abstract regeneration is a biological phenomenon, which takes place via two main mechanisms: first, dedifferentiation of mature cells followed by their differentiation into functional new cells and second, activation of endogenous somatic stem cells for regeneration of damaged or lost tissues. one of the best examples of healing process in mammals is the regeneration of damaged pinna in rabbits...

Planaria possess a population of pluripotent adult stem cells called neoblasts, capable of differentiating into all cell types required to regenerate entire animals from almost any fragment. The regeneration of different fragments is catalogued in a body of classical experiments by many eminent scientists. Here, we endeavour to explore these classical observations and insights and combine them ...

Effects of FK506 [5.0 mg/kg body weight (BW), subcutaneous, daily] on nerve regeneration and presence of macrophages in lesioned rat sciatic nerves were studied. Models of autologous nerve graft or a nerve crush lesion were used and regeneration was evaluated by immunocytochemistry (also used to detect ED1/ED2 macrophages) and sensory pinch reflex test, respectively. Treatment with FK506 did no...

context periodontal plastic surgery can help people improve their lives by addressing aesthetic parameters of their smile. much of what comprises a beautiful and appealing smile is influenced by emotion and personality; however, many structural elements of a smile can be improved through surgical intervention. evidence acquisition the end result often lends significant support to people who wis...

The curves of growth and of regeneration follow the same course, and can be represented by the same exponential equation. This is taken to substantiate the theory that growth and regeneration are essentially identical processes governed by the same laws. A common peculiarity of the curves of growth and of regeneration is that during a short period in the early stages of regeneration and of grow...

A map of the native vegetation remaining in São Carlos County was built based on aerial images, satellite images, and field observations, and a projection of the probable original vegetation was made by checking it against soil and relief surveys. The existing vegetation is very fragmented and improverished, consisting predominantly of cerrados (savanna vegetation of various physiognomies), sem...

The regeneration method of Khorana [J. Biol. Chem. 262 (1987) 9271] has been modified in order to study the effect of endogenous archaeabacterial lipids and, in particular, of glycocardiolipin (GlyC) in the refolding and chromophore regeneration of bacteriorhodopsin (BR). BR refolding and chromophore regeneration could be obtained in the presence of endogenous lipid mixtures containing or not c...

Nerve regeneration conditioned fluid is secreted by nerve stumps inside a nerve regeneration chamber. A better understanding of the proteinogram of nerve regeneration conditioned fluid can provide evidence for studying the role of the microenvironment in peripheral nerve regeneration. In this study, we used cylindrical silicone tubes as the nerve regeneration chamber model for the repair of inj...

a BBC 2013. Doctor Who chronicles the adventures of an extraterrestrial Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey. Although humanoid, the Doctor differs from you or me in many ways, not the least of which is the ability to navigate through space and time (using the TARDIS, an acronym for time and relative dimension in space, an erstwhile British police box). He also has two hearts and the capacity fo...
