  • Title: Eye enucleation and regeneration of neural retina in axolotl larvae (Ambystoma mexicanum).
    Author: Yew DT.
    Journal: Anat Anz; 1985; 158(3):217-29. PubMed ID: 4014704.
    Abstract:
    The eyes of Axolotl larvae were enucleated at stages 30 and 37. Animals with single dorsomedian eyes resulted in the first case (i.e. stage 30). When a piece of pigment epithelium was re-implanted into stage 37 animals at the site of the lesion, limited regeneration was observed when the implant formed a vesicle, but, when the pigment epithelium remained "open" regeneration of the neural retina was extensive. The possible resons for this difference was discussed.
