Who Else Wants to Live in Bliss?

?

If You Want To Create Joy, Energy, Happiness And Bliss Beyond Belief ? Even If Nothing's Worked For You In The Past. . .

?

Give Me One Weekend And I?ll Show You the Easy Steps That Can Transform Your Life Into: Happiness 24/7

?

I?ll Walk You Through the Easy-To-Apply New Habits That Will Rewire Your Brain for Happiness and Success.

?

Just imagine what it will be like to wake up every morning and know you hold the "Master Key" to Bliss. You will feel a warm glow in your belly because you've finally found the keys to achieve limitless Bliss, Joy, Energy and Abundance.

?

And the best part is, once you complete the weekend, you will be firmly in control of your own happiness. And even after you finish the program, all it takes is 22 and a half minutes a day to maintain your Bliss and your ?Personal Heaven On Earth.?

?

You see, this is unlike any program you've ever heard of or bought. Why?

?

Because Being Happy Is As Easy As ?Falling In Love.?

?

Some of you may remember the Buddy Holly song: ?It?s So Easy to Fall in Love.? That?s exactly what I discovered about Joy and Happiness. ?It?s So Easy to Fall into Joy.?

?

My name is Matti Anttila. I?m a Certified Laughter Yoga Teacher. At one of our weekly Laughter Yoga classes, we did an exercise where we try to make a person laugh or smile while they did their level best NOT to smile.

?

One person asked what was the purpose of that exercise? She answered the question herself when she said: ?It was painful not to smile.?

?

And that is the discovery that I made:

?

Our Normal Way Of Being Is Painful. Not Being Happy Is Actually Painful!

?

We are taught to be serious, because: ?Life is serious, don?t you know. I have to earn a living and I?m stressed out. I have to bear down and work hard and there?s no a time to be frivolous.?

?

It?s painful to live this way! And when we are in pain, it?s hard to get things done.

?

The Latest Scientific Research Has Proven Beyond Doubt:

?

?We Can Be More Successful By Being Happy First!

?

The myth we have been programmed to believe is this: Work hard to achieve your goals and then you can be happy.

?

The problem with this model for happiness is: IT DOESN?T WORK!! This model is broken.

?

Scientific research proves:

?

Those Who Are Happy First, Find It Easier To Achieve Their Goals.

?

But, how do you get happy with all these problems?

?

?There?s not enough month at the end of my money. Not enough time to do all the things I have to do?never mind want to do. There is so ?much to do at work that I?ll never get it all done.

?

I?m stressed out and can?t see any light at the end of the tunnel. I seem to be on a treadmill: get up, go to work, come home, have dinner, watch some TV, go to bed and start all over again the next day.

?

Not only that, but the world is full of challenges; Climate change, wars, famine, crime and political strife.

?

How can I be happy in the face of all that??

?

It may seem an impossible task, but also it may seem irresponsible to be happy in a sad and miserable world.?

?

Actually, the opposite is true.

?

If We Are Happy And Joyful, Then We Radiate Joy And Spread Happiness.

?

That seems to me like a ?Higher Calling? than perpetuating sadness and misery.

?

The good news is we CAN feel joy, be happy and bathe in a sea of bliss. We CAN??????????? do that and we SHOULD.

?

The good news also is when we are happy, we are more able to help a sick world. We are better equipped with tools and techniques to get things done?including helping to ease some of the misery in this world.

?

Why?

You Will Be More Successful By Being In Bliss!!!

?

The great news is; it?s easier to be in bliss than to be stressed, sad, miserable or depressed.

?The Zen Of Joy: How to Rewire Your Brain For Happiness and Success. Simple and Easy Protocols for Performance, Productivity and Profits.? This is not about more information. ?Falling into Bliss? is not about reading more books, attending more self development and spiritual seminars and so on.

?

What stops you is the information you already have that isn?t working for you. The limiting beliefs about happiness and joy?the rules you have picked up and been conditioned to believe in over a lifetime. These rules about what you need to do and what you need to be in order to feel joy and bliss and happiness.

?

These rules are not the rules, they are your rules. Unnecessary rules that have nothing to do with being a good person. Rules that many people, happily for them, do not have.

?

Are You Ready To Break Your Own Rules? ?

?

If it means ?Falling into Bliss? and having the joy and happiness you have been craving all your life?

After this weekend, you could be basking in the warm glow of continuous Bliss, Joy, Happiness, Energy and Feelings of Abundance.

This very letter could have been the defining moment of your life?

Or? you could fall into the sea of people who let yet another life-changing opportunity pass them by?

The choice is yours.

Let me explain?

For decades, I have been researching anything and everything to get to the source of happiness and joy.

It started during my ?hippie? days, with ?herbs? and other supposedly mind-expanding substances. I stumbled on to Transcendental Meditation, Ashtanga Yoga, Vita-Flex, Kung Fu, Judo, Aikido, Tai Chi, Qigong, Herbology, Nutrition, exercise, energy work, Laughter Yoga and a host of other disciplines.

All of these seemingly diverse practices contributed to the path that led to feeling Bliss most of the time. You will notice I said ?most of the time.? This is a path that you and I are on and I get knocked off it occasionally, just like you. But, there is a?

Quick Way To Get Back To The Path, To Balance And To Bliss.

The tools and techniques I have developed for my own use allow me to quickly get back into Bliss whenever I fall off the path.

Now you can now plug into those very same tools and techniques (which I call protocols) without the decades of research that I went through.?

These tools allow virtually anyone to:

Instantly Overcome Even the Most Stubborn, Longstanding Negative Beliefs and
Emotions?And Transform Them Into Bliss!

And? what I've discovered? literally? continues to blow my mind, time and time again!

Now, this might not make me the most popular guy for saying this, but I honestly believe that you don't need to go through years and years of?

??????????-Writing affirmations
??????????-Thinking "positive"
??????????-Trying to "get passionate?
??????????-Endless goal setting
??????????-Assuming that "massive action" will solve everything
??????????-Working harder?

?just to attract success into your life! You see, most people work very hard and take lots of action, yet never attract the happiness they deserve. In fact, when it comes to happiness (and success), I've found that?

Almost Everyone Attempts to Get Happy The HARD Way!

But here's the good news: There is a much, much easier, more enjoyable, and infinitely more effective way.

In fact, after decades of research, I'm absolutely convinced you can?

Get into Bliss and Happiness Within Minutes?AND be More Successful in ALL Areas of Your Life.

I know. It sounds absolutely insane, doesn't it?

The reason it sounds crazy may well be because we are still operating under a myth that is broken. The myth that says become successful first and then you will have happiness.

But, as the famous author Deepak Chopra is quoted as saying: ???????????????????

?The secret to attraction is to love oneself.?

And listen. If this wasn?t working for me, I'd think it was just a bunch of ?New Age Woo Woo Stuff? myself. But the fact is, it works. Once I started practicing this simple set of ?energy protocols??

Incredible Success Started to Flood Into All Areas of My Life!

What stokes me up no end is that others can use these protocols to get the same results.

When you learn this system, you'll:

?

* Dramatically increase your happiness, your joy, your energy and your Bliss

?

* Get in touch with your intuition which can give you solutions to many of your ?problems?

?

* Develop an overwhelmingly positive outlook on life

?

* Find and experience a new way of being that literally changes your world for the better

?

* Find newfound clarity about exactly what you want

?

* Have a "do-it-yourself" healing system that you can practice anytime

?

* Be able to release stress and anxiety anywhere, anytime

?

* Find a new richness and fulfillment in every moment

?

?* Become a ?love magnet? as you radiate positive energy and love, you will find it comes back multiplied many times

?

Rewire Your Brain For Happiness, Joy and Bliss

?

Imagine if you could reprogram your brain and create an "Automated Happiness GPS" that continually moved you toward your joy, happiness and bliss.

?

The reason you are not in bliss at this very moment is because your subconscious mind is trying to protect you. You see, it?s those programs that were installed, those beliefs that form your ?truth.? ?

?

It's not your fault. It's just that part of you is programmed to keep you ?safe.?

?

Most of us use a "Default Operating System." It's the system our parents gave us. And it's the one their parents gave them.

?

Unfortunately, it's a lie. A faulty system. A glitch in the hard drive. One based on illusion, passed down from generation to generation. And really, it?s an ?Automatic Misery GPS!?

?

What no one told you is that any disruptions that we experience in life are simply disruptions in the energy field. And once you create your "Automatic Happiness GPS"?

?

You Become 100% "Optimized" For Entering Bliss Beyond Belief!

?

You literally "flip a switch" that tunes into a "joy frequency"? that just can't be stopped!

?

Ever Wished You Could Just ?Turn Off The World??

?

Well, now you can! With these protocols, you are just moments away from bliss at any time, anywhere.

?

To say you're getting some quality "bang for the buck" doesn't even begin to describe what I'm offering here.

?

The real value is the astonishing feeling of joy and happiness you'll achieve once you use the system.

?

Just imagine, most people spend their entire lives in the ?pursuit of happiness.? Chasing after money, status, fame, love, houses and cars and NEVER achieve this state of bliss, joy and happiness.

?

Listen, there are both rich people and poor people who are unhappy. AND there are rich people and poor people who are happy.

?

The great secret is:

?

The Happier You Are, The More Joy And Bliss You Feel, The Easier It Is Have The Physical Riches Of The World As Well.

?

We really have put the cart before the horse.

?

This is an entirely new way of living, to?

?

A truly joyful existence!

?

As you can see, the course itself is priceless. If you had to put a lifetime value on it, it would easily be worth tens, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars.

?

What is your cost? First, you will need to invest a weekend. We are talking about changing the habits of a lifetime. You can?t do that in one hour. What you can do in one weekend is familiarize yourself with the simple tools and techniques to insert new and powerful habits in place of habits that may not be serving you anymore.

?

Your second investment is $397. You will pay more for a flat screen TV. The purchase of a TV will give you a thrill that many think of as happiness. But how long does it last until it becomes ?just part of the furniture??

?

In fact, our consumer society has us chasing all kinds of things to buy that are supposed to make us happy. How much is the ?latte habit? costing you? I don?t buy them so I am guessing they run $4.00. Multiply by 5 days a week and 52 weeks a year and you are spending $1040 a year on something that promises happiness. We know that there is zero nutritional value in a latte, yet we justify it with something like this: ?It?s my little treat. I work hard, with my nose to the grindstone and it helps me get through the day.?

?

Instead, why not create a life that is blissful, joyous and happy. That way, we can throw out our crutches, one by one.

?

Tell me: How much money can we save each and every year if we did not need to buy ?stuff? to make ourselves feel good?

?

?Shop till you drop? seems to be the mantra to chase after that good feeling.

?

How about just turning on the ?Joy Key? whenever you want and saving hundreds on each shopping trip? Doesn?t that sound like a better strategy?

?

Look, there is nothing wrong with having ?stuff.? In fact, you deserve to have pleasant surroundings. AND, this is one of the great secrets of the Universe:

?

It?s Easier To Be Successful And Get The ?Stuff? You Want When You?re Happy First!

?

My personal confession about The Zen of Joy:

?

It Isn't Just About Feeling Good.

?

Of course, if you use The Zen of Joy and follow the instructions, you can?t help but feel great.

?

But ultimately, The Zen of Joy is about?

?

Clearing Your Blocks To Fully-Empowered Conscious Living

?

Empowering You To Heal Yourself AND Be A Positive Influence To Those Around You

?

Spreading the "Automatic Happiness GPS" around the world?and creating a better future for everyone

?

It's About Releasing Virtually Every Block You Have Toward Prosperous, Conscious Living? And? Changing The World In The Process.

?

It's about who you are? how you live? what you say? and what actions you take. That's the real power of this system: it translates into all areas of your life.

?

?At this point, you've got to be wondering only one thing?

?

Will The Zen of Joy work for me?

?

????????? ? -Will I feel bliss?

?

??????????? -Will I be able to relieve stress and anxiety wherever I am?

?

??????????? -Will I be able to get into a ?positive state? whatever I am doing?

?

??????????? -Will I increase my energy to deal with the many challenges I face?

?

??????????? -Will I reprogram negative subconscious beliefs?

?

??????????? -Will I actually and really ?Lift Money Worries?forever???

?

??????????? -Will I feel more positive about life?

?

??????????? -Will I look forward to facing my problems head on?

?

??????????? -Will I feel a close connection to others and yes, even feel more love?

?

The answer is a resounding YES!

?

The only question left is?

?

Are you ready to finally change your state to one of Bliss? Or will you, like most people, allow your fears and doubts to sabotage your success?

?

The funny thing is, if you do still have fears, you'll learn how to release them on the course.

?

It would be a shame, would it not, to not invest in the very system that releases your fears? all because those blocks aren't allowing you to take action right now?

?

The choice is yours to make?right now.

?

Book your space at the workshop now.

?

Just one of the 24 Protocols in The Zen of Joy is laughter.

?

There are, of course, many ways to plug into this.

?

Some do it through meditation.

?

Some run for miles to get the ?runner?s high.?

?

Laughter is a direct route, a shortcut.

?

Certified Laughter Yoga Leader training was the ?key? that opened the lock.

?

Laughter, giggling and smiling are second nature now.

?

Instead of reacting to events by tightening my stomach muscles, I am now more likely to giggle, smile and sometimes laugh at those same events.

?

There is a song title: ?When you?re smiling, the whole world smiles with you.?

?

Well?IT?S TRUE!!!! It happens every day to me.

?

Imagine having such a strong smile that many people on the street smile back at you.

?

You can have that too.

?

That is, if you choose.

?

Not everyone is ready to let go of entrenched habits. Habits that may cause something less than joy.

?

Does it really work?

?

How about this?

?

Prisoners have to have one of the worst situations. Locked away, told what to do and when to do it every day.

?

Look what Laughter Yoga is doing for some prisoners?in a Mexican jail:

?

?Laughter Yoga Project in Prisons in Mexico aims to Unleash Happiness

?

Luis Gomez has a heart for doing Laughter Yoga in the penitentiary system in Mexico City. He has a very large goal of reaching out to every prisoner and to help empower them to tap into their inner happiness. The aim is in alignment with Laughter Yoga International to create World Peace starting with peace within ourselves.

?

Ideally, by practicing laughter yoga, prisoners will be reminded to make better choices for themselves?

?

In the Instituto Mexicano de Yoga de la Risa (Mexican Laughter Yoga Institute) we are convinced of the healing powers of this technique that gives the opportunity of empowering other human beings to remember that happiness exists within every single one of us, no matter the conditions in which we are, and from then on, we can establish harmonious relationships with the rest of the people?

?

In general the inmates are very grateful for all what they?ve got from the meetings. They said that they feel a refresher every time they do it. They feel free. They think that the exercise exercises help them to realize that they can cultivate their internal peace. Also, they are thankful for the opportunity to keep on with the sessions since they truly believe in this project???? (From LaughterYoga.org)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If Laughter Yoga can work for prisoners in a Mexican jail to access their inner happiness, it just may work for you.

?

Caveat: No one can force you to laugh.

?

You do have to bring your willingness to the table.

?

But, I guarantee you this:

?

?If you bring willingness and are willing to work and play through the initial discomfort/unease/embarrassment/what-have-you, you too can have a breakthrough and become:

?

?The New You.?

?

You can be a Certified Laughter Yoga Leader ready to:

?

* Help others laugh more and relieve their stress, but also to

?

* Be a more joyful person with a more positive outlook on life.

?

Laughter Helps in Cancer Prevention

?

Laughter Yoga works with the breath to open up to fuller and healthier breathing.

?

Dr. Otto Warburg, the President of the Institute of Cell Physiology and two times a Nobel Prize winner, says this:

?

?Deep breathing techniques increase oxygen to the cells and are the most important factors in living a disease-free and energetic life. When the cells get enough oxygen, cancer will not and cannot occur.?

?

In fact, Laughter Yoga was inspired by a response to disease by an enlightened patient.

?

Founder Dr. Madan Kataria read about Norman Cousins who laughed himself back to health.

?

Cousins was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis, a painful form of arthritis.

?

Many die from this disease. The pain can be so great that sleep can become impossible.

?

Cousins decided to go out laughing!

?

So, he brought in Marx Brothers movies into his hospital room and started laughing.

?

Norman Cousins laughed himself back to health

?

From Wikipedia:

?

?Told that he had little chance of surviving, Cousins developed a recovery program incorporating megadoses of Vitamin C, along with a positive attitude, love, faith, hope, and laughter induced by Marx Brothers films.

?

"I made the joyous discovery that ten minutes of genuine belly laughter had an anesthetic effect and would give me at least two hours of pain-free sleep," he reported. "When the pain-killing effect of the laughter wore off, we would switch on the motion picture projector again and not infrequently, it would lead to another pain-free interval."

?

So, Laughter Yoga reduces pain, and?

?

Laughter is the # 1 stress buster.

?

Stress is said to be the number One killer.

?

Laughter is the number one stress buster!

?

You too, can have the healing effects of laughter?.on a daily basis. Here?s how:

Police: 2 children stabbed to death, nanny arrested

By Shimon Prokupecz and Gus Rosendale, NBCNewYork.com

An Upper West Side nanny stabbed a 2-year-old boy and 6-year-old girl to death inside their apartment Thursday afternoon before cutting her own throat, police said.

Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said the mother of the children returned to her West 75th Street home after a swimming lesson with a third child, a 3-year-old girl.

The apartment was dark when the mother and daughter entered, and the mother went to look for her two other children, said Kelly.

"She goes downstairs to the lobby, assuming the nanny may have gone out with the children," Kelly told reporters in a briefing Thursday night. "She asks the doorman if in fact they have gone out, and he says 'No.' She goes back up, the apartment is dark, and she goes into the bathroom."

View complete coverage from NBCNewYork.com

That's where she discovered her two children stabbed in the bathtub, Kelly said.

The nanny was on the floor of the bathroom with self-inflicted stab wounds to her throat. A kitchen knife was nearby.

Neighbors said they heard the mother's screams from her apartment as she called 911. After police arrived, a neighbor said the mother remained in the building's lobby, screaming hysterically and clutching her surviving child.

The 50-year-old nanny is in custody. She's hospitalized in critical condition.

Traffic around Columbus Avenue and 75th Street was heavily backed up as police and EMS responded to the initial call at about 5:30 p.m.

Wambach, Morgan FIFA world player candidates

ZURICH (AP) ? Olympic gold-medal winners Abby Wambach, Alex Morgan, Carli Lloyd and Megan Rapinoe of the United States were among 10 candidates selected for the FIFA Women's World Player of the Year.

Wambach scored five goals at the London Games, and Lloyd scored twice as the U.S. beat Japan 2-1 in the final before a crowd of 80,203 at Wembley Stadium. Morgan and Rapinoe each scored three times in London.

No American has won since Mia Hamm in 2001 and '02, the first years FIFA presented the women's award.

Christine Sinclair of Canada, who scored six goals at the London Olympics, and five-time winner Marta of Brazil also were nominated by FIFA on Thursday. Japan had three candidates including Homare Sawa, winner of the 2011 FIFA award.

Pia Sundhage, who guided the U.S. Olympic team, and Norio Sasaki of Japan were among 10 candidates for the coach's award.

Three finalists will be announced Nov. 29 in Sao Paulo after voting by national team coaches, captains and journalists.

Winners will be revealed at FIFA's annual gala on Jan. 7 in Zurich.

MSI GT70 First Gaming Laptop To Ship With Killer DoubleShot

published: 2012-10-25 12:43:09

We're getting into nerd-drooling territory with this news. Qualcomm Atheros and MSI Computer Corp have announced that they have partnered together to offer mobile laptop gamers a high-end gaming experience with top of the line networking capabilities thanks to the Killer DoubleShot.

The DoubleShot is a combination of previously announced Killer Technology devices, namely the Wireless-N 1202 high performance 2x2 MIMO Wi-Fi module with Bluetooth support and the Killer E2200 high performance Ethernet controller. This combination will be integrated into the MSI GT70 gaming laptop, enabling gamers to experience high-speed network gaming to match their high-speed framerates. It also means that when you join an online game in a competitive FPS or MOBA title, when the lag hits the fan you can throw your hands up and say "Well at least I know it isn't me."

Sam Chern, global marketing director of MSI Computer commented in the press release, saying...

?Having a high performance laptop with a fast and reliable Internet connection is a critical necessity for online gamers,? ... ?Killer DoubleShot is an ideal addition to our portfolio as it provides a superior Internet connection with intelligent application prioritization, enabling gamers with the ultimate online gaming performance without compromise.?

The bundle also comes equipped with Killer's network management software and Visual Bandwidth Control so you can manually gauge and manage both incoming and outgoing traffic.

And just so you know, the MSI GT70 is no slouch; it has a 17.3 inch screen space, 12GB of DDR3 RAM and a smoking hot Intel Core i7 3610QM Processor. I haven't used this particular laptop brand so even though the specs look good and it comes with the Killer DoubleShot networking solution, you'll still need to do some reading around to see how well MSI performs over the long haul.

You can look for the Killer DoubleShot in new MSI GT70 gaming laptops or learn more by paying a visit to the Official Website.

Kane County Chronicle | Pheasant Run Resort to host car auction

ST. CHARLES ? Whether buyers spend $10,000 to $15,000 on a car to enjoy on cruise nights or hundreds of thousands of dollars on a higher investment, Sam Murtaugh said the Mecum 2012 Fall Premier Auction in St. Charles this week will have it all.

?It?s basically a huge car show where everything is for sale,? he said.

Murtaugh is the marketing director for Wisconsin-based Mecum Auctions, a company that specializes in the sale of collector cars, offering more than 12,000 vehicles a year.

Today begins Mecum?s annual three-day auction at Pheasant Run Resort ? a location Murtaugh said gives out-of-town attendees an opportunity to take in one of Chicago?s ?premier suburbs.?

Gates open daily at 8 a.m. The auction begins at 1 p.m. today and 10 a.m. Friday and Saturday. It will be broadcast live on Velocity, a men?s cable network, on Friday and Saturday.

People can register to bid on site; there is a $100 bidder registration fee. Admission is $15 a day and free for children 12 and younger.

?We?re a real family-oriented company,? Murtaugh said.

This year?s auction will feature about 1,000 vehicles, he said. Typically, about 70 to 75 percent of the cars sell.

A 1954 Chevrolet Corvette drag car known as ?The Pizza Man? is headlining the auction. Earl Britt, the owner and driver, raced it across the Midwest and at national events from 1962 to 1971, earning it the title of ?World?s Fastest Six Cylinder Corvette.?

Chicago area collector Mike Guarise will offer his collection of ?Red Cover Girls? ? classic GM red muscle cars from 1970 that appeared on magazine covers.

A catalog of the vehicles is available at www.mecum.com. There, people also can sign up to access the sales results, Murtaugh said.

?People like to follow along,? he said, adding some treat it as a guessing game while others use the information to determine what their car might be worth.

Mouse model exposes a new type of T cell to target melanoma

Thursday, October 25, 2012

Cancers arise in the body all the time. Most are nipped in the bud by the immune response, not least by its T cells, which detect telltale molecular markers?or antigens?on cancer cells and destroy them before they grow into tumors. Cancer cells, for their part, evolve constantly to evade such assassination. Those that succeed become full-blown malignancies. Yet, given the right sort of help, the immune system can destroy even these entrenched tumors.

In the October 22nd issue of the Journal of Experimental Medicine, researchers led by Jedd Wolchok, MD, PhD, of the Ludwig Center for Cancer Immunotherapy at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) in New York describe one way in which that might be achieved. The paper relates how the cancer drug cyclophosphamide (CTX) and OX86?an antibody that activates a molecule named OX40 on T cells?were combined with a cutting-edge therapy known as adoptive T cell transfer to eradicate advanced melanoma tumors in mice.

Wolchok and his colleagues had previously shown that CTX and OX86 treatment caused the regression of such tumors. Now they wanted to see if adding T cell transfer to the mix would further improve outcomes. T cell transfer is an investigative immunotherapy in which T cells that target tumors are isolated from patients, manipulated, expanded and then transfused back into those patients.

A variety of T cells are of relevance to this approach. One is the CD8+ T cell, which can directly kill diseased and cancerous cells. Another is the CD4+ T cell, whose general role is to orchestrate the immune assault. It comes in several varieties ? examples are the T helper 1 (Th1) and T helper 2 (Th2)?each of which elicits a distinct sort of immune response. And then there is the regulatory T cell, which keeps a lid on the last two responses.

The activation of OX40 on T cells has varying effects. "When OX40 is activated on regulatory T cells in the tumor, they get so stimulated that they actually die," explains Wolchok. Other CD4+ T cells, on the other hand, step up the immune attack following OX40 activation.

To harness that phenomenon, Wolchok's team transplanted melanoma tumors into mice and allowed them to grow until they got to be about as advanced as permitted. They then gave the mice CTX and OX86, waited a day and transfused them with T helper cells engineered to target a tumor antigen known as Trp1.

The results were as surprising as they were swift: tumors expressing the Trp1 antigen didn't just get smaller. They were eradicated. What's more, the combination therapy also destroyed tumors composed of a mix of cells that display the Trp1 antigen and those that do not. This is significant because most human tumors are built from such mixed populations of cells.

"These T cells are so exquisitely tuned," says Wolchok, "that they induce collateral damage to cells in the tumor that don't even express the targeted antigen."

Wolchok and his colleagues discovered that OX40 activation dramatically altered the transfused T helper cells. They remained CD4+ T cells, yet became capable of destroying cancer cells themselves. Further, they took on traits common to long-lived memory cells, which ensure that any future tumors expressing the targeted antigen are quickly destroyed. Finally, these entirely novel T cells also had qualities of both Th1 and Th2 subtypes of T helper cells. This might explain how they induced an anti-tumor response vigorous enough to kill tumor cells that did not even bear the antigen they were targeting.

"This is not just of academic interest," says Wolchok, pointing out that most T cell transfer studies have so far focused on CD8+ T cells. "If these killer-memory CD4+ T cells are the ones that are really important to tumor killing then they are the ones we should be trying to transfer."

Further, combining other immunotherapies with OX40-stimulation could by itself boost T cell activity against tumors to significant effect. "Ideally," says Wolchok, "if one could make the endogenous immune response sufficiently robust, you might not need to do the adoptive transfer." That idea could soon be put to the test. Ludwig and the Cancer Research Institute signed an agreement with MedImmune, the global biologics arm of AstraZeneca, that will enable the examination of the clinical effects of an OX40-activating antibody as well as two other antibodies that disrupt the suppression of immune responses by tumors.

The new findings on how OX40 activation affects T helper cells will doubtless inform those studies.
