Salamander enzyme could one day let humans regrow organs and limbs | Mail Online: "Amputees could regenerate limbs and organs thanks to scientists who have come close to discovering how salamanders grow back lost legs and damaged organs.
Axolotl salamanders are now going under the knife - while anaesthetised - in experiments at the Hanover Medical School in Germany.
The hope is one day for their genes to be transplanted to people who lose limbs and organs only to see them re-grow."
