Förändrat genpanorama bakom typ 1-diabetes

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. De ärftliga orsakerna till typ 1 diabetes har förändrats. Starka riskgener har minskat i betydelse och gener, som hittills betraktats som skyddande, verkar inte längre vara det i lika stor utsträckning. Det är forskarlaget i den stora undersökningen Bättre Diagnostik av Diabetes, BDD, som upptäckte den nya bilden nä

Diabetesvaccin påverkar immunförsvaret som förväntat

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Analyser av immunsystemets reaktion på vaccinering med GAD65 ger en molekylär bakgrund till varför behandlingen har positiv effekt och förbättrar vaccinerade barns blodsockerkontroll. De förändringar som vaccinering med GAD65 orsakar i immunsystemet ännu efter 15 månader visar att behandlingen återställer balansen m

Blodproteiner kan förutsäga diabetes

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. En undersökning av proteiner i blodet kan med ungefär 80 procents säkerhet visa om en person kommer att insjukna i typ 2 diabetes inom fem år. Testet, som inte är tillgängligt i den vanliga sjukvården, har utvecklats av finska, svenska och amerikanske forskare. Forskarna i den stora finska Botniastudien, en familjeu

Gemensam ärftlig risk bakom flera diabetesformer

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Graviditetsdiabetes delar flera riskgener med andra diabetessjukdomar, visar en kartläggning som forskare på LUDC genomför. Det är ännu ett exempel på att gränserna mellan olika diabetestyper inte är så distinkta som man tidigare trott. Forskaren Nael Shaat på LUDC har i flera vetenskapliga studier visat att vissa r

Tolka och förstå betacellens molekylära språk

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Vid diabetes spelar den insulinproducerande betacellen huvudrollen. Bristen på insulin är central vid alla former av diabetes. Därför står betacellen i fokus för många diabetesforskare. En av dem är LUDC-forskaren Hindrik Mulder. – Vi kartlägger de molekylära orsakerna till att betacellen sviktar, säger han.Hos männ

Lovande försök med vaccin mot typ 1-diabetes

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Kan två enkla injektioner bromsa sjukdomsförloppet och rädda insulinceller hos barn som nyligen insjuknat i typ 1 diabetes? Preliminära resultat från en svensk undersökning tyder på det. 15 månader efter vaccination hade de barn som behandlats dubbelt så stor förmåga att själva producera insulin jämfört med obehandl

Soundwalk imagines the climate future

The year is 2072, and the worst storm in two hundred years is about to hit Scania, in the south of Sweden. In Skanör-Falsterbo, a family is celebrating Christmas when the storm alarm sounds. The waves draw closer to the house, and the family dash towards the nearby church. What happens next is the result of many decades of decisions: did we work together, or did the lines of conflict become even d

Researchers find ten billion-year old “ghost stars” from swallowed galaxy

Astronomers at Lund University in Sweden have found a group of stars in the Milky Way disk, that are most likely remnants from an unknown baby galaxy that was swallowed by the Milky Way over 10 billion years ago. Nothing like it has been discovered in the galaxy disk before. After the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago, space was a veritable Wild West. Stars formed inside huge gas clouds that collide

Fast fashion has a huge impact on the environment

On-trend clothes that you only wear a few times – in the beginning of the 2000s the fashion industry started speeding up production. Today, it accounts for around 10 per cent of global carbon dioxide emissions and criticism is being directed at the industry for not taking responsibility for its social and environmental impact. The big question is; can fashion become sustainable? Technological deve

Other sides to the story – how the immigrant´s children experience life

How does migration and globalisation shape the lives of individuals in various countries and how does it affect the children of immigrants in terms of integration, identity, and cultural expressions? Do they themselves use the word integration? These questions occupy sociologist Dalia Abdelhady who is about to conclude a study of three populations in the US, in France and in Germany, based on thei

A mosaic of creative spaces connects knowledge and innovation

A regional project led by Lund University called Make Space för Verkstad has mapped out around 70 creative spaces and labs around Skåne with the aim of highlighting a common infrastructure. The spaces range from artists´workshops to testbeds, labs and hubs within academia or with external partners who can drive the development of new innovations. – These spaces are vital if we are to have a divers

New research on dust mites and respiratory infections

When asthmatics’ respiratory tracts are exposed to dust mites, their immune response becomes less effective, which can lead to a weaker immune system. People who suffer from asthma associated with infection may therefore be more susceptible to secondary viral or bacterial infections. According to the researchers, the results suggest that asthmatics should avoid house dust mites and that patients w

Art and culture bring us existential awareness

Art and culture have the capacity to make us aware of our relationship to ourselves and others, our world and our time. Using existential sustainability as an umbrella term, we can investigate new angles and open the way for new collaborations, according to Anna Lyrevik, senior adviser to the Vice-Chancellor, who has broad experience of delivering cultural projects in various forms. “My mission is

Many reasons to take care of lake water

When you take a dip in a Swedish lake, it is not unusual to find you cannot see the lake bottom. Lake water coloured brown by organic material can be an inconvenience for swimming tourists, but mainly causes problems for the ecosystem and drinking water. Focusing on Lake Bolmen, researchers, public authorities and local organisations are now joining forces in a research project to find methods tha

Researchers reprogram human skin cells to aged neurons to study neurodegenerative disorders

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new method for studying age-related brain disorders. The researchers have focused on the neurodegenerative disorder Huntington’s disease and the results have now been published in the journal Brain. Basic medical research often faces the challenge of developing disease models that correspond to specific disease mechanisms or the disease to

Blood testing in children leads to better understanding of type 1 diabetes

Why do some people develop type 1 diabetes and others do not? Worldwide, researchers are now collaborating to find the answer to this complex question.Diabetes researchers at Lund University recently contributed data to a new study that shows that type 1 diabetes develops in three different ways in children. This improved understanding makes it possible for scientists to conduct new types of studi

Researchers develop the first AI-based method for dating archeological remains

By analyzing DNA with the help of artificial intelligence (AI), an international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has developed a method that can accurately date up to ten-thousand year-old human remains. Accurately dating ancient humans is key when mapping how people migrated during world history.The standard dating method since the 1950s has been radiocarbon dating. The method, whi
