A research team at Lund University in Sweden has discovered a certain type of cells – foam cells – in patients with the aggressive brain tumour glioblastoma. It has been shown how these cells accelerate the cancer’s growth and that this can be successfully inhibited using a drug developed for arteriosclerosis. Glioblastoma affects around 500 Swedes every year and is the most common and most aggres

Feta råttor utvecklar en förhöjd smak för sött och sötsuget gör att de hamnar i en ond cirkel där fetman förvärras. En fetmaoperation gör inte bara att de snabbt går ned i vikt. Även deras sötsug minskar. Mycket tyder på att detta också gäller överviktiga människor. Fetmaoperationer är en drastisk men effektiv behandling för kraftig och varaktig viktminskning.

For many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, the health care system was strained already before the coronavirus crisis. Lack of intensive care units and respirators and the difficult economic situation in most African countries limit the resources to combat the pandemic.

In order to drive a car, you need a good balance between accelerator and brake. The same applies to a part of the brain – the striatum - that controls our movements. Research at Lund University in Sweden has led to new findings on the interaction between the “accelerator” and the “brake” in the striatum. These findings may guide the development of treatments for movement disorders such as those oc

Blodproppar kan uppstå både i artärer och vener. Men orsakerna bakom skiljer sig åt, liksom konsekvenserna och möjligheterna att förebygga blodpropp. I Sverige har nästan hälften av alla fall av venös blodpropp en genetisk förklaring. Nu har ett forskarteam från Lunds universitet upptäckt tre genvarianter som ökar risken för benpropp med upp till 180 procent. Det är skillnad mellan arteriella och
