Flatworm regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Plošnjaci (Platyhelminthes) su skupina životinja koje pokazuju iznimnu sposobnost regeneracije, a uglavnom je zadržavaju tijekom cijelog života. Među njima virnjaci (Turbellaria) imaju najmoćniju i najistraženiju regeneraciju. Mogu regenerirati sva tkiva,

The evolution of protostome GATA factors: Molecular phylogenetics, synteny, and intron/exon structure reveal orthologous relationships [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background Invertebrate and vertebrate GATA transcription factors play important roles in ectoderm and mesendoderm development, as well as in cardiovascular and blood cell fate specification.

Starvation resistance in planarians: multiple strategies to get a thrifty phenotype

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 291, Issue 5, Page 965-985, March 2024.
Starvation resistance is a lifesaving mechanism for many organisms. The ability of planarians to shrink their body under fasting conditions represents a fascinating strategy in which the p53 transcription factor operates to adjust tissue homeostasis in accordance with food availability.

Efficient depletion of ribosomal RNA for RNA sequencing in planarians

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background The astounding regenerative abilities of planarian flatworms prompt steadily growing interest in examining their molecular foundation. Planarian regeneration was found to require hundreds of genes and is hence a complex process.

Selective amputation of the pharynx identifies a FoxA-dependent regeneration program in planaria

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Planarian flatworms regenerate every organ after amputation. Adult pluripotent stem cells drive this ability, but how injury activates and directs stem cells into the appropriate lineages is unclear.

Deep sequencing identifies new and regulated microRNAs in Schmidtea mediterranea [PDF]

open access: yesRNA, 2009
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in directing the differentiation of cells down a variety of cell lineage pathways. The planarian Schmidtea mediterranea can regenerate all lost body tissue after amputation due to a population of pluripotent somatic stem cells called neoblasts, and is therefore an excellent model organism to study the roles of ...

Origin and Evolution of Dishevelled [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Dishevelled (Dsh or Dvl) is an important signaling protein, playing a key role in Wnt signaling and relaying cellular information for several developmental pathways. Dsh is highly conserved among metazoans and has expanded into a multigene family in most

Two New Species of Freshwater Planarian (Platyhelminthes, Tricladida, Dugesiidae, Dugesia) from Southern China Exhibit Unusual Karyotypes, with a Discussion on Reproduction in Aneuploid Species

open access: yesJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Two new species of the genus Dugesia from Southern China are described by applying an integrative approach, including morphological, karyological, histological, and molecular information. In the molecular phylogenetic tree, the two new species, Dugesia pendula Chen & Dong, sp. nov. and Dugesia musculosa Chen & Dong, sp.

Sex-Biased Expression of MicroRNAs in Schistosoma mansoni [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Schistosomiasis is an important neglected tropical disease caused by digenean helminth parasites of the genus Schistosoma. Schistosomes are unusual in that they are dioecious and the adult worms live in the blood system.
