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.
