Popis: Biochemical modifications in lipid concentration were studied in the planarian Dugesia tigrina (Girard) as a function of the regeneration process. The concentration of total lipids, triglyceride, phospholipid, cholesterol, lipase activity and labelled 14 C-cholesterol were measured in regenerating planarians at regular time intervals from the beginning of regeneration to the complete restoration of the whole animal. Lipid concentration was substantially modified during the regeneration period. Significant differences in terms of metabolic parameters were observed between cephalic and caudal segments.
