Researchers help in the fight against Covid-19

With the enormous pressure on the Swedish health care system during the ongoing pandemic, researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center are helping battle Covid-19. In response to the increasing number of Covid-19 cases in the south of Sweden, researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center have been working at Lund University Hospital over the holiday period and into the new year, supporting Region Skåne.

A new interdisciplinary co-op between researchers, healthcare and industry formed to fight the virus

The fight against COVID-19 continues. In Lund, researchers have been awarded a large Vinnova grant to identify a compound that could be used to prevent viral infection, and thus save lives. The project is a co-operation between preclinical, clinical researchers and a company, an efficient way for creating synergies in research. Project Manager for the study is researcher Sinem Tas, Fellow in Darcy

Emma Hammarlund joins Lund Stem Cell Center

We are very happy to announce that Emma Hammarlund and the Evolution of Stemness Control and Multicellularity research group have joined Lund Stem Cell Center! Emma and her team aim to understand how the rise of animals on Earth relates to the evolution of stemness control, an event we know very little about. Why animals evolved on the Earth remains poorly understood. As does what drove unicellula

Activation of ancient viruses during brain development causes inflammation

Researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center highlight the importance of controlling viral elements that reside in the genome and how their activation during development may contribute to brain disorders later in life. Around 10% of the human genome is composed of DNA sequences originating from viruses that infected our ancestors throughout the millions of years of our evolution. Under normal conditions

Regulation of RNA splicing reveals unique clinical features of aggressive breast cancers

Researchers from Lund University in Sweden have identified a new layer of gene regulation mediated by changes in ribonucleic acid metabolism downstream of major oncogenes. This study, published now in the Molecular Cell journal, explains aggressive clinical features observed in triple negative breast cancers. A collaborative study between Lund Stem Cell Center (LSCC) and Lund University Cancer Cen

New method for developing antibody-based drugs

In recent years, therapeutic antibodies have transformed the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases. Now, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new, efficient method based on the genetic scissors CRISPR-Cas9, that facilitates antibody development. The discovery is published in Nature Communications. Antibody drugs are the fastest growing class of drug, and several therapeu

New model of human airways speeds up the battle against Covid-19

The fight against COVID-19 continues. In Lund, researchers are working to identify a compound that could be used to prevent viral infection, and thus save lives. “This model that has been developed with our collaborators will fill an important gap for current and future drug screening efforts for the upper or lower airways using human airway cells”, says Sinem Tas, associate researcher. The most r
