  2. Regeneration (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration_(biology)

    Regeneration in biology is the process of renewal, restoration, and tissue growth that makes genomes, cells, organisms, and ecosystems resilient to natural fluctuations or events that cause disturbance or damage. [1] Every species is capable of regeneration, from bacteria to humans.

  3. Regeneration in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration_in_humans

    Regeneration in humans is the regrowth of lost tissues or organs in response to injury. This is in contrast to wound healing, or partial regeneration, ...

  4. Neuroregeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroregeneration

    Guillain–Barré syndrome – nerve damage. Neuroregeneration in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) occurs to a significant degree. [5] [6] After an injury to the axon, peripheral neurons activate a variety of signaling pathways which turn on pro-growth genes, leading to reformation of a functional growth cone and regeneration.

  5. Regeneration (ecology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration_(ecology)

    In ecology regeneration is the ability of an ecosystem – specifically, the environment and its living population – to renew and recover from damage. It is a kind of biological regeneration . Regeneration refers to ecosystems replenishing what is being eaten, disturbed, or harvested.

  6. Wound healing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wound_healing

    Timing is important to wound healing. Critically, the timing of wound re-epithelialization can decide the outcome of the healing. [11] If the epithelization of tissue over a denuded area is slow, a scar will form over many weeks, or months; [12] [13] If the epithelization of a wounded area is fast, the healing will result in regeneration.

  7. Healing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healing

    The existing epithelial cells can replicate, and, using the basement membrane as a guide, eventually bring the kidney back to normal. After regeneration is complete, the damage is undetectable, even microscopically. [citation needed] Healing must happen by repair in the case of injury to cells that are unable to regenerate (e.g. neurons).

  8. Regeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration

    Regeneration (biology), the ability to recreate lost or damaged cells, tissues, organs and limbs Regeneration (ecology) , the ability of ecosystems to regenerate biomass, using photosynthesis Regeneration in humans , the ability of humans to recreate, or induce the regeneration of, lost tissue

  9. Starfish regeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starfish_regeneration

    Unidirectional regeneration is the simplest form of regeneration as the majority of the disk is intact, allowing the starfish to eat, move, and escape predators during the regeneration period. Unidirectional regeneration is also the most common form of regeneration exhibited by starfish as single arms are often removed by predators or shed ...
