The most common form of childhood cancer is acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Together with Karolinska Institutet, SciLifeLab and the University of Cambridge, researchers at Lund University have conducted the largest ever analysis of ALL at protein level by studying activity in more than 8,000 genes and proteins. The results of the study show a deviant folding of the DNA strand which in turn af

Researcher Els Mansell, first author of the article published in Cell Stem Cell. In a collaborative study, researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center and University College London have developed a novel method of isolating ‘young’ stem cells still present in old mice. They show that activity of mitochondria, the power generators of the cell, is a stronger indicator of stem cell fitness than age and is

The single market of the EU is often hailed as the number one success story of European integration, and it is one of the reasons why the EU is seen as a law-making machine. Single market laws are partly focused on competition law, which sets out to ban state aid and other interventionist practices in order to create a level playing field among the EU’s businesses. But when these businesses enter
