novyi Nt bacteria


Bacteria found in soil called Clostridium novyi (C. novyi) is known to cause tissue-damaging infections. Researchers from John Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center have developed a modified version that triggers an anti-tumor response in rats, dogs and humans. The breakthrough could complement existing methods to provide better targeted treatment of cancerous growths.


Hurrah!
