This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Patients with diabetes or Parkinson’s disease can be cured with stem cells at a clinic in China. Multiple sclerosis, stroke and cerebral palsy are treated at a stem cell clinic in Mexico, and in Thailand, the deadly disease ALS can be cured with stem cells... at least according to advertising from these and other clin

The fight against COVID-19 continues. In Lund, researchers are working to identify a compound that could be used to prevent viral infection, and thus save lives. “This model that has been developed with our collaborators will fill an important gap for current and future drug screening efforts for the upper or lower airways using human airway cells”, says Sinem Tas, associate researcher. The most r

Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the abnormal accumulation and spread of the tau protein in the brain. An international study can now show how tau spreads according to four distinct patterns that lead to different symptoms with different prognoses of the affected individuals. The study was published in Nature Medicine. “In contrast to how we have so far interpreted the spread of tau in the

Do epigenetic changes cause type 2 diabetes, or do the changes occur only after a person has become ill? A new study by researchers at Lund University provides increased support for the idea that epigenetic changes can cause type 2 diabetes. The researchers behind the new findings published in Nature Communications now aim to develop methods for disease prevention. We inherit our genes from our pa

Marie Stissing Jensen, PhD student at Lund University and SASNET grantee, travels Sri Lanka and Nepal to better understand the ecosystem of Multi-Stakeholder Partnerships. They have been deemed vital for realizing the 2030 Agenda goals, due to their perceived ability to overcome ‘silo-thinking’ between sectors – but how and to what extent do they do this, and what exactly are their activities in t

You rush into the supermarket; your mother-in-law is coming for dinner. But which products end up in your shopping basket and why? Researchers have previously tracked eye movements to understand which products attract you in a shop. In order to get closer to the truth, they now want to use new computational models in which the brain’s cognitive processes also play a major role. As you stand in the

That eating plenty of vegetables, wholegrains and legumes is beneficial for health is well known. More surprising, however, is that people who eat in a environmentally-friendly way also display nutritional values that are better than researchers had expected. This is shown in a new study by Anna Stubbendorff at the Agenda 2030 Graduate School. The EAT–Lancet diet is a global dietary guideline deve

Akut lymfatisk leukemi hos spädbarn är en ovanlig men aggressiv leukemiform. Återfallsrisken är hög och endast runt 30 procent av barnen överlever. Nu har forskare vid Lunds universitet upptäckt att de genetiska förändringarna bakom ett återfall är olika, beroende på om återfallet sker innan eller efter nio månader. Akut lymfatisk leukemi (ALL) hos spädbarn är en ovanlig leukemiform som drabbar ci

Sveriges gränsvärde för sexvärt krom har varit oförändrat sedan 1996 och är högre än i flera andra länder. En forskningsstudie från Lunds universitet visar att även arbetare som exponeras för krom under det svenska gränsvärdet, uppvisar betydande cellförändringar långt innan cancer utvecklas. Nu finns det ett förslag från Arbetsmiljöverkets att sänka gränsvärdet. I Sverige exponeras ungefär 18 000

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. En grupp forskare vid Lunds universitet har i över 20 år envist arbetat med att försöka ta fram ett läkemedel mot preeklampsi - havandeskapsförgiftning - ett allvarligt sjukdomstillstånd som årligen drabbar cirka 9 miljoner gravida kvinnor i världen och är den främsta dödsorsaken hos både mödrar och foster.

Blodkärl som annars skulle slängas har i stället använts till forskning av hur celler i kärlväggen lagrar in fett. Ett nära samarbete mellan kärlfysiologer och thoraxkirurger i Lund gör att forskarna på ett mer naturtroget sätt kan se hur fettupptaget i cellerna kan minskas med farmakologisk behandling. Åderförfettning – ateroskleros – är det enskilda medicinska tillstånd som ligger bakom flest dö
