Det har inte funnits något känt samband mellan diabetes och vitamin A. Inte förrän nu. Den fråga forskarna ställde sig var varför de insulinbildande betacellerna har så rikligt med en nyupptäckt mottagare för A-vitamin? Deras svar är att vitamin A spelar en viktig roll både för betacellens utveckling i det tidiga stadiet i livet men även för överlevnad resten av livet. Vitaminet gör cellerna bättr

Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is a slowly progressing form of blood cancer that attacks the blood-forming cells in the bone marrow. The condition requires lifelong treatment that can cause severe side effects. Rebecca Warfvinge maps stem cells in patients in the hope of identifying predictive markers for how the patient will react to therapy. She has now received an award of USD 20,000 from the

Directly after birth, the immune system completes production of a subtype of antibody-producing immune cells, B-1, that are to last for a lifetime. No more B1-cells are formed after that point. However, these cells are self-reactive – they produce not only antibodies against foreign substances, but also against the body’s own substances, and it is unclear why the immune system allows for the devel

Radical right populist parties have often been treated as “pariahs,” being excluded from coalition politics in parliamentary democracies. How can we study this type of distancing behavior? We argue that negative rhetoric targeted at radical right populist parties in legislative debates is used by the established parties to distance themselves from such parties. Using sentiment analysis of speeches
