In a letter to the Journal of Investigative Dermatology , Georgetown University Medical Center ’s Michael Zasloff has express that dolphins have noteworthy restorative powers — which may be of use to humans as well .
dolphin who suffer shark snack seem to feel very little annoyance , and they ’re immune to infection and hemorrhaging . Plus when they heal , the form of their bodies return almost to normal , even though other animals would have vast , malformed scars .
Zasloff has proposed a number of different explanation for dolphins ’ healing powers . For instance , when dolphins dive , they divert blood away from their extremity , which also halt them from phlebotomize out ; and the dolphin ’s blubber may contain lifelike antibiotics and antimicrobial .
But what about dolphins ’ ability to heal major wounds while maintaining their contours ? Zasloff liken this feat to regeneration , rather than healing , saying “ the fix of a gaping wound to an appearance that is near normal involve the ability of the injure animal to knit newly forge tissues with the subsist fabric of adipocytes , collagen and elastic fibers . The mahimahi ’s healing is standardised to how mammalian foetus are able to heal in the womb . ”
Unfortunately , the healing appendage of dolphinfish has been poorly canvass , but hopefully we ’ll soon know more , and be capable to apply some of what we memorise to helping human beings .
