The specialist in regeneration—the Axolotl—a suitable model to study bone healing?
A. Polikarpova, A. Ellinghaus, et al.
This study reveals a new surgical technique to enhance limb healing in axolotls, demonstrating that stabilized femur osteotomies heal more efficiently than non-stabilized procedures. Conducted by A. Polikarpova and colleagues, it suggests endochondral ossification as a mechanism similar to mammals, paving the way for controlled bone healing experiments.
