Universitat Internacional de Catalunya
Una universitat és coneixement, recerca i transferència. A UIC Barcelona dediquem el temps i l’esforç a aprendre amb l’objectiu de canviar el món. L’humanisme cristià ens inspira per cercar la veritat, i ho fem a través de la recerca en totes les àrees del saber. Promovem el coneixement que ens acosta al perquè més íntim de les coses. La recerca és un dels eixos prioritaris en l’activitat dels docents: dediquen el seu temps a la recerca i a formar persones lliures, amb criteri, capaces de produir noves idees i utilitzar les principals fonts de coneixement: l’observació, l’experimentació, la raó inductiva i la deductiva. Aquest és l’esperit investigador de UIC Barcelona.

The bone is a very complex organ that participates in multiple critical functions for the human body. Bone can be affected by different health issues, such as physical trauma or tumor, and the body cannot regenerate large ...
The field of tissue engineering relies on the use of biomaterials as scaffolds for tissue and organ regeneration. If properly designed, these scaffolds can mimic the in vivo microenvironment while also providing initial ...
Obesity has become a pandemic disease in the last 40 years. The WHO estimates that the population with overweight has nearly tripled since 1975, and the tendency is still growing. These data have an impact on health and ...
The cell cycle is regulated at different layers of control in either homeostatic or non-homeostatic conditions. Hence, in this work we analyse how time and stress modulate the cell cycle through the activity of the G1 ...
Iron is a biometal involved in many physiological processes essential for life. Regulation of both systemic and cellular iron homeostasis is crucial for health. The IRP/IRE post-transcriptional regulatory system is in ...

Debido a la gran variedad, la fácil accesibilidad y portabilidad de los dispositivos de pantalla, además, de la amplia oferta de contenido multimedia, el tiempo de pantalla ha pasado a ser un aspecto muy importante en ...
Carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1 (CPT1) are enzymes that catalyze the conversion of long-chain acyl-CoA to acyl-carnitines, to transport long-chain fatty acids across intracellular membranes. CPT1C isoform is highly ...
Bone is a complex and dynamic tissue that fulfills several critical functions such as protecting vital organs including the brain, heart and lungs; providing sites of attachment for muscles to allow movement and maintaining ...
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are considered the most deleterious lesions of DNA and they are repaired by means of two main mechanisms: homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous endjoining (NHEJ). These mechanisms ...
Nowadays, the most common solution to maintain the teeth of patients that have suffered from a traumatism or a profound caries and have ended with root canal infection is to perform a root canal treatment. For this purpose, ...
Angiogenesis, which results in a capillary network formation, is one of the crucial events that take place when there is tissue damage, being critical for successful tissue regeneration. It does not only allow the arrival ...
