Self-Control of Inflammation during Tail Regeneration of Lizards
Journal of Developmental Biology, 2021 Lizards can spontaneously regenerate their lost tail without evoking excessive inflammation at the damaged site. In contrast, tissue/organ injury of its mammalian counterparts results in wound healing with a formation of a fibrotic scar due to ...
