## Abstract For over two decades, we have been investigating a strong (ca. 20โ100 ยตA/cm^2^), outwardly directed electric current driven through the limb stump for the first few days following amputation in regenerating salamanders. This current is driven through the stump in a proximal/distal direc

Limb regeneration in the short-toes axolotl is impaired. Our goal was to characterize the regeneration process in this mutant by histological and immunocytochemical methods. Previous research indicates that age and a defective basement membrane may be instrumental factors in short-toes axolotl regen
## Abstract Urodele amphibians regenerate their limbs after amputation. Normally, only those parts of the limb distal to the plane of amputation are regenerated. However, retinoids are capable of inducing proximodistal (PD) duplication such that structures already present proximal to the plane of a
