The gene that controls the prognosis in neuroblastoma

Neuroblastoma is a tumor disease that primarily affects young children. The survival rate is the lowest of all childhood cancers. Now, a research team at Lund University has discovered that a specific gene is associated with a poorer prognosis. The study is published in the journal Science Advances. Every year, about twenty children in Sweden are diagnosed with neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma is a ca

Cell-specific Biomarkers in the Blood Reflect What Happens in the Brain During Stroke

By analysing small microvesicles that cells release to communicate with their surroundings in the blood, researchers at Lund University map what happens in the brains of stroke patients. The study published in the scientific journal Stroke expands our understanding of stroke and opens doors to new treatment strategies.
