It has previously been difficult to identify DNA mutations in sperm, as these changes are rare, and most sequencing techniques have a large margin of error. Now a research study led from Lund University, have conducted a pilot study in which they examined sperm DNA and it’s similarity to mutations in children, using the advanced technique called duplex sequencing. Nearly 80 percent of all new muta

I en ny experimentell studie visar forskare hur alzheimerproteinet amyloid-beta ansamlas inuti nervcellerna och hur det felveckade proteinet sedan sprids från cell till cell via nervtrådar och fortplantar sig i en ond spiral. Alzheimerproteinet uppkommer inuti cellerna långt tidigare än de synliga extracellulära placken som bildas efterhand som sjukdomen fortskrider. Den aktuella studien bygger vi

Under upp till 40 år har nära 800 000 personer från Sverige, Norge och Österrike följts utifrån hur deras BMI och metabola hälsa påverkar risken att drabbas av fetmarelaterade cancersjukdomar. Studien visar att metabol ohälsa avsevärt ökar risken för vissa cancerformer, vid normalvikt såväl som vid övervikt och fetma. Det är sedan tidigare känt att fetma kan kopplas till dryga tiotalet olika cance

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have identified the top 12 ways European cities have been able to curb car use. The most effective measure was applying a congestion charge, with the notable case of London, where city traffic dropped by 33% following the change. Most success stories involved both “carrots” to encourage sustainable mobility and “sticks” to restrict cars, according to the st
