preLights highlights: Canonical mTOR signaling supports complete fin regeneration in Senegal bichir
This article from preLights highlights a preprint by de Sousa et al. investigating how the Senegal bichir (a primitive fish) regenerates its fins after amputation. The research focuses on the role of canonical mTOR signaling in supporting complete fin regeneration. The preprint explores the cellular and molecular signals involved in this regenerative process, providing insights into the mechanisms that enable full regrowth of fins in this vertebrate model.
