Ancient wolves on remote Baltic Sea island reveal link to prehistoric humans
Scientists have found wolf remains, thousands of years old, on a small, isolated island in the Baltic Sea – a place where the animals could only have been brought by humans. The study, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences by researchers at the Francis Crick Institute, Stockholm University, the University of Aberdeen and the University of East Anglia, suggests that grey wolves may have been managed or controlled by prehistoric societies.
Sons of mothers with type 1 diabetes show early signs of vascular dysfunction
A new study reveals that sons born to mothers with type 1 diabetes may develop early vascular dysfunction – independently of metabolic health. The finding may help shape future strategies to prevent cardiovascular disease early in life. Children of women with type 1 diabetes are known to be at increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. A new study by researchers from Stockholm University and Karolinska Institutet and others is the first to show that the risk is linked to early dysfunction in blood vessel cells in sons, even before any metabolic issues arise. The study is published in Cell Reports Medicine. The researchers used a combination of animal models, Swedish and Danish health registries, and a small clinical study to explore the link. Results show a sex-specific effect: only sons displayed early vascular changes.
