Idag finns teknologi som med extremt hög upplösning gör det möjligt för forskarna att kartlägga strukturen på cellernas minsta beståndsdelar, som kroppens proteiner. Genom att förstå hur de ser ut och interagerar med sin omgivning, lär sig forskarna mer om hur våra celler fungerar. Både när vi är friska, och när vi är sjuka. Kunskap som kan leda till mer effektiva läkemedelsbehandlingar, designade

Under fosterstadiet pågår flera olika så kallade cellprogram som är viktiga för fosterutvecklingen. I en studie som publiceras i Cell Reports visar forskare vid Lunds universitet på studier i möss att ett av dessa program verkar skydda mot cancerformen akut myeloisk leukemi, AML. – Vi har använt en experimentell musmodell som alltid leder till denna typ av leukemi. Det intressanta är att när vi ti

Gränserna mellan biologi och teknologi suddas ut. Forskare vid Linköpings, Lunds och Göteborgs universitet har lyckats odla elektroder i levande vävnad med kroppens egna molekyler som utlösare. Resultatet, som publicerats i tidskriften Science, banar väg för tillverkning av helt integrerade elektroniska kretsar i levande organismer. – I flera decennier har vi försökt skapa elektronik som härmar bi
