University of Nottingham research could help predict diseases in men

News from the BBC

Researchers have discovered a hormone which could help predict whether men will develop certain diseases in later life.

Experts at the University of Nottingham have been studying INSL3 which develops in men during puberty.

They believe it offers an early marker for predicting of age-linked disease, giving medics the chance to prevent illness.

The findings are based on blood sample tests of some 3,000 men across Europe.
