Cardiovascular diseases are accountable for almost 50 % of the mortality number in Europe which is why research on its causes is highly prioritised. For practical and ethical reasons, in vitro study models are of high importance to enable research on cardiac abnormal behaviours. To meet this issue, researchers from Imec, Belgium, developed Neuray-II, the second generation of a biocompatible chip w

Popular Abstract in Swedish Fåglar har fascinerat människor i århundraden. Färgen på deras fjädrar, deras flyghöjd och deras förmåga att fånga små byten har skapat den allmänna uppfattningen att fåglar har en fantastisk syn. Föreställningen att fåglar har skarpare syn än människor är väletablerad hos jägare och fiskare och finns att hitta i litteraturen. Det finns emellertid tusentals fågelarter oAvian eyes are big both in relative and absolute terms, thus the importance of vision to birds is obvious. Even though the general eye plan is rather conservative throughout the group, there is a great variation in visual capabilities. In this thesis I present four studies on different aspects of spatial vision in parrots, procellariiform seabirds and birds of prey. In Paper I we studied retinal g

BACKGROUND: High-risk neuroblastoma (HR-NB) is associated with therapy-resistant relapse, and novel therapeutic strategies are needed. GSPT1 is a GTPase involved in protein translation whose disruption may offer therapeutic potential in translation-dependent cancers.METHODS: GSPT1 expression was assessed in publicly available clinical data and tissue microarrays. GSPT1-degrading molecular glues we

Cell fate reprogramming towards pluripotency or alternative somatic cell-types has highlighted the plasticity of adult somatic cells, providing new technologies to generate desired cell types for tissue repair or for disease modeling. There is momentum to bring these concepts to immunology by specifying unique immune cellular identities that set in motion immune responses. Dendritic cells (DCs) ar

AIM: SYT11 and SYT13, two calcium-insensitive synaptotagmins, are downregulated in islets from type-2 diabetic donors, but their function in insulin secretion is unknown. To address this, we investigated the physiological role of these two synaptotagmins in insulin secreting cells.METHODS: Correlations between gene expression levels were performed using previously described RNA-seq data on islets

BACKGROUND: Proteases are important enzymes in food and pharmaceutical industries, but challenges persist in their recombinant production due to host cell proteome hydrolysis and fitness loss. The development of recombinant expression systems for directed evolution of proteolytic enzymes, and industrial production are desirable. This study evaluated Saccharomyces cerevisiae as expression host for

  We focus on understanding the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying leukemogenesis with a special focus on infant leukemia. In particular we are interested in unravelling the biological mechanisms that drive clonal evolution, the emergence of drug resistance, and the role of tumor heterogeneity in these processes, ultimately leading to new effective therapies. We use a combination of state-of-the-a

Keynote presentation based on the book "Street Art and the Environment" (2018).

Type 1 diabetes is a complex disease characterized by the lack of endogenous insulin secreted from the pancreatic β-cells. Although β-cell targeted autoimmune processes and β-cell dysfunction are known to occur in type 1 diabetes, a complete understanding of the cell-to-cell interactions that support pancreatic function is still lacking. To characterize the pancreatic endocrine compartment, we stu

Objective: Subsets of CD21−/low memory B cells (MBCs), including double-negative (DN, CD27−IgD−) and Tbet+CD11c+ cells, are expanded in chronic inflammatory diseases. In rheumatoid arthritis (RA), CD21−/low MBCs correlate with joint destruction. However, whether this is due to the Tbet+CD11c+ subset, its function and pathogenic contribution to RA are unknown. This study aims to investigate the ass

Diversity leads to better science. Different perspectives and approaches promote discussion, sparking the creativity and innovation needed to generate the discoveries of tomorrow. At Lund Stem Cell Center (SCC), we believe that diversity, equity, and inclusion are vital for promoting scientific progress and forming the foundation of a flourishing and supportive academic research environment. We re
