Abstract
Wounds in mammals commonly heal by scarring but retain latent capacity to regenerate. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Brewer, Nelson etal. reveal that heightened ability of spiny mice to regenerate after injury is attributed to molecular changes in the Hippo-YAP (yes-associated protein) pathway that protect wound fibroblasts from a persistent contractile state.
