| The regeneration in model organisms is applicable to humans as scientists can copy or use these ideas as a framework for future research. For example, using this idea of dedifferentiating cells, scientists are able to create induced multipotent stem cells out of fat cells. Through aspirating fat cells with two different solutions, the fat cells can convert back to a less specific state which can be used for wound healing. However, this cannot be used to regrow limbs, but this is a great step in the right direction for regenerative medicine.
