Abstract
Planarians are renowned for extraordinary regenerative abilities that are driven by stem cells maintained throughout their lives. In this issue of Cell, Zeng et al. report the prospective isolation of planarian pluripotent stem cells. Their work opens new directions for understanding how these remarkable cells are established, maintained, and activated.
