Abstract
Recent advances in the field of amphibian limb regeneration have provi ded insights into its cellular and molecular events. This review summa rizes the development of cell lines from limb tissues and their applic ation to the study of transdifferentiation and limb regeneration. In a ddition, the availability of suitable retroviral vectors for salamande rs is discussed for it has opened new avenues for experimentation at t he molecular level.
