at the amputation surface have lost their striations, and the areas
vacated by the formerly differentiated muscle fibers are becoming infiltrated with
immature-looking cells of the type that will ultimately constitute the blastema.

Principles of Regenerative Medicine
The dedifferentiated graft cells all have the same circumferential positional
identity and so do not sense any positional gap when they interact, leading to
failure of cell cycling and blastema formation. Normal regeneration ensues,
however, ...

Biology of Turbellaria: Experimental Advances
in about two days (Lindh, '57; Pederson, '58; Lender and Gabriel, '60), it is most
unlikely that neoblasts found in a regeneration blastema of this age include
dedifferentiated cells. The differentiation would occur probably after the second
or the ...

Principles of Development
Positional value along the proximo-distal axis is therefore of great importance,
and is at least partly retained in the blastema (see Section 14.1). The blastema
has considerable morphogenetic autonomy. If it is transplanted to a neutral
location ...

Essential Developmental Biology
With an emphasis throughout on the evidence underpinning the main conclusions, this book is suitable as the key text for both introductory and more advanced courses in developmental biology. A new approach to a widely taught subject.
