  1. #Deer #antlers, which are bone, #regenerate each year and can grow at a rate of up to 2.75 cm/day!

    Qin et al (2023) studied this and found that the #molecular machinery behind this phenomenon is also found in other #mammals (like #mice), but not in the non-mammals that they tested.

    This may have #clinical implications for developing new #bone #growth #research and #therapies (with caveats, of course).

    They developed the 1st lab model of 17q12 deletion syndrome, a copy number variant disorder associated with #neurodevelopmental disorders and #RenalCysts and #diabetes syndrome.
