Different biological functions can be triggered by the application of electric fields and these include actuating cell movement, modulating the cell cycle which benefits wound healing and tissue regeneration. Currents can polarise a) single cells and b) tissues. Black arrows indicate the direction of the electrical currents whereas red arrows indicate the direction of the resulting polarised behaviour (Chang and Minc 2014)
