Histological image data of limb skeletal tissue from larval and adult Ambystoma mexicanum

Abstract

The data presented in this article are related to the article entitled “Cartilage and bone cells do not participate in skeletal regeneration in Ambystoma mexicanum limbs” [1]. Here we present image data of the post-embryonic development of the forelimb skeletal tissue of Ambystoma Mexicanum. Histological staining was performed on sections from the intact limbs of young (6.5 cm) and old (25 cm) animals, and on dissected skeletal tissues (cartilage, bone, and periosteum) from these animals. Keywords: Cartilage, Bone, Periosteum, Limb, Ambystoma mexicanu
