Protein that affects the ability to secrete insulin in type 2 diabetes

In type 2 diabetes, the body's ability to release insulin is impaired, which leads to high blood glucose levels. Research led from Lund University shows how the levels of a particular protein are elevated in the pancreas of people with type 2 diabetes. By knocking out the gene for the protein IGFBP7, the researchers discovered that insulin secretion was improved. Reduced insulin secretion leads to

Blood biomarker identified that predicts type 2 diabetes several years before diagnosis

Type 2 diabetes is a complex disease that can lead to serious health problems. It is important to find ways to predict the disease to take preventive measures. A large interdisciplinary study led by Lund University has identified a biomarker in the blood that predicts type 2 diabetes several years before diagnosis. Diabetes is on the rise and over time, diabetes can lead to complications such as c

Biomarker reveals inflammatory changes in the brain with Alzheimer’s disease

Inflammatory responses in the brain have long been suspected of playing a role in Alzheimer’s disease, but are challenging to monitor in the living human brain. An international collaboration including researchers at MultiPark, Lund University has made it possible to detect elevated levels of Galectin-3, a protein expressed in the immune cells inside the brain. The results were published in Acta N

Climate change means early flight start - risk of fewer bumblebees and reduced pollination

With the arrival of spring, bumblebee queens take their first wing beat of the season and set out to find new nesting sites. But they are flying earlier in the year as a result of warmer climate and changing agricultural landscape, new research shows. – The risk is that we will lose additional bumblebee species and have reduced pollination of crops and wild plants, says researcher Maria Blasi Rome

Managing clearcuts to favour certain species

Clearcutting is often considered negative for biodiversity, which is why continuous cover forestry is seen as a more favourable alternative. But could it be that clearcutting - with proper management from a landscape perspective - could favour certain species? Recently, it has become increasingly common to find birds and butterflies on clearcuts, species that normally thrive in areas such as hayfi

Link between selenium deficiency and heart failure

A research study at Lund University shows that there is an association between selenium deficiency and an increased risk of developing heart failure. The risk is twice as high for individuals with low selenium levels. Heart failure is a common condition affecting 250 000 Swedes. In heart failure, the heart cannot pump enough blood into the body, and the disease is associated with a poor prognosis.
