UC Berkeley and Caltech researchers identified a gene circuit in zebrafish that allows heart regeneration after injury. Using ...

Humans can't regenerate heart muscle damaged by disease, but scientists have long known that some animals, such as zebrafish, can.Researchers have now ...

Lizards, zebrafish, salamanders and tritons can regrow a tail, a fin, or even an entire limb after amputation. Cut a planarian into pieces, and you will end up with a bunch of them. Researchers at the ...

A new analysis found that red meat studies with industry links were more likely to report favorable results than those without them.

They discovered that the protein Hmga1 plays a key role in heart regeneration in zebrafish. In mice, this protein was able to restore the heart by activating dormant repair genes without causing ...

Researchers have successfully repaired damaged mouse hearts using a protein from zebrafish. They discovered that the protein Hmga1 plays a key role in heart regeneration in zebrafish. In mice ...
