Ett internationellt forskarsamarbete lett från Lunds universitet visar hur magnesium tar sig in och ut genom cellmembranet. Magnesium är en livsviktig mineral som påverkar en rad biologiska processer i kroppen. Ämnet har bland annat betydelse för att cellernas energikraftverk, mitokondrierna, ska kunna producera och tillgodogöra sig kroppens energimolekyl, ATP.  När mitokondrierna inte fungerar ka

Det är sedan tidigare känt att personer med artros har ökad risk för hjärt-kärlsjukdomar, något som till största del förklarats med livsstils- och miljöfaktorer. Nu visar en studie från Lunds universitet att generna spelar större roll än vad man tidigare känt till, vilket tyder på att sjukdomarna kan ha gemensamma genetiska rötter. Att personer med artros även har en ökad risk för hjärt-kärlsjukdo

Nordic and Andean countries started their economic modernisation in the same way: with export of raw natural resources. Later on, Norway and Sweden became rich, while Bolivia, Chile and Peru followed a quite different path. What made them diverge from the common road? Different fiscal policies may be one of the reasons, new research from Lund University suggests. In the mid-19th century, Norway ex
