[q]egeneration - the ability to recreate lost or damaged cells, tissues, organs or even limbs - has a limited capacity in mammals.

While skin and hair cells constantly renew themselves, unlike a newt, if a human loses a leg, there is no second chance.

But the discovery of a strain of mouse, the Murphy Roths Large (MRL), with remarkable regenerative capabilities has opened up the possibility that those properties could be transferred to other mammals. [/q]

great, now if they get caught in a trap, they'll either regen, or do a mouse-y mitosis.

either way, should be interesting to see what they come up with

Wow, neat stuff. The way I read it, the mouse couldn't regenerate limbs, correct?
