Cell, 2006•cell.comFish and amphibian hearts are known to regenerate after partial resection, but the molecular
mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. In this issue of Cell, Lepilina et
al.(2006) analyze regeneration in the zebrafish heart. Their work indicates that new
cardiomyocytes originate from undifferentiated progenitor cells and reveals a critical role for
the epicardium, the cellular layer that covers the heart.
