En ny epidemiologisk studie från Lunds universitet och Skånes universitetssjukhus visar att det finns ett samband mellan höga nivåer av tarmhormonet GIP i blodet och ökad risk för hjärtkärlsjukdom. Att tarmhormonerna GIP och GLP-1 (glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide och glucagon-like peptide) är viktiga för insulinproduktionen i bukspottskörteln är välkänt. Det är hormoner som bildas i tarma

Akut myeloisk leukemi (AML), är en av de vanligaste formerna av leukemi hos vuxna.

Studien som undersöker hur cancerklonerna utvecklas och konkurrerar med varandra, publiceras nu i Nature Communications. AML är en aggressiv blodcancerform som orsakas
