Feather on the Cap of Medicine

Through cyclic regeneration, feather stem cells are molded into different shapes under different physiological states. With its distinct morphology, context-dependent growth and experimental manipulability, the feather provides a rich model to study growth control, regeneration and morphogenesis in...

description Through cyclic regeneration, feather stem cells are molded into different shapes under different physiological states. With its distinct morphology, context-dependent growth and experimental manipulability, the feather provides a rich model to study growth control, regeneration and morphogenesis in vivo. Recent examples include novel insights revealed by transient perturbation with chemotherapeutic reagents and irradiation during feather growth.
