Arvets betydelse för hjärtsvikt

Det är känt att hjärtsvikt ansamlas i vissa familjer men det är oklart om detta beror på en överföring av gener eller livsstil. Genom att studera adopterade personer och både deras biologiska föräldrar och adoptivföräldrar, kan aktuell forskning visa att det genetiska arvet är den dominerande faktorn när det gäller familjär förekomst av hjärtsvikt. Det är forskare verksamma vid Lunds universitet o

Ny försvarsmekanism mot bakterier upptäckt

Hudforskare vid Lunds universitet tror sig ha knäckt gåtan om varför vi på ett snabbt sätt lyckas hindra en infektion från att okontrollerat sprida sig i kroppen i samband med sårskador. En kunskap som de tror kan få klinisk betydelse för att utveckla nya sätt att motverka bakterier. – Vi kanske inte behöver döda dem med antibiotika utan bara samla ihop dem så att kroppen bättre kan ta hand om inf

Betestryck och biologisk mångfald – högre naturvärden genom anpassning och innovationer

Bete är en nyckelåtgärd för att bevara naturbetesmarker, några av Sveriges viktigaste livsmiljöer ur natur- och kulturvårdssynpunkt. Det är dock en utmaning att hitta rätt nivå på betet vilket leder till att många värdefulla marker betas för hårt, medan andra marker växer igen. För att diskutera utmaningar med ett högt betestryck, och öppna dörren till möjliga lösningar, bjöd LU Land in till ett f

Ancient giant marine reptile relied on stealth while hunting in darkness

Investigation of a metre-long front flipper, uniquely preserved with fossilized soft tissues, has revealed that the giant ichthyosaur Temnodontosaurus was equipped with flow control devices that likely served to suppress self-generated noise when foraging in dimly lit pelagic environments about 183 million years ago. Thus, this visually guided megapredator relied on underwater stealth—or ‘silent s
