Mice appeared immune to cancer
Mice carrying a gene which appears to make them invulnerable to cancer may hold the key to safer and more effective treatments for humans.
The new breed, created with a more active "Par-4" gene, did not develop tumours, and even lived longer, said the journal Cancer Research.
University of Kentucky researchers said a human cancer treatment was possible.
Cancer Research UK said that more research would be needed to prove it didn't just work in mice.
