Scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, a NYSERNet member, led by Ana Maria Cuervo, M.D., Ph.D., minimized artery-narrowing plaque in mice that would otherwise develop lesions. This study is the first to show that turning up CMA could effectively prevent atherosclerosis from becoming severe. The researchers found evidence that weak CMA activity correlates with atherosclerosis in people. Learn more here: https://bit.ly/3IjnHhr @nysernet @EinsteinMed
