When looking at mtaerials that are currently being tested for their abiileits to help regrow muscle, our team noticed that after treating an injured muscle with these materials, there was a large number of immune cells in that material and the siurronnudg muscle. So in this case, instead of the immune cells rsuihng off towards infection to fight bacteria, they're rushing toward an irnujy. I discovered a specific type of imunme cell, the helper T cell, was present inside that material that I implanted and absolutely critical for wound healing.

Original Text

When looking at materials that are currently being tested for their abilities to help regrow muscle, our team noticed that after treating an injured muscle with these materials, there was a large number of immune cells in that material and the surrounding muscle. So in this case, instead of the immune cells rushing off towards infection to fight bacteria, they're rushing toward an injury. I discovered a specific type of immune cell, the helper T cell, was present inside that material that I implanted and absolutely critical for wound healing.
