Special Reports SERVICES Video E-mail Newsletters CNNtoGO SEARCH Web CNN.com Californians seek cause for high breast cancer rates By Rusty Dornin CNN Clarke says women might be unknowingly increasing their chance of getting cancer by "not having children at all, delaying child bearing." Story Tools SAUSILOTO, California (CNN) Marin County, California, seems like paradise. Just across the Golden Gate bridge, it's home to rich, beautiful, healthy people. But a television ad paints a different picture. "People are dying in Marin County and no one seems to care," says the commerial. These tough-to-ignore ads are part of the Marin County Cancer Project's Search for the Cause campaign. What they're searching for is the reason the rate of breast cancer here is 45 percent higher than the national average. No one seems to know why. Annie Fox was 29 when she got breast cancer. She died three months ago at age 35. Her fiancee, Chris Stewart, said it's tough not to be angry. "I'm certainly lonely and I miss her," he said. Sheila Levine joined the cause to find a solution years ago. Then, last year, she got breast cancer herself.

The Food and Drug Administration panel is also considering approval for Herceptin, a ground-breaking approach to treating advanced breast cancer. Tamoxifen, an effective and widely-used breast cancer drug, would be used as a preventative measure for women who are at high risk, if it is approved by the FDA. The FDA is likely to follow its advisors' recommendations and make a final decision on the drug by November. A study by the National Cancer Institute released in April found tamoxifen could help prevent the disease in some women.

(CNN) Every year, breast cancer strikes close to 200,000 women in America. And in 2000, Latina pop star, Soraya, was one of them. But even before her diagnosis, the singer was no stranger to breast cancer. Her mother, grandmother, and aunt all battled the disease. "It was something that was a constant in our family," she says. Following her mother's death from complications related to breast cancer, Soraya became actively involved in breast cancer awareness organizations in an effort to spread the word about early detection, and the singer practiced what she preached. In June 2000, while performing a self-breast exam, she made an alarming discovery.

Breast Cancer Return to the tutorial menu. The Breast The female breasts are modified sweat glands composed of lobes and lobules interspersed with adipose tissue and connective tissue. Ducts drain from each lobule. These converge to form a lactiferous duct that drains from each lobe. The lactiferous ducts merge just beneath the nipple to form a lactiferous sinus. The functional secretory unit in lactation is the terminal duct lobular unit. Here, each duct has a lining epithelium surrounded by a thin myoepithelial cell layer responsive to oxytocin, the hormone that stimulates lactation. Neoplasms may arise in either the ductular epithelium, lobules, or the stroma. However, the majority of cancers arise in the ducts. Normal breast, high power microscopic. Normal breast, duct with myoepithelial cells identified by immunoperoxidase staining for actin, high power microscopic. Incidence of Breast Cancer Breast cancer is very rare before age 20 and is rarely diagnosed in women younger than age 25. Past that age, the incidence rises steadily to reach a peak around the age of menopause. The rate of increase is lessened after menopause, but older women are still at increasing risk over time. About 1 in 8 women in the United States and Canada will develop breast cancer. This incidence is similar for many European countries. However, breast cancer is much less common in Asia.

InnerSelf Magazine (enter email here) Sample Issue Beware of the Dark Side of Tamoxifen (Nolvadex) by Sherrill Sellman There has been much ado in the press recently about the wonders of the drug tamoxifen (nolvadex). It has been heralded as a major breakthrough in the treatment and possible prevention of breast cancer. Tamoxifen is now the number one recommended drug treatment for women recovering from breast cancer. With half a billion dollars (US) in annual revenues , it is currently used by more women with breast cancer than any other prescription drug. But as is the case with all pharmaceutical drugs, there are serious dangers which seem to be conveniently glossed over. Far from the savior of women's lives, it has potential lethal side-effects.
