Back in the spring of 1953, Dr Sakai Inoue noticed an adult salamander with a hard mass on its stomach. He removed the mass, which turned out to be malignant. Then he injected tissue from the mass into healthy animals. Again, cancer developed. In the work that followed, Inoue and Singer knew from electron micrographs that bacteria were involved, bacteria which stained acid fast: mycobacteria. Inoue inoculated three other types of mycobacteria into healthy animals. All came down with cancer—something that did not happen when other germs such as staphylococcus or streptococcus were used. Amazingly, Inoue and Singer even noted regressions in some of the cancers, especially if very dilute solutions of the germs were used to initiate them. Furthermore, since cancers stemming from "carcinogens" were structurally identical to mycobacteria- induced cancers, the investigators suggested that such "carcinogens" might merely be factors that activate pre- existing infection." The phages inside mycobacteria are viruses known to be activated by carcinogens such as UV light and chemicals.” Mankiewicz, five years previously, had shown that these phages, once activated, could cause pre-malignant changes in mammalian tissue.” Inoue and Singer's study should have convinced Livingston's opponents once and for all of the veracity of her results, and that she was not mistaking common contaminants such as staphylococcus or streptococcus for the cancer germ...but it did not. Continued next issue... Lawrence Broxmeyer, MD, is an internist and medica researcher. He was on staff at New York affiliate hospitals o' SUNY Downstate, Cornell and New York universities for wel over a decade, his work including extensive treatmen immediately prior to and in the midst of America's AIDS epidemic. In conjunction with colleagues in San Francisco and at the University of Nebraska, he first pursued, as lead author and originator, a novel technique to kill AIDS mycobacteria with outstanding results (see The Journal of Infectious Diseases 2002 Oct 15; 186[8]:1155-60). Recently he contributed a chapter regarding these findings in Sleator and Hill's textbook Patho-biotechnology, published by Landes Bioscience. Dr Broxmeyer's research covers the mos challenging medical problems of our times, including AIDS, Alzheimer's disease, bird flu, cancer, Creutzfeldt-Jakob and "mad cow" diseases, diabetes, heart disease, Parkinson's disease, swine flu, tuberculosis and more. He is the founder and director of The NY Institute of Medical Research in Bayside, New York, USA.
