City of Hope's Walk for Hope Nationally Presented by Staples.
Join us in the movement to save women's lives by registering at www.walk4hope.org.
For hundreds of thousands who face women's cancers each year, hope is a precious thing. More than 280,000 women were diagnosed with breast and gynecologic cancers last year and more than 65,000 women died.
These mothers, daughters, sisters and wives count on places like City of Hope where innovative research cultivates new, better therapies on the path to cures.
This research is funded by the effort of people like you, who either walk alone or create teams of friends, co-workers, family members, sorority sisters and fraternity brothers to raise these much needed funds.
Walk for Hope is committed to fueling women's cancers research, treatment and education programs at City of Hope. With your help, we can build a future without women's cancers.
The 5K and Leisure Walk routes wind through the beautiful City of Hope campus, where discoveries of tomorrow happen today. Event festivities include sponsor giveaways, live music and entertainment, an area for children and families, team photos and more.
Register now at www.walk4hope.org

Hope for New Anti Cancer Drugs
Hope for New Anti Cancer Drugs
A FATTY acid found in oily fish could be combined with a commonly used anaesthetic to develop drugs to treat breast cancer, according to research published in the journal Breast Cancer Research early last month.
Compounds of Omega-3 fatty acids and propofol reduce the ability of breast cancer cells to develop into malignant tumours, inhibiting cancer cell migration by 50 per cent and significantly reducing their metastatic activity. These new compounds could be developed into a new family of anti-cancer drugs.
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among Pakistani women, having an incidence of 15 to 26 per cent in the 30-49 years age group. It is the most frequent malignancy in women, as it accounts for 38.5 per cent of all cancers.
About half (43.7 per cent) of all breast cancers are locally advanced. The Pakistani population is reported to have the highest rate of breast cancer in Asia and has one of the highest rates of ovarian cancer worldwide. The age-standardized (global) rate of breast cancer in Karachi is 51.7 per 100,000 per year. All other Asian registries report breast cancer rates of less than 40 per 100,000 per year, except for Manila in the Philippines (47.7 per 100,000 per year).
The breast cancer rates reported in the provinces of neighbouring India — ranging from 8.7 per 100,000 per year in Barshi, Paranda and Bhum to 28.2 per 100,000 per year in Bombay — are considerably lower than those of Pakistan. An estimated 215,990 new cases of breast cancer were estimated in 2004 in the US.
Factors predisposing to the development of breast cancer in the US and Europe include late pregnancies, lack of breastfeeding and having few children. However, these parameters are not particularly relevant in Pakistan, where 70 per cent of patients have no identifiable risk factors.
There is a need to collect better information pertaining to the epidemiology of cancers in Pakistan, since it is believed that their incidence is rising. It is also essential to collect information about the dietary habits of people in Pakistan.
Institutes in Pakistan, including Shaukat Khanum Hospital and Research Centre in Lahore, and the Aga Khan University and the HEJ Research Institute in Karachi have the resources to carry out collaborative research on the beneficial effects of nutrition and guide the people to prevent cancers.
Meanwhile, the oils of certain cold-water fish have a well-documented role in inhibiting or preventing cancer. Epidemiological evidence strongly links fish oil to low incidences of several cancers. The anti-cancer properties of fish oils have been attributed to the Omega-3 fatty acids, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Proof of these fatty acids as anti-cancer agents has been substantiated by dietary studies on many types of animals, including humans and in cultured cells.
A number of reports have indicated that DHA’s anti-cancer properties are not directly due to cytotoxicity, but rather to the fatty acid’s ability to induce apoptosis (programmed cell death). However, the molecular mechanism for the anti-cancer actions of omega-3 fatty acids remains unknown. Understanding the mechanistic effects of Omega-3 lipids may aid in the development of new cancer therapies.

However, the molecular mechanism for the anti-cancer actions of omega-3 fatty acids remains unknown. Understanding the mechanistic effects of Omega-3 lipids may aid in the development of new cancer therapies.
My research group at the Methodist Research Institute and Indiana University in Indianapolis, United States, reported in the June issue of Breast Cancer Research (http://breast-cancer-research.com/) that the Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA boost the anti-cancer activity of the drug propofol when conjugated with the drug.
Propofol is an anesthetic with antioxidant properties that inhibits cancer cell migration by 5 to 10 per cent. Omega-3 fatty acids such as DHA and EPA have a minimal effect on cancer cells when applied alone. The results of the study show that propofol and DHA or EPA has a much more significant effect on cancer cells when used in combination, as conjugates, than when used alone.
The conjugates inhibit cancer cell adhesion by 15 and 30 per cent respectively, reduce cell migration by 50 per cent and increase apoptosis by 40 per cent. In conclusion, the study showed that the novel propofol-DHA and propofol-EPA conjugates reported might be useful for the treatment of breast cancer.

Lynette’s Hope
Lynette’s Hope
”Now we have to live whatever we have ever preached to others, ” Lynette Hoppe wrote in her journal. ”I have been classified as having Stage 4 cancer (of four stages), and my prospects are rather grim. Nonetheless, I remain cheerful and hopeful and want to spend what years God grants me in joy and thanksgiving, serving as and wherever I can.”With these sober yet hopeful words, Orthodox missionary to Albania Lynette Hoppe began the last journey of her fruitful life. In frank and poignant prose, Lynette”s journals, newsletters, and website chronicled her struggles in the ”valley of the shadow” as she faced impending death. Close family friend and fellow missionary Fr. Luke Veronis briefly tells the story of Lynette”s life, then lets her writing speak for itself, showing how Lynette”s radical faith and love for Christ transformed the tragedy of a young mother”s untimely death Into a powerful witness to the love and saving power of her Lord.

Four of Seattle’s top yoga teachers will lead participants of all levels on an inspiring journey for the soul.
Yoga promotes mind, body and spiritual relaxation and well-being, and has been shown to manage the side effects of medical treatment and improve quality of life for patients with cancer, according to researchers at City of Hope.
In its two-year history, Yoga for Hope has raised ,000 for vital research and treatment.
Jenniferlyn Chiemingo has been practicing yoga for more than 11 years. She trained at Kripalu for Integrative Yoga Therapy and specialized in guiding new moms through pre- and postnatal yoga as well as helping cancer patients through yoga, meditation and pranayama. In 2005 and 2007, she continued her training with Shiva Rea for Vinyasa yoga. As an experienced registered yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance, she leads the community as a Lululemon alumni ambassador and director of yoga for hauteyoga Queen Anne.
Dora Gyarmati has a natural ability to inspire the love of physical being in all her students, emphasizing strength with a lighthearted attitude. Gyarmati began studying yoga 11 years ago as a way to build her strength and stability after a knee injury. She trained with Baron Baptiste and has been mentoring with Lisa Black for the past three years. In 2010, Gyarmati was recognized as a Lululemon ambassador for the Seattle stores. She owns her own yoga studio, leads workshops throughout the Seattle area and hosts international yoga retreats.
Jennifer Isaacson, who began studying yoga in 1996, received her teaching certificate from Kim King-Zamoff in 2002. She then studied at the Samadhi Yoga Center under Kathleen Hunt's guidance, where she received a certificate and continues to be a part of their teacher training faculty. Since 2004, she trains with Shiva Rea annually. She currently hosts retreats and teaches in Mexico.
Cosetta Romani is dedicated to the element of yoga that seizes the present. She embraces life as it comes, weaving wisdom with tradition in her practice. She encourages her students to explore intuitive guidance, precision breath work, creative flows, chanting, and moving and sitting meditation. She also teaches how to shift inward in order to reach outward.
