Nya bevis för att typ 1-diabetes beror på virus

Ännu en länk har fogats till den beviskedja som pekar på att typ 1 diabetes orsakas av virusinfektioner. Forskare vid LUDC visar nu att det är dubbelt så vanligt att barn som föds på sommaren har antikroppar mot de insulinproducerande cellerna. Förklaringen är att deras mammor i början av graviditeten hade någon av vinterns många maginfektioner. - Ja, vårt fynd är ett starkt stöd för hypotesen att

Metaboliter avslöjar störningar i betacellen

Spår av den insulinproducerande betacellens ämnesomsättning bildar intrikata mönster som rätt tolkade ger viktig information om cellens funktion. Hindrik Mulder och hans forskargrupp har utvecklat metoder för att läsa dessa mönster som kan ge mer värdefull information än vad som är möjligt idag. Ett exempel är att i förväg kunna upptäcka personer i riskzonen för diabetes eller vilka diabetiker som
