Breast Cancer Natural Treatment

A new drug has shown promising results against breast and prostate cancer cells and tumours that are resistant to conventional hormone-based treatments, according to research published in the British Journal of Cancer.

Cancers such as breast and prostate cancer are often fuelled by sex hormones, such as oestrogen or testosterone. Hormone therapy for breast or prostate cancer aims to reduce the levels of these hormones in the body, "starving" the cancer of these signals and halting tumour growth. Some cancers are resistant to this treatment from the outset while many build up a resistance to these drugs over time, their growth becoming hormone-independent - such cancers are a major challenge to treat.

Now, researchers have shown that a new drug - STX140 - directly targets hormone-independent cancer cells by initiating a natural suicide process within them.

NRI support for Gujarat CM

They may be far away from their home state in Gujarat but US-based supporters of Chief Minister Narendra Modi are not letting distance prevent them from launching a campaign for his electoral victory in the upcoming State Assembly election.

They have launched a massive campaign on the phone and via email asking NRI Gujarati's to encourage their family members in India to go out and vote for Modi.

Full-page advertisements have also been placed in local Indian papers. Non resident Indians do not have voting rights in India and US laws do not permit fundraising but many Modi supporters have left to campaign in Gujarat- a state that is flush with NRI remittances.

Despite being thousands of miles away from the political events of Gujarat organisers believe their campaign does have an impact.
