New findings explain the connection between melatonin and type 2 diabetes

A new experimental and clinical study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the sleep hormone melatonin impairs insulin secretion in people with a common gene variant.

“This could explain why the risk of type 2 diabetes is greater among, for instance, overnight workers or people with sleeping disorders”, says Professor Hindrik Mulder who is responsible for the study. Melatonin is a naturally

New findings can lead to a new principle for treating diabetic kidney damage

One in three people with diabetes will face some form of renal impairment in the course of their lives. Studies conducted by researchers at the Lund University Diabetes Centre may lead to the development of an entirely new principle for treating type 2 diabetes and preventing kidney damage in the future. Previous analyses have not been able to identify genetic causes as to why some people have a h

Type 2 diabetes and obesity - what do we really know?

Social and economic factors have led to a dramatic rise in type 2 diabetes and obesity around the world. In a review in Science, Mark McCarthy, professor at the University of Oxford, UK, and Paul Franks, professor at Lund University, Sweden, examine the knowledge of the actual causes and the interplay between genetics and lifestyle factors. By studying how our genes express themselves in response

Obesity reprogrammes muscle stem cells

Obesity is associated with reduced muscle mass and impaired metabolism. Epigenetic changes that affect the formation of new muscle cells may be a contributing factor, according to new research from Lund University, Sweden. In a new study, doctoral student Cajsa Davegårdh has studied so-called DNA methylation in muscle stem cells in both obese and non-obese individuals. DNA methylation is an epigen

100 million SEK for personalized medicine in Diabetes

Almost 0.5 billion people have diabetes globally, many of whom are unaware of their condition; within the next two decades, this number is expected to double, largely owing to a growing, ageing, and increasingly industrialized global population. Lund University receives 100 million SEK from The Swedish Foundation of Strategic Research to help stop this development. “This is excellent news and a fa

Unique mapping of methylome in insulin-producing islets

Throughout our lives, our genes are affected by the way we live. Diet, exercise, age and diseases create imprints that are stored in something called methylome. Now, for the first time, researchers at the Lund University Diabetes Centre in Sweden have been able to map the entire methylome in the pancreatic islets which produce insulin, and the researchers have made several important discoveries.

A new bioinfomatics pipeline solves a 50-year-old blood group puzzle

Currently, a lot is known about which genes are responsible for our individual blood groups, however not much is understood about how and why the levels of the blood group molecules differ between one person and another. And this can be important for blood transfusion safety. Now a research group in Lund has developed a toolbox that finds the answer – and in doing so, has solved a 50-year-old myst

From enemy to friend – 33 million for reprogramming cancer cells

An international research project led from Lund University is now awarded 33 million SEK by the European Innovation Council, EIC Pathfinder. The idea behind the project is to use drugs to reprogram cancer cells into immune cells, in order to increase the body's natural anti-tumor response and fight cancer. And it is small molecules that will do the work. The research project that has received fund

Powering Down Cancer Cells – A New Way to Beat Leukemia?

Cancer cells are the ultimate sugar addicts, gobbling up glucose to fuel their growth and spread. What if we could starve them of their favorite food? A recent study in Blood Advances by Lund University researchers describes a new method to combat leukemia by disrupting the energy-making machinery of cancer cells, cutting off their dual energy supply. Despite advancements in treatment, acute myelo
