Planarian CREB-binding protein (CBP) gene family regulates stem cell maintenance and differentiation

Susanna Fraguas, Sheila Cárcel, Coral Vivancos, Ma Dolores Molina, Jordi Ginés, Judith Mazariegos, Thileepan Sekaran, Kerstin Bartscherer, Rafael Romero, Francesc Cebrià

This study identifies and functionally characterizes five CBP genes in planarians, showing their roles in stem cell maintenance and differentiation.

Hydrogen peroxide as regeneration-initiation signal that activates pERK to trigger planarian regeneration

Vincent Jaenen, Susanna Fraguas, Karolien Bijnens, Martijn Heleven, Tom Artois, Rafael Romero, Karen Smeets, Francesc Cebrià

The paper identifies hydrogen peroxide as an upstream signal initiating planarian regeneration by activating pERK and linking it to EGFR-MAPK/ERK pathway activation.

Smed-egfr-4 is required for planarian eye regeneration

Elena Emili, Macià Esteve Pallarès, Rafael Romero, Francesc Cebrià

This study shows that Smed-egfr-4 is required for the final differentiation of eye cells in planarians, not their specification, and supports the idea that EGFR pathways regulate progenitor differentiation.
