A study published in Hepatology demonstrates that the activation of thermogenesis in the livers of obese mice contributes to weight loss and improves diabetes symptoms

The project will examine long-term changes in plasma biomarkers of neuronal injury, neuroinflammation, and Alzheimer's disease in participants in the PESA-CNIC-SANTANDER study who have undergone imaging studies to map brain metabolism. The goal of the project is to determine how cardiovascular risk factors during midlife impact brain function

The 3D atlas has allowed the scientists to identify the beginning of left–right asymmetry in the heart

The mixing of mitochondrial DNAs (mtDNAs) of two distinct origins can have damaging medium- and long-term effects, according to the results of a new study published in Circulation

Scientists at the CNIC have developed a simple model for studying the behavior of immune cells in live animals and have identified a harmful cell behavior pattern associated with cardiovascular disease

The study, published in PLoS Biology, shows for the first time that cardiac metabolism in the postnatal period determines the regulation of metabolism in the whole body

A study published in Science Advances shows that the gene GPR126, while not required for the development of the heart, plays an essential role in the formation of the placenta, the gestational organ that nourishes the fetus

The study, published in Nature Communications, reveals that Meis transcription factors are essential for the formation and antero-posterior patterning of the limbs during embryonic development
