  2. Cell damage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_damage

    If a cell dies, the body will remove it and replace it with another functioning cell, or fill the gap with connective tissue to provide structural support for the remaining cells. The motto of the repair process is to fill a gap caused by the damaged cells to regain structural continuity.

  3. Immune system contribution to regeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immune_system_contribution...

    Immune system contribution to regeneration of tissues generally involves specific cellular components, transcription of a wide variety of genes, morphogenesis, epithelia renewal and proliferation of damaged cell types (progenitor or tissue-resident stem cells). However, current knowledge reveals more and more studies about immune system ...

  4. Regeneration in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration_in_humans

    In humans with non-injured tissues, the tissue naturally regenerates over time; by default, new available cells replace expended cells. For example, the body regenerates a full bone within ten years, while non-injured skin tissue is regenerated within two weeks. [2] With injured tissue, the body usually has a different response.

  5. Endogenous regeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endogenous_regeneration

    Endogenous regeneration in the brain is the ability of cells to engage in the repair and regeneration process. While the brain has a limited capacity for regeneration, endogenous neural stem cells, as well as numerous pro-regenerative molecules, can participate in replacing and repairing damaged or diseased neurons and glial cells.

  6. Healing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healing

    Medicine includes the process by which the cells in the body regenerate and repair to reduce the size of a damaged or necrotic area and replace it with new living tissue. The replacement can happen in two ways: by regeneration in which the necrotic cells are replaced by new cells that form "like" tissue as was originally there; or by repair in ...

  7. Regenerative medicine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_medicine

    Regenerative medicine also includes the possibility of growing tissues and organs in the laboratory and implanting them when the body cannot heal itself. When the cell source for a regenerated organ is derived from the patient's own tissue or cells, [3] the challenge of organ transplant rejection via immunological mismatch is circumvented.
