A study at Lund University reveals that traumatic brain injury alters the small vessels in the brain, resulting in an accumulation of amyloid beta — a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. The findings suggest that vascular dysfunction could be an early driver in neurodegenerative disorders rather than being caused by neuronal damage. The study is published in Acta Neuropathologica. An increased risk o

Tumörvävnadens styvhet spelar en roll för hur cancer sprider sig. Dessutom lämnar styv tumörvävnad spår i de drabbade cellerna. Detta visar två nya studier från Lunds universitet. – Detta hjälper oss att bättre förstå hur de mekaniska egenskaperna i tumörens mikromiljö aktivt driver cancerutveckling och spridning, säger Vinay Swaminathan, forskare vid Lunds universitet.
