www.science.org Species-specific oxygen sensing governs the initiation of vertebrate limb regeneration Why mammals cannot regenerate limbs like amphibians do presents a long-standing puzzle in biology. To uncover the underlying differences, we compared amputation responses of embryonic mouse (Mus...
