By: Mary Hubert. Introduction. In . this area of science, regeneration, scientists along with researchers are successfully regenerating fingertip for people as well as preparing for and are hopeful to do the same for skin on other limbs and even internal organs.  This regrowth process is made possible from a tissue found in pig bladder.  They have found success in combining this pig bladder tissue with a connective tissue, to make what is called extracellular matrix (ECM).  What happens is the ECM jump starts the body to regrow.  This ECM changes the body's thinking from fixing inflamed or injured cells to instead regrow them.  Researchers are hopeful that they can eventually, successfully, regrow entire limbs.  Along with researchers and doctors, the U.S. military has invested millions into this project to hopefully help injured soldiers regain lost limbs, muscle and burnt skin..

Dr Iram Tassaduq. ‘Connective tissue’ is the term traditionally applied to a basic type of tissue of mesodermal origin which provides structural and metabolic support for other tissues and organs throughout the body, also known as “Supporting tissue”..

Cartilage is avascular –no blood supply- heals very slowly. “Application of principles and methods of engineering and life sciences toward fundamental understanding of structure-function relationships in normal and pathological mammalian tissues and the development of biological substitutes to restore, maintain or improve tissue conditions.”. some beneficial. some potentially disease causing. immune system . – not an organ system, but a population of cells that inhabit all of our organs and defend the body from agents of disease. especially concentrated in the true organ system – .
