Lundaforskare har utvecklat en ny musmodell som ger svar på vad som de facto sker i kroppen när typ 2 diabetes utvecklas och hur kroppen svarar på läkemedelsbehandling. Långtidsstudier av den medelålders musmodellen kan bättre än tidigare studier bekräfta hur läkemedel för typ 2 diabetes fungerar i människor. - De d

Borders don’t just divide nations — they define our bodies too. At the skin and in the gut, our barrier organs form the frontline of defense against infection. Here, diverse communities of friendly microbes, the microbiota, help maintain health and keep these borders strong, backed up by an immune system ready to deploy antibodies against any intruder. Protecting these barrier organs is central to
