Bad penny: Cancer's thirst for copper can be targeted

Posted: at 3:49 am

Drugs used to block copper absorption for a rare genetic condition may find an additional use as a treatment for certain types of cancer, researchers at Duke Medicine report.

The researchers found that cancers with a mutation in the BRAF gene require copper to promote tumor growth. These tumors include melanoma, the most dangerous form of skin cancer that kills an estimated 10,000 people in the United States a year, according to the National Cancer Institute.

"BRAF-positive cancers like melanoma almost hunger for copper," said Christopher M. Counter, Ph.D., professor of Pharmacology & Cancer Biology at Duke University School of Medicine and senior author of the study published April 9, 2014, in Nature.

The BRAF gene is involved in regulating cell division and differentiation. When mutated, the gene causes cells to grow out of control. Using animal models and cells, Counter and colleagues found that when they experimentally inhibited copper uptake by tumors with the BRAF mutation, they could curb tumor growth.

They achieved similar results with drugs used to treat patients with Wilson disease, a genetic disorder in which copper builds up in the tissue, primarily the brain and liver, causing damage.

"Oral drugs used to lower copper levels in Wilson disease could be repurposed to treat BRAF-driven cancers like melanoma, or perhaps even others like thyroid or lung cancer," said Donita C. Brady, Ph.D., lead author of the study.

Already, a clinical trial has been approved at Duke to test the copper-reducing drugs in patients with melanoma, although enrollment has not yet begun: http://1.usa.gov/1qefSJm

"This is a great example of how basic research moves from the laboratory to the clinic," Counter said.

Wicked offends again with fat girls are harder to kidnap!

Posted: at 3:49 am

Topics: advertising standards bureau, offensive, wicked, wicked campervans

WICKED Campers have copped another caning for offensiveness, but their politically incorrect slogans will be a sight on the Sunshine Coast for a while yet.

Although a call last year to exclude the infamous campervans from Coast caravan parks won support, no such ban has been implemented.

The State Government is also still considering possible controls on outdoor advertising that may apply to the campervans.

Wicked Campers have been the subject of complaints for their trademark cheeky slogans, which include racial and sexual jokes and sometimes foul language.

The Advertising Standards Board recently upheld a complaint about a van scribed with "fat girls are harder to kidnap!"

The complainant said the slogan was offensive and objected to kidnapping being used as humour.

The board found that the reference to fat girls was "tasteless" and "not nice", but did not discriminate against or vilify anyone.

However, it did find that the reference to kidnap was "making light of and encouraging" behaviour that was not in line with community standards.

Sunshine Coast Mayor Mark Jamieson expressed support for a ban on offensively worded vehicles last year, saying standards should be upheld.

Anti-Censorship Awards Go To White House, Feds

Posted: at 3:48 am

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) The White House and the federal government have won the dubious honor of a "Jefferson Muzzle" for snooping on the news media and limiting access.

The censorship-shaming awards announced Wednesday by the Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression are intended to draw a harsh light on people and institutions that engage in the most egregious affronts to the First Amendment.

Other recipients included the governing board of Kansas' public universities. A new board policy says faculty members who use social media to disrupt "harmony among co-workers" or make comments deemed "contrary to the best interest of the university" can be fired. The policy was a reaction to a faculty member's statements on his personal Twitter.

The awards are announced each year on or near the April 13 birthday of Jefferson, a free-speech advocate and the nation's third president. Winners get a T-shirt with Jefferson's likeness and a black rectangle over his mouth.

Josh Wheeler, director of the Charlottesville center, said in the Muzzles' 23-year history, he can't remember a time in which free press issues dominated the awards.

"From the White House to the statehouse, from universities to high schools, members of the press have had to defend against a variety of challenges, some never seen before," Wheeler said in a statement.

The White House collected a Muzzle for limiting photographers' access at events deemed private. The presidents of the American Society of Newspaper Editors and The Associated Press have urged their members to stop using White House handout photos and video, saying they amount to propaganda.

The Obama administration has said the handouts allow the public greater access to the inner workings of the administration.

The U.S. Justice Department was singled out for seizing telephone records of AP reporters and editors and for falsely labeling a Fox News reporter a criminal co-conspirator to obtain a search warrant for his phone records and emails.

The Justice Department announced in February it was revising its rules for obtaining records from the media in leak investigations to give news organizations an opportunity to challenge any subpoenas or search warrants in federal court.
