Question: Using this information and research do you think it would be possible to heal wounds at a faster pace and regenerate tissues for fatal wounds or even whole organs for transplanting?

That is a great question. I think it is possible to harness biased protein synthesis for regenerative medicine. It would be important to figure out first which tRNAs are essential for the synthesis of proteins involved in wound healing and regeneration. Much research is needed to understand how to manipulate tRNA levels for therapeutic purposes with patient safety in mind. I think in the future, we will be able to turn on/off specific tRNAs to help support the synthesis of proteins needed for different purposes including healing and regeneration.
