By analysing small microvesicles that cells release to communicate with their surroundings in the blood, researchers at Lund University map what happens in the brains of stroke patients. The study published in the scientific journal Stroke expands our understanding of stroke and opens doors to new treatment strategies.

The aggregation of the protein Amyloid-beta (Abeta) into plaques outside the nerve cells has been recognized in patients with Alzheimer’s disease since 1905. But eliminating the plaques has not helped patients so far. Still, Tomas Roos was recently recruited as a postdoc in our lab. He thinks that Abeta matters, but we may need to focus on the aggregates elsewhere. Earlier this spring, he defended

En randomiserad klinisk studie ledd av forskare vid Lunds universitet har jämfört effekten av intravenös behandling med ketamin mot ECT-behandling vid svår depression. Resultaten stärker bilden av ketamin som en möjlig behandling, men visar också att ECT-behandling hjälper fler. Under senare år har ketamin seglat upp som en ny behandling, eftersom studier visat att det har en antidepressiv effekt.
