ENG- Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death and illness in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). However, the traditional prediction models for cardiovascular events, which are based on common risk ...
TGFβI gene promoter methylation as a biomarker of resistance to anti-HER2 therapies in HER2-positive breast cancer
ENG- HER2 positive breast cancer represents approximately 15-20% of breast cancer and it is associated with higher grade, more aggressive phenotype and worse prognosis. The prognosis of these patients has dramatically ...
Unravelling the relevance of Plakophilin-2 and Olfactomedin-2 in obesity
ENG- Obesity is a complex chronic disease linked to adipocyte dysfunction and a low-grade inflammatory condition leading to the impaired synthetic and secretory activity of hyperplastic depots of adipose tissue. As a ...
New insights in the study of the physiology of the adipose tissue
ENG- The prevalence of obesity has increased dramatically in recent years and has reached epidemic proportions. Obesity is a chronic multifactorial disease associated with an abnormal accumulation of dysfunctional adipose ...
