fredreload Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 (edited) Alright so, both hydra and starfish are capable of complete regeneration. But what would happen if stitch half of hydra and half of starfish together. Here is the below speculation. 1. The hydra and starfish cells fight to the death, each trying to take over the other in cell signaling war and immune response war. 2. The hydra and starfish grows into separate beings without fighting each other, hydra and starfish. 3. Also if you put human cells next to it would it attempt to take over the human cells?

squiggle Posted September 2, 2019 Posted September 2, 2019 Thats an intriguing thought but your presentation needs work and some backgroumd information would be nice.If you took this all the way you could publish a science article or record a youtube video.

Thanks for the response. It would require a cellular proliferation of a specific cell type. It would have an immune response as well. I don't think the mechanism of cellular transdifferentiation applies here so I am just leaving this thread be.
