Abstract
ABSTRACT Blastema formation, which is the first step of regeneration in adult Metazoa, is generally considered to be merely an accumulation of undifferentiated cells provided by mitotic activity, which occurs near the wound following amputation. Afterwards, these undifferentiated cells are thought to differentiate rapidly, thus affecting the organization of the regenerate.
