Lizard tail regeneration represents a remarkable example of epimorphic regeneration in amniote vertebrates, offering insights into tissue repair processes that contrast sharply with the scarring ...
A team of researchers from the Keck School of Medicine of USC have published the first detailed description of the interplay between two cell types that allow lizards to regenerate their tails. This ...
A new study from USC Stem Cell scientists reveals how certain animals, such as zebrafish and lizards, can regenerate their hearing by reactivating dormant gene regulators. The discovery provides ...
This remarkable lizard can regenerate lost limbs — a feat that defies nature’s limits and offers new hope for medical advancements in human regeneration.
A team of researchers from the Keck School of Medicine of USC have published the first detailed description of the interplay between two cell types that allow lizards to regenerate their tails. This ...
Some species of lizards can detach their tails from their bodies when they feel threatened. This common defense mechanism can help lizards escape from threating situations by confusing or distracting ...
Lizards possess a remarkable survival strategy where their tails detach and continue to wriggle, distracting predators and allowing the lizard to escape. This ability, controlled by nerves within the ...
In the zebrafish inner ear, a cell type known as supporting cells (magenta) gives rise to new sensory hearing cells (blue). The study reveals a set of DNA control elements critical for supporting ...
