  • Stem Cells in Marine Organisms

    Edited by Valeria Matranga, Baruch Rinkevich ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Do real stem cells and stem cell lineages exist in lower organisms? Can stem cells from one organism parasitize the soma and/or the germ line of conspecifics? Can differentiated cells in marine organisms be re-programmed to regenerate tissues, organs and appendages through novel de-differentiation, transdifferentiation, or re-differentiation processes, leading to virtually all three germ layers, ...
