New study: Parents' metabolic traits can affect the child's health over time

By petra [dot] olsson [at] med [dot] lu [dot] se (Petra Olsson) - published 8 April 2025 A human inherits genes from both parents and the genes control what traits a human should have. The researchers behind a new study have studied how metabolic traits are passed on from mothers and fathers to children. Photograph: Kennet Ruona New research at Lund University shows that the biological parents’ ge

Review: Type 2 diabetes and obesity – what do we really know?

Published 12 October 2016 Social and economic factors have led to a dramatic rise in type 2 diabetes and obesity around the world. In a review in Science, Mark McCarthy, professor at the University of Oxford, UK, and Paul Franks, professor at Lund University, Sweden, examine the knowledge of the actual causes and the interplay between genetics and lifestyle factors. By studying how our genes expre

Lund initiates genetic sequencing study in diabetes families to provide new insights into what causes the disease

Published 23 June 2016 Lund University Diabetes Centre has entered into a collaboration with the Regeneron Genetics Center LLC (RGC) and the University of Helsinki involving exome-sequencing and whole genome array genotyping of greater than 9,000 individuals. The collaboration will involve the largest sequencing study in diabetes families to date and aims to help generate knowledge about how to pr

THADA - new findings in the role of the mother in type 2 diabetes

Published 18 May 2016 Research from Lund University in Sweden can explain why type 2 diabetes is inherited to a greater extent from an individual’s mother. The heredity of a previously known risk gene, THADA, has proven to be dominant if it comes from the mother, whereas it has little or no effect on the child’s risk of disease if it originates from the father.
“Our research contributes to increas

New findings explain the connection between melatonin and type 2 diabetes

Published 13 May 2016 A new experimental and clinical study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the sleep hormone melatonin impairs insulin secretion in people with a common gene variant.

“This could explain why the risk of type 2 diabetes is greater among, for instance, overnight workers or people with sleeping disorders”, says Professor Hindrik Mulder who is responsible for the study. Mel

New findings can lead to a new principle for treating diabetic kidney damage

Published 12 October 2016 One in three people with diabetes will face some form of renal impairment in the course of their lives. Studies conducted by researchers at the Lund University Diabetes Centre may lead to the development of an entirely new principle for treating type 2 diabetes and preventing kidney damage in the future. Previous analyses have not been able to identify genetic causes as t
