Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated the link between exposure to PFAS and the development of asthma. The results show that among children whose mothers had very high levels of PFAS exposure during pregnancy, the risk of asthma was significantly higher than among children whose mothers had lower levels of PFAS exposure. PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are

Martino Avallone spent the past four years developing tools for mapping gene expression and proteins in the brain to investigate basic biological questions and to elucidate the molecular mysteries contributing to Parkinson’s disease. On 29 September, he defends his thesis work done in the Molecular Neuromodulation research group. Here, he explains the impact these tools will hopefully have in scie

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. I genomsnitt har typ 1 diabetiker varje månad två till tre djupa insulinkänningar på natten. Blodsockret ligger för lågt, lägre än 3,3 mmol/L i allt mellan en halv timme till upp till tre timmar. Tillståndet är allvarligt, risken för krampanfall, till och med död, är stor.

Genom att omprogrammera cancerceller till immunförsvarets dendritceller, utvecklar forskare vid Lunds universitet ett nytt behandlingskoncept mot cancer. I ett internationellt samarbete har konceptet framgångsrikt testats på celler från sju olika cancerformer och verifierats i möss. Det handlar om att med rätt medel ”tvinga” cancerceller att utvecklas till celler som ingår i immunförsvaret. Med hj

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. När barn som nyligen insjuknat i typ 1 diabetes behandlades med Enbrel, ett läkemedel som används vid till exempel reumatoid artrit, återfick de en del av den så viktiga egna insulinproduktionen. Läkemedlet Enbrel är en så kallad TNF-hämmare som används vid reumatoid artrit, psoriasisartrit och andra autoimmuna sjuk

Ett samarbete mellan lundaforskarna Johan Jakobsson och Malin Parmar har lett till en ny metod för att studera åldersrelaterade hjärnsjukdomar. Forskarna har tagit avstamp i den neurodegenerativa sjukdomen Huntingtons. Studien är publicerad i den vetenskapliga tidskriften Brain. Inte sällan står medicinsk grundforskning inför utmaningen att utveckla sjukdomsmodeller som  svarar väl mot specifika s

David Wästerfors, Veronika Burcar Alm och Erik Hannerz har publicerat en artikel i New Media & Society som handlar om brottsdiskussioner på Flashback. Artikeln visar hur interaktionerna där bildar en ”skumpig” väg när skribenterna gemensamt försöker åstadkomma kännedom, bevis och auktoritet vad gäller de olika brotten som diskuteras. En stor del av dagens offentliga diskussioner om brottsfall äger
