Much research on diabetes focuses on understanding what happens when the insulin-producing cells are destroyed. Researchers at Lund University have instead chosen to investigate what protects the insulin-producing cells. Their research shows that a protein of the immune system protects the insulin-producing cells from inflammation and death. The study, published in PNAS, is an example of basic res

Researchers at Lund University are developing a new type of gene therapy that reprograms cancer cells within tumors into immune cells that can help the immune system fight cancer. Their approach, now published in the journal Science, could lead to more effective treatments for hard-to-treat cancers. Cancer is known for its ability to hide from the immune system, making it tough to fight. But what

Type 2 diabetes is a complex disease that can lead to serious health problems. It is important to find ways to predict the disease to take preventive measures. A large interdisciplinary study led by Lund University has identified a biomarker in the blood that predicts type 2 diabetes several years before diagnosis. Diabetes is on the rise and over time, diabetes can lead to complications such as c
