According to a recent study by Duke University scientists, humans possess an uncanny ability to regrow cartilage in their joints, much like salamanders, which are known for their remarkable ability to recover from damage to their body. This process, according to a paper published in Science Advances, is linked to the presence of certain molecules in the body that encourage the … Continue reading Research reveals: Humans have a “salamander-like regenerative capacity” to regrow cartilage in joints
Cool science: Researchers have successfully observed how fish and amphibians regenerate tissue into their perfect original shape
Wouldn’t it be neat to regrow a lost limb without any trace of scar or trauma? Researchers have successfully observed how the skin cells of some fish and amphibians are capable of advanced tissue regeneration without scarring, retaining its perfect original form. The findings, published in the journal The Company of Biologists, hint at this mechanism’s potential application in human … Continue reading Cool science: Researchers have successfully observed how fish and amphibians regenerate tissue into their perfect original shape
