Texas gave birth to the modern oil industry, invented the handheld calculator and sent man to the moon. But can the Lone Star State cure cancer?
Texas is ready to try by investing $3 billion over the next decade in cancer research and prevention, which would make the state the gatekeeper of the second largest pot of cancer research dollars in the country, behind only the National Cancer Institute.
“I don't know anyone that would stand shoulder-to-shoulder with what they're trying to do,” said Robert Urban, executive director of the Koch Institute for Innovative Cancer Research at MIT.
That gee-whiz impression is what Texas leaders sought in 2007, when the state created the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas through an ambitious bond measure approved by voters. Lance Armstrong, champion cyclist and cancer survivor, sold the plan to voters, and Gov. Rick Perry said he dreamed of a day “we talk about cancer the same way we talk about polio.”
Texas is now putting out the call to scientists: Come and get the money.
Institute leaders say the money will fund drug developments, gamble on high-risk research turned away elsewhere and attract big-name scientists to Texas. Creating the first statewide clinical trial network, which could give cancer patients more access to experimental drugs, also is being discussed.
But so much money on the table — particularly in the hands of a state that's new to funding cancer research — has some researchers worried that politics and backroom deals will play a role in deciding who gets what. The agency will invest upward of $260 million a year on cancer research and $30 million in preventive services such as early detection screenings.
A sagging economy also makes some skittish about whether the state will follow through with funding for an entire decade.
“That $3 billion isn't in the bank,” said Dr. Tyler Curiel, executive director of the Cancer Therapy & Research Center at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. “What if the money isn't going to be there in the future?”
Curiel is among the hundreds of researchers who began writing applications last month for a slice of the $450 million Texas will hand out over the first two years. The first grants are expected to be awarded by spring.
The state also is hoping to lure more top scientists to Texas with $2 million offers for salary and research and is prepared to offer even more for “superstars.”
But once the money is doled out, the agency cautions, don't expect any overnight miracles.
“(We're) not going to bring new drugs to market during the first two years. Nor during the first four years,” said Dr. Alfred Gilman, the institute's chief scientific officer. “It will take a good deal of time.”
No other state comes close to the amount of cancer research dollars Texas has pledged. California voters in 2004 approved a $3 billion plan for a stem cell research agency, which opponents tied up in court for two years over the ethics of creating and destroying embryos from which the cells could be harvested.
Massachusetts in 2008 passed a $1 billion, 10-year initiative to fund life sciences research, but some have wondered about the viability of that big-ticket endeavor given the state's economic woes.
Texas, meanwhile, is doling out cancer research dollars at a time when funds nationwide have been flat or drying up. The National Cancer Institute handed out $3.14 billion in so-called extramural grants in fiscal year 2008, a slight drop from 2007 and down from $3.25 billion in 2005. The federal stimulus bill gave the NCI an additional $1.26 billion in grant money, but researchers say it's still not enough.

After receiving injections of genes that produce color-detecting proteins, two color-blind monkeys have seen red and green for the first time. Except in its extreme forms, color blindness isn't a debilitating condition, but it's a convenient stand-in for other types of blindness that might be treated with gene therapy. The monkey success raises the possibility of reversing those diseases, in a manner that most scientists considered impossible. 'We said it was possible to give an adult monkey with a model of human red-green color blindness the retina of a person with normal color vision. Every single person I talked to said, absolutely not,' said study co-author Jay Neitz, a University of Washington ophthalmologist. 'And almost every unsolved vision defect out there has this component in one way or another, where the ability to translate light into a gene signal is involved.' The full-spectrum supplementation of the squirrel monkeys' sight, described Wednesday in Nature, comes just less than a year after researchers used gene therapy to restore light perception in people afflicted by Leber Congenital Amaurosis, a rare and untreatable form of blindnessAfter receiving injections of genes that produce color-detecting proteins, two... more

Medimmune Patented H1N1 Swine Flu Virus Back in 2008
New York : According to Dr T Ott the Swine Flu patent is owned by none other than Medimmune who stands to profit around $151 million dollars from US taxpayers.
MedImmune
MedImmune, LLC, headquartered in Gaithersburg, Maryland, became a wholly owned subsidiary of AstraZeneca in 2007. Since being acquired, MedImmune has remained a Maryland-based biotechnology development enterprise.
It produces Synagis, a drug for the prevention of respiratory infections in infants, which accounted for $1.06 billion of its $1.2 billion in revenue for 2005, and FluMist, a nasal spray influenza vaccine introduced in 2004.
FluMist was approved for children two years of age and older in 2007, but initially was approved only for healthy people ages 5 to 49, a significant limitation because it eliminated a significant market -- the millions of young children who find injections objectionable. Sales of FluMist fell short of analysts' expectations for the first two years the drug was sold. FluMist was initially sold in a frozen form, which was difficult for doctors to store
According to MedImmune website they are making a signficant, rapid response with a vaccine to the H1N1 variant of influenza, known as Swine flu. In early June 2009 it won a Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) contract, worth $90m.
Under the contract with HHS, MedImmune will continue to make its seasonal FluMist vaccine and also develop a vaccine targeted specifically at the H1N1 virus MedImmune then won a second contract to test its nasal spray flu technology as a viable treatment for the H1N1.
And now according to Dr T Ott investigation Medimmune applied for and received the patient for Swine Flu Virus back in 2008.
But according to WHO "OFFICIALLY" H1N1 is created naturally and it's a new strain of influenza virus,first identified in April 2009.If so how could Medimmune get the patent for the same back in 2008 ?
In past we reported about how Baxter Files H1N1 Swine Flu Vaccine Patent a Year Ahead of Outbreak.

Cannabis Sativa will cure and prevent cancer and it is all over the world.
Cannabis Oil / Hash Oil made from the resin of cannabis plants is curing, preventing and managing cancers and other serious illnesses such as Lung cancer, Head Cancer Neck ,Cancer, Brain Cancer ,H1N1 Swine flu and H5N1 Avian flu to name a few. Studies as far back as the 1800's have shown that Cannabis has always had these properties. THC stops Cancer cells dead in their tracks stopping and reducing growth. When taken correctly (oral, topical) patients don't even feel the usual stoned effect that you would get from smoking Cannabis.
And considering that Cannabis is is a non - toxic substance if could be utilized and used rather than dangerous pharmaceutical treatments such as chemotherapy which studies show kills 1/4 of patients.Cannabis Sativa will cure and prevent cancer and it is all over the world.

Researchers first conducted an experiment in mice that had been engineered to carry three different grafts of human brain cancer. They injected the mice daily with the molecule tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) near the site of the tumors once each day. The chemical appeared to stimulate the cancerous cells to engage in a process known as autophagy, in which cells initiate their own breakdown.
"These results may help to design new cancer therapies based on the use of medicines containing the active principle of marijuana and/or in the activation of autophagy," researcher Guillermo Velasco said.
THC belongs to a class of chemicals known as cannabinoids, named after the cannabis (marijuana) plant in which they occur. It is the chemical responsible for the psychoactive effects of marijuana consumption.
In a followup experiment, the researchers extracted and analyzed brain tissue from two patients with an aggressive form of brain cancer known as "recurrent glioblastoma multiforme." The patients were treated with THC for either 26 or 30 days, then the researchers extracted and analyzed another sample.
After examining the brain tissue under an electron microscope, the researchers discovered that THC treatment resulted in death of cancerous cells but had no effect on healthy ones. The researchers were also able to discover the signaling pathway by which THC acts.
The research opens up the possibility that cannabinoid research could yield "a new family of potential antitumoral agents," the researchers wrote.
Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common and aggressive form of primary brain tumor. Without treatment, the average patient lives only three months after being diagnosed with the cancer. Treatment extends the average life expectancy after diagnosis by less than a year.Researchers first conducted an experiment in mice that had been engineered to carry... more

If you've ever had a hangover, you've probably thought about how far you'd go to make the pain go away -- that headache and the “everything-turned-up-to-11” feeling that hurts your eyes, your ears and your brain. From crazy promises (“If I live through this, I'm never drinking again”) to consuming your body weight in Gatorade, you may think you'd try anything to get rid of that hangover.
First off, the bad news: There is no such thing as a hangover cure. On the other hand, that hasn't stopped pretty much all of history from dreaming up ways to take the sting out of the morning after.
Here's a list of 10 of the wildest and most intriguing hangover cures. Most are disgusting concoctions of raw eggs and alcohol, but get down to number 3, 2, and 1 and your stomach will really turn!
No.3 - Deep-Fried Canaries
While the ancient Romans gave us all kinds of wonderful creations, they also filled the history books with some truly disturbing behavior. Make room in your mind next to the famous Roman orgies and gladiator battles for this bit of information: a staple food for the morning after drinking in ancient Rome was deep-fried canary. And if you think that sounds cruel and unappetizing, just wait till you see what their great-grandchildren dreamed up at No. 2 on our list.
No.2 - Dried Bull's Penis
If you're like us, the only way you can even imagine somebody eating dried bull's penis is on an episode of Fear Factor. The fact is, though, Sicilian men used to rely on this folk remedy to shake off the haze from a long night of the vino. Between the food, the cars and our own Mr. Mafioso, we can be thankful to the Italians for all kinds of good things -- a great hangover cure isn't one of them. And while this may sound like the grossest thing a person could ingest to cure a hangover, that “prize” definitely goes to our American-bred hangover cure at No. 1.
No.1 - Rabbit-Dropping Tea
As far as historical hangover cures go, this takes the cake. Sure, eating a bull's penis is nasty enough, but to actually cook with droppings -- blecch! Drinking rabbit-poop tea was a famous cure in the Old West. The drink was popular at the time -- cowboys weren't known to say no to a drink. There are tales of all sorts of heroes of the Wild West tending their hangovers with this vile concoction. And even though we normally approve of anything that was good enough for Billy the Kid and Doc, there isn't a hangover in the world that would make us go near this stuff. We take our 10-gallon hats off to the men and women of the Wild West -- this is hands down the most legendary hangover cure of all.

Turns out there is a possibility that lice could prevent asthma, after research conducted on Lab mice showed that those with the most lice, had calmer immune systems than those with any of the parasites.
The study provides evidence to support the 'hygiene hypothesis', which describes that a having a hyper-clean lifestyle can lead to asthma. It also puts forward the concept that the immune system developed as a result of high levels of parasite infestations in the body.
