Part 2: Starfish: The Key to Regenerating Human Neurons?

This blog explores the fascinating ability of starfish to regenerate their neurons and how it can be used for healthcare. Starfish have the unique ability to grow new neurons, including sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons, as well as regenerate their entire nervous system from just one neuron. The process of starfish neuronal regeneration is not fully understood, but it is thought to involve stem cells, growth factors, and enzymes. This ability is being investigated for potential applications in treating spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, and neurodegenerative diseases. Ongoing research into starfish neuronal regeneration is likely to lead to exciting new developments in the future.
