The results of a 2020 study, published in the journal Science, suggest that mammals that have lost the ability to regenerate organs may still contain some regenerative genes.
On top of that, it may be possible to harness the rapid growth of antlers in other ways that could prove vital to researchers.
These so-called ‘mini antlers’ grow at around 2.75cm per day, making it one of the fastest regenerating tissues in the animal kingdom.
Mammals in general have lost the ability to regenerate organs and most other tissues for that matter, so the antlers could certainly provide a unique insight into how regenerative medicine for bones could work.
