Inflammatoriska reaktioner i hjärnan har länge misstänkts vara involverade vid Alzheimers sjukdom, men de är svåra att studera i den levande mänskliga hjärnan. Ett internationellt samarbete med forskare vid MultiPark, Lunds universitet, har gjort det möjligt att upptäcka förhöjda nivåer av Galektin-3, ett protein som uttrycks i hjärnans immunceller. Resultaten publicerades i Acta Neuropathologica

Every person ages, yet only some develop Parkinson’s Disease, and scientists still don’t know why. A new international effort involving a research team from Lund University aims to uncover what makes certain aging brains more vulnerable than others, focusing on the epigenetic changes that accompany growing older. Their work is supported by a new 81 million SEK grant from the Aligning Science Acros

Each year, around 350 children in Sweden are diagnosed with cancer. Thanks to progress in research and treatment, six out of seven children today survive. But unlike cancer in adults, we don't know what causes most childhood cancers to develop. This spring Barncancerfonden, the Swedish Childhood Cancer Foundation, awarded SEK 64 million to 29 researchers across the country. The funding includes po

Att rekrytera artrospatienter med mycket smärta till kliniska studier, kan ge felaktigt resultat om forskaren inte tar hänsyn till den naturliga smärtvariationen som förekommer. En forskargrupp från Lunds universitet uppmärksammar nu fallgroparna i forskningsstudier kring artros och publicerar sina rön som en kommentar i The Lancet Rheumatology.

How we feel about nature affects the gardening choices we make and how much those choices benefit pollinators. A new study from Lund University highlights this connection, particularly in the context of widespread urbanisation, which is reducing both green spaces and people’s contact with nature. The researchers also show that for pollinators in cities, gardens with plantings kept over many years
