Charlotte Ling, researcher at Lund University Diabetes Centre, receives this year´s Novo Nordisk Foundation Excellence Project grant, five millions Danish crowns allocated during five years. Her project is about exploring whether epigenetic factors are underlying the development of Type 2 Diabetes. - This means very much to me and my research group. We will be able to expand and it will speed up t

No one can explain this strange phenomenon. The majority of type 2 diabetics who undergo metabolic surgery recover from diabetes only a few days after the procedure, long before any weight loss has occurred. Now researchers at Lund University Diabetes Centre plan to find out what is happening by studying both patients and pigs before and after metabolic surgery. - Since the recovery from diabetes

Despite the disappointing results in trying to treat children suffering from type 1 diabetes with the GAD vaccine, the treatment has not been written off entirely. DIAPREV-IT, the study in which healthy high-risk children are vaccinated, is continuing as planned, and now with more money behind it. "I am still hopeful that the GAC vaccine will work", says Helena Elding Larsson. Dr Elding Larsson is

Professor Olle Melander at Lund University Diabetes Centre and Skåne University Hospital in Malmö recieves Heart- and Lung Foundation´s large grant of 15 millions swedish crowns. By investigating the genome in tens of thousands has Olle Melander succeeded to identify markers in the blood which increase the risk of suffering from cardiovascular diseases. The next step is to investigate the markers

The fact that diabetes rases the risk of certain types of cancer is already well known, but the reasons have been unclear. Now researchers at Lund University in Sweden have mapped a molecular link that explains the connection between the two widespread diseases. Developing type 2 diabetes is a lengthy process. An early sign that it has begun is high levels of insulin in the blood. As long as the i

Despite of more advanced methods than in the routin care it will not be determined which kind of diabetes every fifth new diabetic patient is suffering from. In the ANDIS-project (All New Diabetics In Scania) the concepts will be sorted out. ANDIS also shows that one form of diabetes, LADA, which 15 years ago not even was described is twice as common today as type 1 diabetes. - Diabetes is a more

Using a new method, diabetes researchers at Lund University, Sweden, have been able to reveal more of the genetic complexity behind type 2 diabetes. The new research findings have been achieved as a result of access to human insulin-producing cells from deceased donors and through not only studying one gene variant, but many genes and how thay influcence the level of the gene in pancreatic islets

Could a capsule of insulin crystals a day stop the development of type 1 diabetes? There are indications that this could be the case. In the international TrialNet study, which follows relatives of individuals with type 1 diabetes, researchers are investigating whether oral insulin could prevent or delay the disease. Something to offerType 1 diabetes is the autoimmune form of diabetes, in which th

When a patient is diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, the disease has usually already progressed over several years and damage to areas such as blood vessels and eyes has already taken place. To find a test that indicates who is at risk at an early stage would be valuable, as it would enable preventive treatment to be pTextut in place. Researchers at Lund University have now identified a promising can

Researchers at Lund University, Sweden, are studying whether it is possible to prevent obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease by reducing levels of the hormone vasopressin in the blood. 
- If you dilute the blood by drinking water, the body releases less of the hormone vasopressin, which can potentially lead to diabetes, says Sofia Enhörning, a doctor who has recently completed her PhD at Lu

Type 2 diabetes has strong hereditary tendencies and the genes we are born with cannot be changed. However, new research from Lund University in Sweden shows that we can modify the function of the genes through the epigenetic changes that take place in the course of life. Epigenetic changes are usually described as a link between heredity and environment and come about as a result of factors such

The majority of patients with type 2 diabetes who undergo a gastric bypass operation recover from the disease within a few days of the operation, long before their body weight falls. No one knows how this happens, but researchers at Lund University Diabetes Centre in Sweden have now come up with a partial answer.

In recent years, researchers have discovered around 70 genetic risk variants for diabetes, but still TCF7L2, known as the diabetes gene, is the gene that carries with it the largest risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Using a new method called exon skipping, Ola Hansson at Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC) wants to learn more about TCF7L2 by studying new ways of delaying the onset of type 2 d
