The discovery, published in the journal Immunity, identifies a new therapeutic route for conditions associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome, including cardiovascular disease

A CNIC study extends the understanding of how acquired mutations in blood cells act as a new cardiovascular risk factor

A study published in Nature Cell Biology confirms that caveolae are essential for the mechanical responses of tissues subject to large mechanical forces (such as muscle, heart, blood vessels, and fat), whereas larger membrane depressions (termed 'dolines') are important for the response to weak or medium-strength forces

The results of the SPHERE-HF study are published in the European Journal of Heart Failure. SPHERE-HF is a multicenter academic clinical trial led by investigators at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) and Hospital Clínic de Barcelona
