Eating is one of life’s few constants: If you’re not eating right now, you’ll certainly be eating something within a few hours. But when and how often we should eat is still not fully understood.

A new study reported in Nature has determined that the amino acid cysteine could promote regeneration among cells in the small intestine. The work showed that cysteine can activate an immune signaling ...

Researchers have shed new light on how tissues in the body are repaired following the damage and premature death of tissue cells. As our bodies grow and develop, cells naturally die off where they are ...

Researchers find that senescent cells promote the dedifferentiation of muscle tissue and enhance limb regeneration in salamanders, challenging our understanding of cellular senescence. Senescent cells ...

The liver is the only internal organ that can regenerate itself. Remarkably, even if 70 percent of the liver is removed, its tissue can regrow into a full-sized organ within a matter of months. By ...

Hierarchical communication between cells with distinct positional memories orchestrates the regeneration of missing limb structures in axolotls.

Scientists identify specific genes involved in zebrafish sensory hair cell regrowth, providing new insights that could inform future research into hearing loss treatments. While humans can regularly ...
