Abstract
A neurosecretory fraction, isolated from regenerating Dugesia tigrina, significantly stimulates the number of cells entering mitosis in the blastema of posterior worm pieces. When this fraction was applied to regenerating worms in the presence of colchicine, a doubling of the mitotic index was observed.Keywords
