Adult regenerative defects arise from discordant scaling of signal dependent growth and patterning

Pietro Tardivo, Fabrizio Olmeda, Martin Nuamah Asare…·Elly Margaret Tanaka

The paper investigates how scaling of signaling pathways affects adult organ regeneration, finding that mismatched scaling of SHH and Wnt9a signaling prevents digit regeneration in large blastemas.

Static morphogen scaling enables proportional growth in tissue growth model inspired by axolotl limb regeneration

Natalia Lyubaykina, Dunja Knapp, Pietro Tardivo…·Benjamin M. Friedrich

The paper investigates morphogen scaling mechanisms in axolotl limb regeneration, showing static scaling ensures proportional growth while dynamic scaling does not.

Canonical Wnt Signaling and the Regulation of Divergent Mesenchymal Fgf8 expression in Axolotl Limb Development and Regeneration

Giacomo L Glotzer, Pietro Tardivo, Elly Margaret Tanaka

This study investigates the regulation of mesenchymal Amex.Fgf8 expression in axolotl limb development and regeneration, finding that Wnt signaling shifts its target gene activation from epidermis to mesenchyme.
