Differential effects of 3,5-T2 and T3 on the gill regeneration and metamorphosis of the Ambystoma mexicanum (axolotl) [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 Thyroid hormones (THs) regulate tissue remodeling processes during early- and post-embryonic stages in vertebrates. The Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) is a neotenic species that has lost the ability to undergo metamorphosis; however, it can be ...

Gonadal Development in Larvae of the Paedomorphic Ambystoma mexicanum (Amphibia: Urodela). [PDF]
J MorpholThis research analyzes the gonads of Ambystoma mexicanum larvae of both sexes, revealing significant changes such as the onset of vitellogenesis in females at 9 months of age and oocytes with signs of maturity at 12 months. In males, gonadal maturity occurs earlier, with a notable cephalocaudal and lateromedial testicular regionalization, and ...

Neural regulation in tooth regeneration of Ambystoma mexicanum [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 The presence of nerves is an important factor in successful organ regeneration in amphibians. The Mexican salamander, Ambystoma mexicanum, is able to regenerate limbs, tail, and gills when nerves are present.

FGF2 rescues denervation-induced muscle atrophy in Ambystoma mexicanum [PDF]
Skeletal MuscleBackground Denervation occurs as a consequence of disease or injury and is typically accompanied by skeletal muscle atrophy. Although the relationship between nerves and muscle atrophy has been studied, the direct molecular contributions of nerves remain

MRI- and histologically derived neuroanatomical atlas of the Ambystoma mexicanum (axolotl) [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Amphibians are an important vertebrate model system to understand anatomy, genetics and physiology. Importantly, the brain and spinal cord of adult urodels (salamanders) have an incredible regeneration capacity, contrary to anurans (frogs) and the rest ...
