It’s a well known fact that salamanders are able to re-grow limbs after amputation. However, the axolotl salamander from Mexico is able to quickly regenerate functioning jaws, skin, organs and parts of its brain and spinal chord – in fact, at a much faster rate than its common cousins. Should the salamander becomes injured, it covers the wound with a stem-cell like growth, from which grows the replacement body part. “Humans do repair tissue but they don’t repair it perfectly,” says Elly Tanaka from the Centre for Regenerative Therapies in Germany. “The axolotl under certain injury conditions can go into kind of a mode where they repeat the process of the embryo.”

Because of its unique regenerative abilities, the axolotl salamander is the focus of a years-long study by a team of scientists led by Dr. Tanaka. The goal of the researchers is to gain insights into future regenerative treatments for human medicine, for example, to repair spinal cord injuries. Their work is being supported the Department of Defense, which has stepped up to the plate with a $6.25 million grant in the hopes of finding better ways to help wounded veterans heal.

Their research involves experiments that allow them to watch the lizard’s regenerative process up close. Toward this end, Dr. Tanaka has succeed at inserting the green-fluorescent protein GFP marker into the genome of the axolotl, thereby enabling her and her team to observe in detail the fate of individual cells and tissues. The scientists are also mapping the genome of the axolotl, which, surprisingly, is ten times larger than the human genome. Their goal is to map the regenerative abilities of the lizard, then insert the trait in humans – a long-term objective to be sure, but one that Dr. Tanaka and her team feel confident they can achieve.

Highlights from Dr. James Oschman’s presentation at the Annual World Congress of Anti-Aging Medicine. Dr. Oschman believes that a new milestone in medicine is upon us, harnessing the diagnostic and therapeutic use of energy. This new technology which is entering mainstream medical use stimulates the repair and regeneration of one or more tissues.

At the upcoming Anti-Aging Conference: Clinical Applications for In-Office Procedures, Dr. Oschman will co-chair, Energy Medicine on Wednesday September 9th, 2009. Energy medicine technologies are becoming more and more popular as components of anti?aging practices, and attract more and more patients. We will explore the practical aspects of exciting new energy modalities as seen from perspectives ranging from general practice, cardiology, integrative medicine and your bottom line. New methods are always challenging for the physician: what are the potential costs in terms of time and money; what are the potential costs if I do not look into these methods? To help you resolve these challenges, this symposium will deal with cutting edge techniques that are based on physics, resonance, biofeedback and epigenetics. Key accomplishments include reduction of pain and oxidative stress, relaxation, and rapid resolution of both acute and chronic inflammatory conditions associated with diseases of aging.
