Triple negative breast cancer is an aggressive type of cancer representing approximately nine percent of all breast cancer cases in Sweden. It is more common among younger women, has a high heredity factor and causes more frequent relapses earlier in the course of the disease than other breast cancers. Researchers hav

B cells and the antibodies they produce play an important role in our immune system, protecting us from the microscopic enemies that make us ill. Uncovering how they form and are ‘programmed’ during development is key to better understanding the immune response to infections and vaccinations. A new study by researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center at Lund University in Sweden provides new insights i

Forests have long been seen as a sink for greenhouse gases. Research conducted by scientists from University of Gothenburg has shown that over a forest rotation of 80 years, forest production on drained peat soil is a large source of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. MERGE/BECC researchers Hongxing He and Åsa Kasimir, Department of Earth Sciences, University of Gothenburg, are two of the authors

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The fact that diabetes rases the risk of certain types of cancer is already well known, but the reasons have been unclear. Now researchers at Lund University in Sweden have mapped a molecular link that explains the connection between the two widespread diseases. Developing type 2 diabetes is a lengthy process. An earl

What does a breath of air actually contain – and how does the air we breathe affect our health and society as a whole? And how can we protect ourselves from potential threats in the air that is essential to life? These are questions that the new ATLAS research project aims to answer by tracking the impact of air from molecule to society. The project has received the Swedish Research Council's Netw

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Directly after birth, the immune system completes production of a subtype of antibody-producing immune cells, B-1, that are to last for a lifetime. No more B1-cells are formed after that point. However, these cells are self-reactive – they produce not only antibodies against foreign substances, but also against the bo

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Heatwaves similar to those experienced in Europe in 2018 can have a very negative impact on animals. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that overheated birds have smaller offspring, and that those that are born may have lower chances of survival. Researchers were already aware that animals living in very
