British researchers have stumbled upon what could be the cure for most cancers. An Immune cell that “carries a never-before-seen receptor which acts like a grappling hook, latching on to most human cancers, while ignoring healthy cells.”
“This was a serendipitous finding, nobody knew this cell existed,” Prof Sewell told The Telegraph.
“Our finding raises the prospect of a ‘one-size-fits-all’ cancer treatment, a single type of T-cell that could be capable of destroying many different types of cancers across the population. Previously nobody believed this could be possible.”
The report adds, “that not only would the treatment work for most cancers, but it could be shared between people, raising the possibility that banks of the special immune cells could be created for instant ‘off-the-shelf’ treatment in future.”
Both my father and uncle died from Pancreatic cancer. Calm down lefties; I was adopted.
Having watched Pancreatic cancer tear down a once sturdy and otherwise healthy man (in his 80’s) in just two months, any cure can’t come fast enough. I hope the research can be confirmed, approved, and developed on an accelerated schedule. I would not wish that or any other cancer on anyone.
