Skin patches keep alive for grafts spark cancer insight
Dr William T Summerlin reported skin tissue preserved in a nutrient culture can be grafted to humans and animals without rejection, potentially widening understanding of cancer survival. The technique, still experimental, allows skin from humans, pigs and rats to grow as living tissue in hosts, aiming to reveal how cancer persists in the body and how rejection might be controlled. The work, being replicated at Stanford Boston and The Netherlands, could pave future organ transplants and cancer therapies, though mechanism remains unknown and funding concerns loom.

Last American POWs Reach Home Amid Repatriation Efforts
Forty eight former American prisoners of war arrived in the United States aboard three flying hospital planes, as more POWs from North Vietnam were released. Officials expected 69 POWs still at Clark Air Base to depart on four more flights Sunday. The last known POW, Capt. Robert Thomas White, was anticipated to fly from Vietnam to Saigon and then to the Philippines. Veterans spoken of torture endured, including confinement and assault, underscored the emotional homecoming as crowds welcomed returning airmen at multiple bases.
