PG - 423-434 LID - 10.1007/978-1-4939-7802-1_15 [doi] AB - Detection of cell proliferation based on the incorporation of 5'-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) has become a standard approach for studying stem cell and progenitor cell populations in developing and adult tissue. In this chapter, we describe three BrdU administration methods for planarians and a staining protocol combining BrdU detection with whole-mount fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Collectively, these protocols enable the combined analysis of BrdU-incorporation and endogenous gene expression, as for example during lineage tracing applications.
