Cancer Resistant Mice

Researchers at wake Forest University report White Blood Cells From Cancer-resistant Mice Cure Cancers In Ordinary Mice. Apparently they found a mouse in 1999 that was cancer resistant. Amazingly this resistance is genetic and transferable to normal mice. Now they just have to figure out how it works and if it can be made to do so in humans.
