Axolotls are known for their ability to grow back just about any body part that is bitten off by a predator, but the trigger ...

The adorable salamanders are helping scientists investigate a serious question: Could the human body be coaxed to regrow a ...

Could humans be capable of growing new limbs? Scientists are trying to figure that out with the aid of an unexpected resource ...

A better understanding of how these amphibians grow new appendages may lead to better wound healing—or even new limbs—in ...

Scientists claim human bodies already know how to regrow a limb because they have already made one during a body's ...

“We discovered it’s essentially a single enzyme called CYP26b1, that regulates the amount of tissue that regenerates,” Monaghan says. CYP26b1 breaks down retinoic acid, so when the gene that makes the ...

Molecular signals after severing an axolotl arm direct the remaining cells how to regrow the limb, offering potential ...

Axolotls are the gold medallists when it comes to limb regeneration. Researchers from Northeastern University have discovered ...

Human limb regeneration is likely far off in the future, but once scientists understand more about retinoic acid signaling, technology could help return this regenerative ability to human cells ...

What if the key to human limb regeneration wasn’t buried in sci-fi dreams—but already in your medicine cabinet? Scientists at Northeastern University have uncovered a breakthrough that’s ...

A new study reveals the key lies not in the production of a regrowth molecule, but in that molecule's controlled destruction.
