PPT-Stem Cells regenerate new finger!

Biology 100 December 2013 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 bodys 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 US military has invested millions into this project to hopefully help injured soldiers regain lost limbs muscle and burnt skin. 57375e primer includes information about stem cells derived from embryonic and nonembryonic tissues Much of the information included here is about stem cells derived from human tissues but some studies of animalderived stem cells are also described Louis Carney III.
