Ju fetare man är, desto mindre av proteinet SIK2 har man i sina fettceller. Ny forskning visar att SIK2 främjar fettcellernas insulinkänslighet och upptaget av glukos. - Resultaten visar att SIK2 kan ha en skyddande effekt i uppkomsten av insulinresistens, säger Johanna Sernevi Säll. SIK2 (salt-inducible kinase 2) tillhör en grupp proteiner som har stor betydelse för ämnesomsättningen, och SIK2 tr

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Den mest strategiska platsen för jultomtens hem och julklappsdistribution är Jokkmokk. Det menar forskare vid Lunds universitet som med hjälp av satellitbilder har beräknat jordens befolkningsmässiga mittpunkt. Resultaten talar alltså emot att tomtens hemstad skulle vara Rovaniemi, som finnarna brukar hävda. Faktum

In the future, our clothes will contain a tag that we can scan to access information. This will allow us to see how the garments were produced, where we can have them repaired, and how they can be recycled. Perhaps we will even be able to see who has previously worn the garment or be given the opportunity to rent it out. This spring, an innovation project was launched in which students at Campus H

The areas of research remain the same, but our perspective on them has changed. This is how consumer researchers Carys Egan-Wyer and Emma Samsioe describe developments in retail research over the past ten years. "In one of our latest reports, we call it “Retail as unusual”. There is no longer a ‘normal’ state in retail, no ‘business as usual’. Everything has become more uncertain,” says Carys Egan
