New study: Lost brain function restored after stroke

Researchers have succeeded in restoring lost brain function in mouse models of stroke using small molecules that in the future could potentially be developed into a stroke therapy. “Communication between nerve cells in large parts of the brain changes after a stroke and we show that it can be partially restored with the treatment", says Tadeusz Wieloch, senior professor at Lund University who led

Cell-specific Biomarkers in the Blood Reflect What Happens in the Brain During Stroke

By analysing small microvesicles that cells release to communicate with their surroundings in the blood, researchers at Lund University map what happens in the brains of stroke patients. The study published in the scientific journal Stroke expands our understanding of stroke and opens doors to new treatment strategies.

Amyloid Oligomers, capturing the threat between disorder and order: a PhD thesis by Lei Ortigosa-Pascual

Popular Science SummaryWe are all familiar with the idea that living organisms are made of atoms and molecules. But not everyone knows that one of those molecules that are crucial for our lives are proteins. And no, they aren’t just something we have to eat. Proteins are an essential molecule which form our cells, together with fat, sugars, and nucleic acids. Proteins are the workforce of the cell

Groundbreaking Alzheimer’s blood test proves highly effective in primary healthcare

A commercially available blood test has now been trialled in routine healthcare. “The blood test showed about 90% reliability even in primary care. This may have major implications for all those individuals who seek help for memory loss and suspected Alzheimer’s,” say the researchers at Lund University in Sweden behind the study. Alzheimer’s disease affects one in five women and one in ten men ove
