In contrast to other mammals, the spiny mouse (Acomys) regenerates skin and ear tissue,
which includes hair follicles, glands, and cartilage, in a scar-free manner. Ear punch …

Tissue regeneration has been in the spotlight of research for its fascinating nature and
potential applications in human diseases. The trait of regenerative capacity occurs diversely …

Musculoskeletal injuries are common in humans. The cascade of cellular and molecular
events following such injuries results either in healing with functional recovery or scar …

Tissue regeneration capabilities vary significantly throughout an organism's lifespan. For
example, mammals can fully regenerate until they reach specific developmental stages, after …

Antlers are the most conspicuous trait of cervids and have been used in the past to establish
a classification of their fossil and living representatives. Since the availability of molecular …
