The National Center for Cardiovascular Research (CNIC), and the Health Research Institute of Hospital 12 de Octubre (i+12), representing SERMAS, are actively participating in JACARDI through different pilot projects
A study published in Nature Cardiovascular Research reveals smooth muscle-derived cells as a new target for reducing the size of atherosclerotic plaque. The results open up new avenues for the design of treatments to enhance the beneficial effect of cholesterol-lowering drugs
CNIC and the i+12 Institute co-lead one of the working groups of this initiative.
A new CNIC study shows that low-grade systemic inflammation triggered by subcinical atherosclerosis accelerates epigenetic aging in otherwise healthy young individuals
