Football great Pele's 'secret daughter' has been named in his will - despite claims the star denied she was his all her life
Football great Pele's 'secret daughter' has been named in his will - despite claims the star denied she was his all her life.
Sandra Regina, who was born in 1964, sadly died 17 years ago, heartbroken that her father refused to acknowledge her. But, as revealed by the Mirror, she has been named among seven of his children included in his will. Sandra's large share of his estate will pass to her two sons, who met their grandfather for the first time as he lay dying in hospital. The Brazilian football star's final wish was to meet Octavio Felinto Neto and Gabriel Arantes do Nascimento.Gabriel said: “I thank God for providing this moment, it was what my mother dreamed of most.“We were very excited, it was an opportunity we had been waiting for.
"Every family has fights and rows, ours is no different, but there are moments when union and love are more important than anything else. We are extremely happy.” Top news stories today Don't miss the latest news from around Scotland and beyond - Sign up to our daily newsletter here .

Tacedinaline (CI-994), a class I HDAC inhibitor, targets intrinsic tumor growth and leptomeningeal dissemination in MYC-driven medulloblastoma while making them susceptible to anti-CD47-induced macrophage phagocytosis via NF-kB-TGM2 driven tumor inflammationBackground While major advances have been made in improving the quality of life and survival of children with most forms of medulloblastoma (MB), those with MYC-driven tumors (Grp3-MB) still suffer significant morbidity and mortality. There is an urgent need to explore multimodal therapeutic regimens which are effective and safe for children. Large-scale studies have revealed abnormal cancer epigenomes caused by mutations and structural alterations of chromatin modifiers, aberrant DNA methylation, and histone modification signatures. Therefore, targeting epigenetic modifiers for cancer treatment has gained increasing interest, and inhibitors for various epigenetic modulators have been intensively studied in clinical trials. Here, we report a cross-entity, epigenetic drug screen to evaluate therapeutic vulnerabilities in MYC amplified MB, which sensitizes them to macrophage-mediated phagocytosis by targeting the CD47-signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα) innate checkpoint pathway. Methods We performed a primary screen including 78 epigenetic inhibitors and a secondary screen including 20 histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) to compare response profiles in atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT, n=11), MB (n=14), and glioblastoma (n=14). This unbiased approach revealed the preferential activity of HDACi in MYC-driven MB. Importantly, the class I selective HDACi, CI-994, showed significant cell viability reduction mediated by induction of apoptosis in MYC-driven MB, with little-to-no activity in non-MYC-driven MB, AT/RT, and glioblastoma in vitro. We tested the combinatorial effect of targeting class I HDACs and the CD47-SIRPa phagocytosis checkpoint pathway using in vitro phagocytosis assays and in vivo orthotopic xenograft models. Results CI-994 displayed antitumoral effects at the primary site and the metastatic compartment in two orthotopic mouse models of MYC-driven MB. Furthermore, RNA sequencing revealed nuclear factor-kB (NF-κB) pathway induction as a response
