Science Finding Ways to Regrow Fingers

JoJaBuckeye

First we take Michigan--then the whole world!
Well, my gut reaction is that this can't possibly be good for Wendy's!

NEW YORK (AP) -- Researchers are trying to find ways to regrow fingers--and someday, even limbs--with tricks that sound like magic spells from a Harry Potter novel.
There's the guy who sliced off a fingertip but grew it back, after he treated the wound with an extract of pig bladder. And the scientists who grow extra arms on salamanders. And the laboratory mice with the eerie ability to heal themselves.

The early results of the testing on humans have not been very good. These guys used the powdered pig extract to grow new noses. :biggrin:

Perhaps it would be wise to ask Wendy. One look at that "salamander" and this statement must have old Hugh Hefner looking at life with a new level of entrepreneurial zeal...


Spievack said it's a little hard, as if calloused, and there's a slight scar on the end. The nail continues to grow at twice the speed of his other nails.
