Researchers identify molecules with potential therapeutic use as immunosuppressive agents

Researchers from the Human Molecular Genetics at IDIBELL, led by Mercè Pérez, of the Autonomous University of Barcelona and the CIMA Clinic of Navarra, has identified two small organic compounds that compete with NFATc to join in the same place calcineurin protein and that could have a potential immunosuppressive effect. Activation of the immune response

Determined the molecular causes of the recovery of sense of balance in ototoxicity

The vestibular system is localized in the inner ear and provides the sense of balance. One cause of vestibular dysfunction is the loss of sensory hair cells (HCs) following exposure to ototoxic chemicals. A research team at the University of Barcelona has contributed to better understand other causes of vestibular dysfunction and recovery in chronic
