The broadcaster has shared that 'this time next year, I won’t be here'.
TalkRadio hoststar told attendees of the British Curry Awards that he has just months to live as he gave an emotional speech at the ceremony on Monday.that had spread to his brain, spine, kidney and lungs, 20 years after having a kidney removed due to a tumour.Sharing an update on his health, James said at the event : “I know a lot of you won’t like me, but this time next year I won’t be here. I have terminal cancer.
He continued: “I am in my 70s now and I just want to say don’t waste your time on stupid things that don’t matter. 25 years later I’ve got it again. I’m 71 and I’ve had a great life.”Ian West - PA Images via Getty Images In August 2020, James told of how he was undergoing immunotherapy and hormone replacement treatment while awaiting a prognosis, with the hope he will be able to avoid chemotherapy.His experience with the disease led him to form the James Whale Kidney Fund in 2006, which merged with Kidney Cancer UK in 2015.
The broadcaster and talk show host has a regular slot on TalkRadio, having previously worked for LBC, TalkSport and ITV over his decades in the industry. In 2016, James also appeared on Celebrity Big Brother alongside the likes of Saira Khan, Christopher Biggins, Samantha Fox and Frankie Grande.

Vaginal microbiome-host interactions modeled in a human vagina-on-a-chip - MicrobiomeBackground A dominance of non-iners Lactobacillus species in the vaginal microbiome is optimal and strongly associated with gynecological and obstetric health, while the presence of diverse obligate or facultative anaerobic bacteria and a paucity in Lactobacillus species, similar to communities found in bacterial vaginosis (BV), is considered non-optimal and associated with adverse health outcomes. Various therapeutic strategies are being explored to modulate the composition of the vaginal microbiome; however, there is no human model that faithfully reproduces the vaginal epithelial microenvironment for preclinical validation of potential therapeutics or testing hypotheses about vaginal epithelium-microbiome interactions. Results Here, we describe an organ-on-a-chip (organ chip) microfluidic culture model of the human vaginal mucosa (vagina chip) that is lined by hormone-sensitive, primary vaginal epithelium interfaced with underlying stromal fibroblasts, which sustains a low physiological oxygen concentration in the epithelial lumen. We show that the Vagina Chip can be used to assess colonization by optimal L. crispatus consortia as well as non-optimal Gardnerella vaginalis-containing consortia, and to measure associated host innate immune responses. Co-culture and growth of the L. crispatus consortia on-chip was accompanied by maintenance of epithelial cell viability, accumulation of D- and L-lactic acid, maintenance of a physiologically relevant low pH, and down regulation of proinflammatory cytokines. In contrast, co-culture of G. vaginalis-containing consortia in the vagina chip resulted in epithelial cell injury, a rise in pH, and upregulation of proinflammatory cytokines. Conclusion This study demonstrates the potential of applying human organ chip technology to create a preclinical model of the human vaginal mucosa that can be used to better understand interactions between the vaginal microbiome and host tissues, as well as to evaluate the safety and efficac
