For centuries, researchers have realized that specific creatures can recover missing parts of their  bodies. Humans really share this capacity with creatures like the starfish and the newt. In spite of the fact that we can't replace a missing leg or a finger, our bodies are always regenerating blood, skin, and different tissues. The character of the powerful  cells that enable us to recover a few tissues was first revealed when explores different avenues regarding bone marrow in the 1950s built up the presence of foundational microorganisms in our bodies and prompted the advancement of bone marrow transplantation, a therapy now widely used in medicine. This disclosure brought trust up in the medicinal capability of recovery. For the first time in history, it became possible for physicians to regenerate a damaged tissue with a new supply of healthy cells by drawing on the unique ability of stem cells to create many of the body’s specialized cell types.
