For Anders Wittrup, clinical WCMM researcher and oncologist, the choice of this year's Nobel laureate in Physiology and Medicine, Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman, was quite expected. They recieved the prize for their discoveries concerning nucleoside base modifications that enabled the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19 such as the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.

PRP treatment (platelet-rich plasma) is a relatively new experimental treatment that is often marketed to be effective for patients with osteoarthritis. However, there is a lack of high-quality research claiming the effectiveness of the treatment. Researchers from Brazil have recently published results from a small clinical trial (including 61 patients) evaluating three different treatments. The p

A research group at Lund University has studied how a molecular sensor located in the blood vessel wall, controls how the vessel compensates for high blood pressure. As we age, the sensor deteriorates, which can worsen vascular damage caused by high blood pressure and consequently lead to secondary diseases affecting the heart, brain, or other organs. In mice, the researchers demonstrate that the

Underground fungi play a central role in the fragile ecosystems of atoll islands. The unique symbiotic relationship between these fungi and rainforest trees is vital for the restoration of nature and ultimately for the survival of coral reefs. New research shows how fungi help nutrients to move between the forest and the sea. Palmyra Atoll is a remote and uninhabited cluster of small islands halfw

Modern imaging techniques allows researchers to map the structure of the smallest components of cells, such as proteins. By understanding what proteins look like and how they interact with their surroundings, researchers can find keys to more effective drug therapies. In a study led from Lund University, researchers have mapped the structure of a channel in the cell membrane that regulates the tra
