Nicotine May Directly Promote Development Of Breast Cancer
Scientists have discovered that when nicotine binds to nAchRs (nicotinic acetylcholine receptors), it may not only promote addiction, but breast cancer as well. We know that non-nicotine components of smoking are carcinogens, however, very little is known about how nicotine acts on cells to encourage cancer growth, the scientists explain.
While previous studies have linked smoking to increased breast cancer risk, they have not been accompanied by molecular biology studies to determine why.

Christopher Hitchens To Undergo Chemotherapy For Esophagus Cancer
British-born author and journalist, Christopher Hitchens, 61, has announced that he is to undergo chemotherapy for cancer of the esophagus, cancelling any further commitments in his current tour to promote his new book Hitch 22. He made the announcement via Vanity Fair’s web site, a publication for which he contributes.
Hitchens is well known to be a heavy cigarette smoker. Although he appeared to have quit in 2008, various sources report that he fell off the nicotine-wagon. Fox News writes that in 2003 he admitted that his alcohol intake was enough to kill or stun the average mule.
Hitchen said:
I have been advised by my physician that I must undergo a course of chemotherapy on my esophagus. This advice seems persuasive to me. I regret having had to cancel so many engagements at such short notice.
