För första gången har forskare kopplat specifika defekter i spermier till graviditetskomplikationer och negativ effekt på barnets hälsa. Studien från Lunds universitet visar att DNA-skador på pappans spermier fördubblar risken för havandeskapsförgiftning för kvinnor som blivit gravida genom IVF. Dessutom ökar risken för barnet att födas för tidigt. Ungefär 20–30 procent av alla barn som föds med h

Studier av tarmfloran kan ge ny kunskap om hur hälsan och risken för att utveckla olika sjukdomar påverkas. Marju Orho-Melander vid Lunds universitet är en av författarna till två nya artiklar i Nature Genetics som har upptäckt flera nya genvarianter i den mänskliga arvsmassan som har betydelse för vilka bakterier som finns i tarmen. Vissa av de nya genvarianterna kan kopplas till ökad risk för ce

Bone and skeletal injuries cause extensive and long-term functional impairments worldwide. In a new study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show how a cell-free cartilage structure can safely guide bone repair without triggering strong immune responses. The transplant has been successfully tested in animal models, and the next step is to evaluate the tissue engineering approach in humans.
