Is it possible to improve the antibodies that the body produces to fight SARS-CoV2? In a study led by researchers from Lund University in Sweden, this was investigated by redesigning antibodies and combining them against the virus. The modified antibodies have been tested in human cells and with mice. Many antibodies used to treat covid infection during the pandemic have been so-called neutralizin

When in life we gain weight can have a significant impact on our health many years later. In a study involving over 600,000 people, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated how changes in weight between the ages of 17 and 60 are linked to the risk of dying from various diseases. The results show a clear pattern: weight gain early in adulthood has the greatest impact. It has long

Soot can be emitted from both natural and anthropogenic sources, including mineral deposits, open forest fires, savanna burnings, biomass burning, residential burning, and fossil fuel combustion. It absorbs solar radiation and contributes to atmospheric heating. Soot nanostructures contain varying levels of toxic chemicals that can penetrate deep into the bodies of humans and animals, leading to r

Antibodies are the body's superheroes, recognizing and eliminating disease-causing substances. By combining parts from antibodies, researchers at Lund University have designed a hybrid antibody that better stimulates the immune system against both the SARS-CoV-2 virus and streptococcal bacteria. Antibodies can be likened to keys, with antigens as the corresponding locks. Each antibody is uniquely

Antikroppar är kroppens superhjältar som känner igen och röjer undan sjukdomsframkallande ämnen. Genom att kombinera delar från antikroppar har forskare vid Lunds universitet designat en hybridantikropp som bättre stimulerar immunförsvaret mot både SARS-CoV-2-virus och streptokockbakterier. – Hybridantikroppen är betydligt bättre än kroppens egna antikroppar på att bekämpa såväl streptokocker som

Går det att förbättra antikropparna som kroppen tillverkar för att bekämpa SARS-CoV2? I en studie som publiceras i PNAS och som letts av forskare från Lunds universitet, har man undersökt detta genom att designa om antikroppar och kombinera dem mot viruset. De modifierade antikropparna har testats i möss och med mänskliga celler. Många av de antikroppar som använts för att behandla covid-infektion
