Is it possible that humans can regenerate their limbs with the help of the zebrafish? This is something scientists are currently investigating as they research the regrowth capabilities of tail fins and other organs of the zebrafish. In this article, we discuss the zebrafish regeneration abilities and contributions to limb regeneration. Zebrafish The Zebrafish is part of … [Read more...]
Limb Regeneration With Proteins
Scientists have done a compelling research project, revealing how they have accomplished partial toe regeneration in mice using two proteins. This has involved successfully regenerating joints along with the tissue of bones with mice who had lost or damaged toes. The researchers feel this study shows powerful promise for applying limb regeneration on humans and amputees one … [Read more...]
Has Human Limb Regeneration Arrived? Scientists Regrow Frogs Legs Wearing A Bioreactor Device
In nature there are many examples of limb regeneration at work. The Mexican Axolotl can regrow its limbs in a matter of weeks, the Gecko Lizard that regenerates a new tail when it sheds it to escape predators. Or how about Newts that are able to pretty much replace whatever type of body tissue that they have lost. When it comes to the wild the regeneration capabilities of … [Read more...]
New Limb Regeneration and Axolotl Genome Research
The Axolotl which is native to central America has amazing healing powers where it can regrow lost limbs, organs, along with its spinal cord, eyes and even parts of its brain. In fact there is little it cannot do that does not impress scientists. Because of this researchers from around the world are building up improved mapping of the salamander's genome and … [Read more...]
Regrowing Human Body Parts with new Stem Cell Research
The Holy Grail of regrowing human body parts could well be within our reach, since a significant discovery in the science of stem cell research has been identified by experts. Scientists have found a single stem cell that is able to regenerate an entire organism, and is the cause of the planarian flatworm to regenerate its head along with its brain and other bodily … [Read more...]
