För första gången testas en behandling av typ 2 diabetes som riktar sig mot själva sjukdomsmekanismen, inte som tidigare enbart mot symtomen. Och för första gången används kunskap om den enskilde individens genetiska riskprofil. Behandlingen återställer helt den bristande förmågan att utsöndra insulin som riskgenen

I en studie som nyligen publicerades i den vetenskapliga tidskriften Brain Communications presenterade forskare från Institutionen för klinisk vetenskap och enheten för Klinisk minnesforskning vid Lunds universitet resultat som visar att det finns genetiska riskmarkörer för typ 2-diabetes som kan vara kopplade till en ökad risk för demenssjukdom. Det betyder att en ärftlighet för diabetes också ka
