Runt 15 miljoner barn i världen föds för tidigt, prematurt, varje år. Bland de extremprematura barn som överlever finns stor risk för svåra komplikationer. Ett protein, tillväxtfaktorn IGF-1, har visat sig spela stor roll för den prematura hjärnans utveckling. I en ny avhandling vid Lunds universitet har viktiga transportmekanismer hittats för proteinets väg in i den omogna hjärnan. – Komplikation
