  2. Regeneration in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration_in_humans

    Nevertheless, this was a huge leap towards whole lung regeneration and transplants for humans, which has already taken another step forward with the lung regeneration of a non-human primate. [63] Cystic fibrosis is another disease of the lungs, which is highly fatal and genetically linked to a mutation in the CFTR gene.

  3. Regenerative medicine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_medicine

    A colony of human embryonic stem cells. Regenerative medicine deals with the "process of replacing, engineering or regenerating human or animal cells, tissues or organs to restore or establish normal function". [1]

  4. 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).

  5. Rejuvenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rejuvenation

    A salamander can not only regenerate a limb, but can regenerate the lens or retina of an eye and can regenerate an intestine. For regeneration the salamander tissues form a blastema by de-differentiation of mesenchymal cells, and the blastema functions as a self-organizing system to regenerate the limb. [13]

  6. Stem-cell therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem-cell_therapy

    Opposition to the use of human embryonic stem cells in research is often based on philosophical, moral, or religious objections. [24] There is other stem cell research that does not involve the destruction of a human embryo, and such research involves adult stem cells, amniotic stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells.

  7. Immune system contribution to regeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immune_system_contribution...

    Immune system contribution to regeneration of tissues generally involves specific cellular components, transcription of a wide variety of genes, morphogenesis, epithelia renewal and proliferation of damaged cell types (progenitor or tissue-resident stem cells). However, current knowledge reveals more and more studies about immune system ...

  8. 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.

  9. Regeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration

    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 Regenerative design , a process for resilient and sustainable development
