Injury to one part of body can trigger healing response in another: Study

A groundbreaking study has revealed that an injury to one region of the body can activate a healing response in another part of the organism. The research, led by Bo Wang, an assistant professor of bioengineering at Stanford, shows that this whole-body synchronisation is crucial for wound healing and tissue regeneration in planarian worms.

Published in the journal 'Cell' on a recent date, the study provides groundbreaking evidence that there is a genetic basis for asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection.
