title: Limb regeneration: re-entering the cell cycle.
abstract: Understanding the cellular plasticity that enables urodeles to regenerate many tissues is important for determining why mammals repair those same tissues with scar. The answer may lie partly in a recently discovered differential responsiveness of urodele cells to factors present in serum at the wound site.
