Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered an antibody with the potential to protect against Strep A infection, as well as a rare form of antibody binding, that leads to an effective immune response against bacteria. The discovery could explain why so many Group A strep vaccines have failed. The results are published in EMBO Molecular medicine. Group A streptococci have several ways

The cells that produce insulin and glucagon are difficult to access, as they are located inside the fragile pancreas. Researchers looking to understand how they function and what underpins the development of diabetes are therefore often advised to conduct their experiments on animals. The Human Tissue Lab, on the other hand, provides researchers with access to cells from deceased human donors; thi

An international research team has conducted the largest genetic study ever on osteoarthritis—using data from nearly two million people. They found 962 genetic associations, more than 500 of which are completely new. This provides a much more detailed picture of the biological basis of the disease. What does this mean?Of the 962 genetic associations, the researchers identified 700 genes that appea

There were fewer cases of breast cancer between two screening rounds, and of the cancers that did develop, fewer were advanced or aggressive. The final results from Lund University's MASAI trial are now available, and they show further benefits of AI-supported breast cancer screening. The study has already shown that AI support in mammography screening contributes to a 29 percent increase in detec
