Lund University researchers have developed an analytical model that can effectively detect and identify gene mutations in breast tumours. In the study, which is the largest of its kind anywhere in the world, they are now reporting results from 3,200 breast cancer patients. To assist them, they have utilised a technique known as RNA sequencing, a sensitive and precise tool that, while it is slowly

A drug has shown great promise in the treatment of neuroblastoma, an aggressive form of childhood cancer. The study was led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden, and is published in the journal Science Translational Medicine. Every year, about 20 children in Sweden are diagnosed with neuroblastoma, an aggressive cancer of the nervous system that most frequently arises in the adrenal glands.

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 a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of age associated disease.

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden studied self-grooming rats in order to better understand how the brain chooses what comes next in a sequence of actions. The study shows that when they switch from one action to the next in the grooming chain, the signalling in different parts of the brain changes. The results, published recently in Science Advances, increase understanding of which processe
