Alva läser sitt sista år modevetenskap och blickar nu fram mot examen i juni. Genom att engagera sig i studentförening och projekt under studietiden har hon fått erfarenheter att ta med sig ut i arbetslivet. Hur kom det sig att du började läsa modevetenskap och vad vill du göra efter? Jag ville fördjupa mig inom mitt redan valda yrke, journalist, och ville ha mer kunskap om ämnet. Jag tyckte också

The incretin hormones GLP-1 and GIP act like the yin and yang on the body´s blood vessels. While GLP-1 has been associated with protective effects according to new research GIP can contribute to an increased risk of stroke. The findings are published in the scientific journal Diabetes. The incretin hormones GIP and GLP-1 are released from the intestine after eating to stimulate insulin secretion f

Do you eat a lot of chicken, pasta, cheese, dressing and oils? Or are you one of those who consume a lot of yogurt with cereal, but stay away from coffee and meat? Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have studied different food patterns and found that some consumption patterns are healthier than others. The result may perhaps not seem particularly sensational. It seems that what we usually re

What are the challenges within diabetes research today? And what are the strenghts of Lund university Diabetes Centre (LUDC) to meet those challenges? - Diabetes today is one of the largest global health problems that we have. I think that one of the main challenges we have is to make sure that we consider the patient and make sure we have proper therapies to offer, says Maria Gomez, coordinator L

The islets of Langerhans in the pancreas contain not only insulin-producing cells, but also four other hormone-producing cell types. Using a new method, researchers are to study their interaction by mapping previously unknown genetic networks. “It will give us new possibilities to direct medicines at new targets”, says associate professor Nils Wierup who will present the first part of the study at

Tord Ajanki started diabetesportalen.se just over a decade ago. Now he is to relinquish the editorship and retire. “It feels strange, good in one way, but it’s difficult to stop doing something that you have been involved in for so long”, he says.

The complement proteins that circulate in our blood are an important part of our immune system. They help identify bacteria, viruses and other harmful organisms, making it easier for our white blood cells to find and neutralise dangerous microbes. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now discovered a previously unknown function of the central complement protein, C3, which describes how C3

The TEDDY Study has increased our knowledge about what happens prior to the onset of autoimmune diabetes (type 1 diabetes) and has shown that a stomach infection can trigger coeliac disease. Lund University in Sweden has now received just over SEK 40 million from the American National Institutes of Health (NIH) to continue the TEDDY Study for another five years. “We have large volumes of data to a

Can insulin absorbed in small doses through food in early childhood get the immune system accustomed to insulin and thereby delay – or prevent – type 1 diabetes? Researchers hope to find the answer through POInT, a study starting in Skåne this autumn. Newborn babies in Skåne with a high risk of autoimmune diabetes (type 1 diabetes) can take part in the study. The infants from Skåne, together with

By blocking a protein, VDAC1, in the insulin-producing beta cells, it is possible to restore their normal function in case of type 2 diabetes. In preclinical experiments, the researchers behind a new study have also shown that it is possible to prevent the development of the disease. The findings are published in the scientific journal Cell Metabolism. The researchers at Lund University in Sweden

In the so far largest clinical study of the development of microbiomes, i.e. intestinal flora, in infants, researchers at the Baylor College of Medicine, USA, have found that development takes place in different phases that can be associated with lifestyle changes during the early stages in life. The findings are based on samples from the TEDDY study and are published in two articles in the scient

What do muffins and space travel have in common? Answer: They affect our genes through altered DNA methylation patterns. Two researchers who studied this recently met at the public defence of a doctoral thesis at Lund University. Andrew Feinberg from Johns Hopkins University's School of Medicine in Baltimore, USA, has often been called the "father of epigenetics”.  When the US Space Agency NASA de
