Centre for Innovation Research – CIRCLE – is an interdisciplinary centre which connects innovation researchers from different faculties at Lund University as well as other Swedish and international universities. The meaning of the term innovation has transformed and is now tightly linked to sustainable development goals including climate change, social sustainability and food security. CIRCLE’s a
Our ultimate research vision is to discover, develop and implement novel neuroprotective and neurorestorative therapies for neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, Huntingtons disease and stroke. My group works with translational research that is tightly linked to clinical research questions. Our experimental focus is to understand neurovascular disease mechanisms. We examine the dysfu
Cholesterol-rich clusters of SNARE (soluble NSF attachment protein receptor) proteins have been implicated as being important for exocytosis. Here we demonstrate the significance of cholesterol for normal biphasic insulin secretion in mouse beta cells by removal of cholesterol from the plasma membrane using methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MBCD). Maximal inhibition of insulin secretion in static incubati

Forskningsämnet förlags- och bokmarknadskunskap studerar förlag, bokmarknad, försäljningssystem, digitalisering av böcker, läsning, litteraturens plats i samhället samt sociala, ekonomiska och praktiska aspekter av böcker och litteratur. Ämnets frågor, metoder och teorier härstammar från en rad olika discipliner, exempelvis litteraturvetenskap, bokhistoria och kulturstudier, digital humaniora, medPublishing Studies as a research field include publishers, book markets, sales systems, book digitization, reading, the role of literature in society, and the social, economic, and practical aspects of books and literature. Its topics, methods and theories originate from various disciplines, including comparative literature, book history, cultural studies, digital humanities, media and communicati
Anders Bjartell är forskargruppsledare för den här forskargruppenTranslational research on prostate cancer: Identification of molecular targets for development of new therapies in chemo- and hormone resistant prostate cancer. This includes: 1) In vitro studies and animal models. 2) Development and validation of biomarkers in tissue, blood and urine including circulating tumor cells. 3) Biobanking. 4) Clinical studies on imaging biomarkers for prognosis, predict
Näthinnan (Retina) är en del av det centrala nervsystemet och består till största delen av specialiserade nervceller. Vid degenerativ näthinnesjukdom, t.ex retinitis pigmentosa, åldersrelaterad makuladegeneration, näthinneavlossning och glaukom förstörs nervceller vilket resulterar i idag icke behandlingsbar synnedsättning. Traditionellt undersöks ofta sjukdom och behandling inom CNS experimentellTraditionally, experimental neuronal research is conducted on single cells after disruption of the tissue. A more pertinent approach to the complex CNS is to consider cells, extracellular matrix, and cell junctions as a tissue continuum through which mechanical and biochemical information is bidirectionally communicated. Our research is focused on retinal cell interactions in health and disease, a
Avdelningen består av etnologi (se ämnesbeskrivning nedan)The research in ethnology has two primary orientations, both of which work with historical as well as contemporary perspectives. The first orientation focuses on practices of everyday life – that is to say the study of what people do in their daily lives and how such activities constitute the grounds for different cultural patters of thought and societal values. Research in this area of study prob
Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) is an extremely aggressive form of cancer and current treatment protocols are insufficient. SCLC have neuroendocrine characteristics and show phenotypical similarities to the childhood tumor neuroblastoma. As multidrug-resistant neuroblastoma cells are highly sensitive to arsenic trioxide (As2O3) in vitro and in vivo, we here studied the cytotoxic effects of As2O3
Protein E (PE) of nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is involved in adhesion and activation of epithelial cells. A total of 186 clinical NTHi isolates, encapsulated H. influenzae, and culture collection strains were analyzed. PE was highly conserved in both NTHi and encapsulated H. influenzae (96.9%-100% identity without the signal peptide). PE also existed in other members of the genus Pas
