Overlooked Immune Cell Kills Deadliest Lung Cancer in Lab Tests

Original: An Overlooked Immune Cell Killed The Deadliest Form of Lung Cancer in Lab Tests https://www. sciencealert.com/an-overloo

Researchers report that a little-studied immune cell destroyed small cell lung cancer, the deadliest form of the disease, in laboratory tests. The findings, covered by ScienceAlert, suggest an overlooked branch of the immune system could point toward new treatments for a cancer with notoriously poor survival rates. Results are early-stage, and the effect has so far been shown only in lab conditions rather than in patients.

Why now: A promising early-stage finding against the deadliest lung cancer is drawing attention from science readers.
