De har också oftare en pågående inflammation i kroppen. Fyndet är ytterligare ett i raden som länkar samman diabetes och lågintensiv inflammation. Bakom det upptäckta sambandet står finska och engelska forskare som följt drygt 5 600 person

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Enzymet arginas kan spela en nyckelroll för uppkomsten av hjärt- kärlsjukdom hos personer som redan har diabetes typ 2. Arginas motverkar enligt forskarna bildningen av skyddande kväveoxid i blodkärlen – och behandling som hämmar detta enzym visade sig minska risken för kärlkramp hos diabetespatienterna. Detta visar

Diabetesforskare vid Lunds universitet har tidigare visat att det är möjligt att dela in diabetes i fem olika grupper med olika sjukdomsutveckling. En ny studie av samma forskare ger ökat stöd för att indelningen kan bli användbar inom sjukvården i framtiden. Forskarna har dessutom gjort nya fynd som visar på skillnader mellan grupperna när det gäller utvecklingen av komplikationer. – Många patien

For the first time, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has successfully reprogrammed mouse and human skin cells into immune cells called dendritic cells. The process is quick and effective, representing a pioneering contribution for applying direct reprogramming for inducing immunity. Importantly, the finding opens up the possibility of developing novel dendritic cell-based immunotherapi

“We are dependent on one another globally – this became evident not least through the Ebola epidemic. For cooperation to work and develop, Africa cannot be left out of the loop”, says Benedict Oppong Asamoah, researcher and lecturer in public health.

When researchers at Lund University in Sweden performed advanced analyses of sputum from the airways of severely ill Covid-19 patients, they found high levels of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). It is already a known fact that NETs can contribute to sputum thickness, severe sepsis-like inflammation and thrombosis. After being treated with an already existing drug, the NETs were dissolved and

In the early 1950s, no one knew what caused Parkinson's disease. Then, Arvid Carlsson's discovery of dopamine opened the door to world-leading transplantations for Parkinson's patients. Thanks to the pioneering basic research at MultiPark, stemcell-derived neural cells can now be tested in a clinical trial for the first time. In Parkinson's disease, the nerve cells in an area of the brain that con

Ett svenskt-amerikanskt forskarteam har nyligen publicerat två artiklar i Journal of Neurophysiology där de med ett nytt modellsystem förklarar ryggmärgens tidiga inlärning och hur centrala nervsystemet lär sig kontrollera kroppen. Det vill säga, hur kopplingarna mellan ryggmärgen och kroppen skapas samt hur andra delar av hjärnan kopplar in sig mot ryggmärgen. – Detta är relevant ur ett djupt gru
