Fallen av bröstcancer mellan två screeningundersökningar blev färre, och av de cancrar som hann utvecklas var färre allvarliga och aggressiva. Nu är slutresultaten från Lunds universitets forskningsstudie MASAI klara, och de visar på ytterligare nytta med AI-stödd bröstcancerscreening. Studien har redan tidigare visat att AI-stöd bidrar till 29 procent fler hittade fall av bröstcancer jämfört med

Forskare har för första gången identifierat en tidigare okänd försvarsmekanism i aggressiva hjärntumörer: en sockerrik sköld som omger tumörceller och som skyddar dem mot en särskilt destruktiv form av celldöd. Aggressiva hjärntumörer växer i en extrem miljö som präglas av syrebrist, näringsbrist, lågt pH och kronisk cellstress. Inuti tumören råder förhållanden som normalt skulle skada eller döda

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har gjort den hittills mest detaljerade kartläggningen av epigenomet i de celler som styr kroppens blodsocker. Studien, som publiceras i Nature Metabolism, visar hur kemiska förändringar på DNA påverkar både insulinproducerande betaceller och glukagonproducerande alfaceller – och hur dessa mönster förändras vid typ 2-diabetes. Alla celler i kroppen har samma uppsättn
