Description
Model organisms such as Lymnaea stagnalis are often helpful in studying microscopic physiological phenomena such as neural regeneration. Here, we investigated the relationship between release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by neurons and glial cells following crushing of a peripheral nerve trunk and regenerative outgrowth of the interneuron LPeD1. ROS emitted from crush sites, visualized using specific fluorescent probes, was positively correlated with neuronal sprouting of LPeD1 identified using iontophoretically labelled axons via live-cell imaging
