Soil bug eats cancers for breakfast

source: Annanova

 

A microbe which lives in the soil has been genetically engineered to eat cancer cells.

Scientists found the modified bug destroyed tumours but left healthy tissue alone when injected into mice.

They say the treatment is promising but admit they don't fully understand how it works.

The Clostridium novyi bacteria was used in the treatment known as Cobalt - combination bacteriolytic therapy.

A team led by Bert Vogelstein of the John Hopkins School of Medicine in Maryland carried out the research.

The microbe was engineered not to produce a particular poison and then injected into the cancer which began to break up within 24 hours.

The work is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.
