Stanford Indian American Prof. Ansuman Satpathy Named a Pew-Steward Scholar for Cancer Research

The Pew Charitable Trusts and the Alexander and Margaret Stewart Trust recently announced its 2021 class of the Pew-Stewart Scholars Program for Cancer Research, among them Indian American professor Ansuman Satpathy.
Satpathy, of Stanford University, will investigate the genetic mechanisms of T-cell exhaustion, a phenomenon that arises with chronic immune stimulation during infections and cancers.
The Satpathy lab will investigate the genetic mechanisms of T-cell exhaustion, a phenomenon that arises with chronic immune stimulation during infections and cancers. Cancer immunotherapies work by enhancing the ability of immune cells called T-cells to recognize and destroy tumor cells.
However, this form of treatment is not effective in all patients or cancer types since the action of T-cells are not always sustained. To learn how T-cells become âexhausted,â his lab will employ a suite of genome-based technologies to map genetic changes in tumor-specific T-cells from over 100 patients across different cancer types and identify regulatory factors that control T-cell behavior during tumor growth, metastasis, and treatment, the bio notes.

Never too late: Cancer centers push patients to quit smoking

When cancer patients stop smoking, they heal faster, experience fewer side effects from treatment and lower their chances of tumors returning. Now, top cancer hospitals are helping patients quit as evidence mounts that it’s never too late.
The newest research, reported Monday, shows lung cancer patients who stopped smoking gained nearly two years of life compared to those who continued to smoke.
“It is a huge effect,” said Dr. Mahdi Sheikh, who led the study for the World Health Organization’s cancer research agency in Lyon, France. In lung cancer, he said, quitting smoking is “as necessary as the treatments.”

Lung cancer patients who quit smoking after diagnosis live about TWO YEARS longer

Lung cancer patients who quit smoking after diagnosis live about TWO YEARS longer than those who keep using cigarettes
Lung cancer patients that quit smoking upon diagnoses can live for up to two years longer than those that continue smoking
Research shows that those with diagnoses can still take action to improve their health
Quitting smoking may be hard for some, even after diagnoses, but contracting cancer could be a motivating factor
Doctors are developing better ways to help people addicted to nicotine quit

“It’s the biggest reason I’ve ever had in my life to quit,” said Preston Browning, an electrician in Ridgetop, Tennessee, who quit cigarettes last month while recovering from cancer surgery.
Browning, now 20 years old, had smoked a pack a day since he was 14. He credits the stop-smoking drug Chantix and support from tobacco treatment specialists at the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center. Nurse Lesa Abney listened to Browning’s reasons for smoking — he described smoking as “me time” and “a little reward” — and suggested strategies he could use: Eat breakfast instead of lighting up each morning. Reach for a toothpick after lunch. Treat yourself with dessert.
