100 million SEK for personalized medicine in Diabetes

Almost 0.5 billion people have diabetes globally, many of whom are unaware of their condition; within the next two decades, this number is expected to double, largely owing to a growing, ageing, and increasingly industrialized global population. Lund University receives 100 million SEK from The Swedish Foundation of Strategic Research to help stop this development. “This is excellent news and a fa

Unique mapping of methylome in insulin-producing islets

Throughout our lives, our genes are affected by the way we live. Diet, exercise, age and diseases create imprints that are stored in something called methylome. Now, for the first time, researchers at the Lund University Diabetes Centre in Sweden have been able to map the entire methylome in the pancreatic islets which produce insulin, and the researchers have made several important discoveries. U

Successful research funded by the European Research Council

Six researchers from Lund University Diabetes Centre have recieved prestigous grants from the European Research Council (ERC). In order to celebrate the success we invited the public to an open seminar. Some of the talks can be reviewed here (in Swedish).

From injections to pills - the research on neonatal diabetes

They govern everything we think and do, they give us the ability to feel pain and to secrete insulin: they are the ion channels that are present in every one of our cells and that control the electrical impulses in our nerve and muscle cells. “For me, they are the very spark of life”, says Dame Frances Ashcroft, professor at the University of Oxford, who is also now to be an honorary doctor at Lun

The role of vitamin A in diabetes

There has been no known link between diabetes and vitamin A -- until now. A new study suggests that the vitamin improves the insulin producing β-cell´s function.The researchers initially discovered that insulin-producing beta-cells contain a large quantity of a cell surface receptor for vitamin A. "There are no unnecessary surface receptors in human cells. They all serve a purpose but which, in ma

New research describes the differences between mice and humans

Research from King’s College in London, UK, and Lund University in Sweden could explain why diabetes drugs which have worked in animal experiments are not equally successful in humans. The researchers discovered differences – but also unknown similarities – in the function of insulin-producing beta cells. The team have mapped a category of receptors, known as G protein-coupled receptors, which con

LUDC-IRC ready for take off

Taking advantage of a novel sub-classification of diabetes LUDC-IRC, a newly launched collaboration between academia, the health care system and industry, aims at delivering precision medicine in diabetes.  - We have set the bar high. We very specifically aim at making a difference for diabetes patients by the end of this eight year program. We need to find smart ways to use all resources we colle

Newborn babies to be screened for studies on type 1 diabetes and celiac disease (gluten intolerance)

Can insulin taken as an infant in small doses together with food render the immune system used to insulin and thus prevent type 1 diabetes? Can a gluten-free diet and probiotics prevent celiac disease (so called gluten intolerance)? These questions will be asked by two separate studies that are being planned at Lund University in Sweden. A new comprehensive screening of newborn babies in southern

New drink keeps blood sugar in check

Food researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered that consuming small amounts of chromium mixed with certain amino acids before eating is healthy. Why? Well, this mixture diluted in water suppresses the blood sugar spike that occurs when we eat. Now, they are hoping that the drink – which tastes like ordinary mineral water – will be able to compete with soft drinks and flavoured water
