Important regulation of cell invaginations discovered

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Lack of microinvaginations in the cell membrane, caveolae, can cause serious diseases such as lipodystrophy and muscular dystrophy. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now discovered a “main switch” that regulates the formation of these invaginations. Many cells in the body are equipped with small microinvag

Unexpected discovery reveals mechanism behind brain tumour development

When researchers at Lund University investigated how the molecule UM171 works, a molecule used to make blood stem cells multiply, they made an unexpected connection. The results provide new insights into how one of the most common malignant brain tumours in children could be treated in the future. UM171 is a synthetic molecule developed by researchers at Université de Montréal. In stem cell resear
