First we had a synthetic version of a peptide that was originally identified in lizards, Byetta.

Now it seems that amphibians could play a part in improving people's health including some cancers, diabetic ulcers and damaged blood vessels following strokes. Skin secretions from selective frogs/toads are being identified for their healing properties.
