A new type of immune cell, which kills most cancers, has been discovered by accident by British scientists, in a finding, which could herald a major breakthrough in treatment.

In laboratory studies, immune cells equipped with the new receptor were shown to kill lung, skin, blood, colon, breast, bone, prostate, ovarian, kidney, and cervical cancer.
