09.09.2024
roteins are the molecules responsible for cells, and therefore the whole organism, to work. They perform a myriad of different tasks, and they do so by ‘fitting’ into each other, like pieces of a tiny three-dimensional Tetris, on an atomic scale. So, to understand how proteins – and cells, and the organism – work, we […] - Manal Ahmed, the Egyptian researcher spending six months at CNIO, wants to develop CAR-T cell therapies in her country
28.08.2024
As soon as she started medical school, Manal Ahmed felt the appeal of immunology, “because it’s like a war. A war in which we fight against viruses, bacteria, even our own cells; actually, in cancer we fight against our own cells”. That is why this researcher at the Institute for Medical and Clinical Studies at […] - What we eat does change our cancer risk. CNIO researchers want to know why
22.08.2024
What we eat and drink influences the incidence, growth and progression of cancer, to the extent that diet can help to prevent a third of the most common tumours. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) points out that “there is solid evidence that a healthy diet and physical activity reduce the risk of […] - CNIO researchers discover a ‘switch’ for the desire to engage in physical activity: two proteins that get activated in the muscle during exercise
16.08.2024
Exercising is healthy, but not always appealing. Research led by Guadalupe Sabio from the National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO) may have found a switch that activates the desire to get moving, as it shows that during exercise the muscle activates proteins which encourage further activity. The paper is published in Science Advances. “We have discovered […]
