This book provides a systematic overview of deer antler biology and the ten biomedical models derived from it. Deer antlers are unique mammalian bony organs: they are shed and fully regenerated each year, offering an exceptional opportunity to study natural organ regeneration; they grow at an extraordinary rate (up to 2 cm per day) without becoming cancerous; and they undergo a complete annual reversal of severe physiological osteoporosis, providing an unparalleled natural model for osteoporosis research. This book presents a timely and comprehensive review of advances in deer antler research over recent decades, compiling key findings into a cohesive and accessible resource. It serves as a valuable reference for graduate students, researchers, and professionals across the biomedical sciences. Volume I presents the fundamental biology of deer antlers, covering taxonomy, morphology, development, histology, vascularization, innervation, antlerogenic tissues, stem cells, and key endocrine-nutritional-environmental regulators, integrating classical anatomy with modern molecular insights to establish antlers as a model of mammalian organ regeneration.
