Effector caspases stimulate regeneration in several model organisms. Schematic summary of the experiments in several model organisms establishing a role of apoptotic caspases for regenerative growth. In most of these cases, this type of apoptosis-induced proliferation is effector caspase-dependent. Inhibition of effector caspases blocks regeneration. For details, see text. Question marks denote points of uncertainty.
