Scientists reveal unprecedented insights into human limb development, including the many intricate processes that govern their formation. Human fingers and toes do not grow outward; instead, they form ...

Scientists have created a spatial atlas of the incredible process of human limb development, including steps that show digits emerging from a bud as cells recede, instead of growing outward. With ...

Hierarchical communication between cells with distinct positional memories orchestrates the regeneration of missing limb structures in axolotls.

Fingerprints are among the most distinctive features of human biology, serving as enduring identifiers for individuals and as windows into genetic and developmental processes. The three major ...

By Priyanjana Pramanik, MSc. A large Chinese cohort study identifies early pregnancy as a sensitive window during which ...

To shed light on the principles that govern tissue dynamics across species, RIKEN biologists have developed a new method for analyzing the development of vertebrate limbs. These principles could help ...

Perhaps like a limb with multiple digits? The team will also try reintroducing the genes in tetrapod species, which normally lack the genes, to see how they affect limb development. "We will continue ...

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESS Newswire / December 23, 2025 / Nature Cell Co., Ltd., a biotechnology company focused on adult stem cell therapies (Chairman: Jeong-Chan Ra), announced the full-scale ...

Human fingers and toes do not grow outward; instead, they form from within a larger foundational bud, as intervening cells recede to reveal the digits beneath. This is among many processes captured ...
