Regeneration Biology Explained explores the fascinating world of regeneration, the process by which organisms regrow lost or damaged body parts. This book delves into the diverse regenerative abilities seen across different species, from the remarkable limb regrowth of the axolotl to the whole-body regeneration of planarians. Unlocking these secrets could revolutionize regenerative medicine, offering potential therapies for tissue repair in humans.
The book emphasizes the cellular and molecular mechanisms driving regeneration, such as dedifferentiation and cell fate reprogramming, crucial for understanding how these processes occur.
This book stands out by taking a systems-level approach, integrating cellular and molecular mechanisms with the ecological and evolutionary context of regeneration. It avoids sensationalizing claims, focusing instead on verifiable data drawn from primary research, reviews, and established textbooks.
The book is structured into three main sections: an introduction to regeneration and model organisms, a dissection of cellular and molecular mechanisms, and an exploration of the translational potential of regeneration research.
The book progresses from introducing key concepts to exploring the potential for biotechnology and tissue engineering to stimulate regeneration in humans.
