"Friendly Viruses" Shield Us From Infection
Wed, 22 May 2013 10:00:00 +0100 | Health News from Medical News Today
We have heard of friendly gut bacteria that help us digest food and are thought to be essential for gut development, but now, in a new breakthrough study, scientists in the US suggest we also carry friendly viruses that shield us from infection by dangerous bacteria like E. coli. First author Jeremy Barr, a biology post-doctoral Fellow at San Diego State University, and colleagues, write about this previously undocumented "immune system" in a paper published online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences this week...

New Insight Into How Pathogens Break Through A Host's Defenses

The Secret Of Regeneration May Be Revealed By Salamander Research
Wed, 22 May 2013 07:00:00 +0100 | Health News from Medical News Today
Salamanders' immune systems are key to their remarkable ability to regrow limbs, and could also underpin their ability to regenerate spinal cords, brain tissue and even parts of their hearts, scientists have found. In research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences researchers from the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute (ARMI) at Monash University found that when immune cells known as macrophages were systemically removed, salamanders lost their ability to regenerate a limb and instead formed scar tissue...
