En forskargrupp vid Lunds universitet har identifierat en ny mekanism som kopplar metabolismen av RNA, ribonukleinsyra, till utvecklingen av leukemi hos patienter med blodsjukdomen myelodysplastiskt syndrom, MDS. När viktiga komponenter i RNA-metabolismen störs, ökar antalet genetiska mutationer vilket leder till utveckling av cancer. Studien publiceras i Molecular Cell. Vår genetiska information

Tre forskargrupper vid Lunds universitets diabetescentrum har tilldelats nya forskningsanslag för projekt inom precisionsmedicin. Målsättningen är att utveckla individanpassade behandlingar för personer med typ 2-diabetes. Ett av de nystartade projekten handlar om att undersöka nya metoder som kan göra det möjligt att individanpassa behandlingen i samband med typ 2-diabetes. Projektet EPIPREDIA le

Har du märkt att forskares svar på frågor om en särskild extremväderhändelse beror på klimatförändringen eller inte brukar lyda något i stil med “Det passar in i mönstret, men vi kan inte säga med säkerhet att just denna händelse blivit värre på grund av klimatförändringarna”? Väderattribution är ett nytt fenomen som håller på att ändra på detta. Klimatforskare Wilhelm May på Lunds universitet hjä

Why are some people with obesity protected from type 2 diabetes? Who is at risk of developing gestational diabetes and type 2 diabetes? The Hjelt Diabetes Foundation awards two diabetes researchers at Lund University Diabetes Centre grants for projects that are seeking new answers to these questions.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Throughout our lives, our genes are affected by the way we live. Diet, exercise, age and diseases create imprints that are stored in something called methylome. Now, for the first time, researchers at the Lund University Diabetes Centre in Sweden have been able to map the entire methylome in the pancreatic islets whic

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Emissions of greenhouse gases have a warming effect on the climate, whereas small airborne particles in the atmosphere, aerosols, act as a cooling mechanism. That is the received wisdom in any case. However, new research from Lund University in Sweden can now show that the tiniest aerosols are increasing at the expens

Perhaps we course lecturers can use digital technology to become better at giving feedback and providing a clearer structure to our courses? Maybe digitisation gives us a golden opportunity to rethink content, relevance and what we really want students to think about as they study?

Targeted missiles that can enter cancer cells and deliver lethal cell toxins without harming surrounding healthy tissue. This has been a long-standing vision in cancer research, but it has proved difficult to accomplish. A research group at Lund University in Sweden has now taken some crucial steps in this direction. “For several years, we tried to elucidate which target proteins on the cancer cel

In May and June 2020, more that 300 dead elephants were found in Botswana´s Okavango Delta. Initially it was suspected that poaching was the reason, but it was later shown that they were poisoned by cyanobacteria.

A large amount of lungs donated cannot be used for transplantation. Researchers at Lund Stem Cell Center, Lund University in Sweden and Skåne University Hospital have conducted an animal study bringing hope that more donor lungs could be used in the future. The researchers have launched a pilot study to investigate whether the treatment will have the same positive effects on human beings. About 19
