Abstract
Muscles are traditionally considered in the context of force generation. Scimone et al. (2017), reporting in Nature, now examine muscles in a developmental setting and find unexpected roles for distinct planarian muscle fibers. The authors show that muscles provide patterning signals to promote regeneration and guide tissue growth after injury.Entities:
