Guadalupe Sabio Buzo (born 4 June 1977) is a Spanish scientist and Professor at the Spanish National Cardiovascular Research Centre, which is part of the Carlos III Health Institute. Her research considers stress-activated kinases and the development of diseases associated with obesity. She was awarded the Princess of Girona Foundation Scientist Prize in 2012 and selected as one of the Top 100 Women Leaders in Spain in 2017.
Sabio was born in Badajoz in 1977. She attended the Colegio del Santo Ángel and the Institute of San Fernando. [1] She studied veterinary sciences at the University of Extremadura, and graduated in 2000 with an extraordinary award. [2] She has said that she chose to study veterinary science as she liked animals very much, and that this could help her understand the origins of diseases. [1] She moved to the United Kingdom for her doctoral studies, where she joined the University of Dundee as a Medical Research Council European graduate student. She completed her doctorate on p38 delta kinases in 2005. [3] Whilst her PhD had taught her how to research in vitro, Sabio was keen to translate her research into mouse models. [3] She joined the research group of Roger Davis at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute where she studied the impact of stress on kinases proteins. In 2009 she was awarded Santiago Ramón y Cajal funding to join a biotechnology laboratory in Spain. [3]
Sabio joined the Spanish National Cardiovascular Research Centre in 2011. [4] Sabio is investigating the molecular mechanisms that are associated with obesity, and how they can predispose patients to other conditions such as hepatocellular carcinoma. [5] [6] Hepatocellular carcinoma is a type of liver carcinoma, and the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths. Whilst there is chemotherapy available, it can only increase a patient's life by three months. Sabio researches p38gamma, a kinase protein that is expressed excessively in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, and whether inhibition of this protein could reduce the cancer. She is developing drugs that inhibit p38gamma for the treatment of liver cancer. [7] She has also investigated the C-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK) protein, which is known to control obesity. [1]
She believes that obesity will be a major challenge for future generations, and it should be taken as seriously as smoking. [8] [9] By considering fat, adipose tissue, as an endocrine organ she believes people will think more carefully about how to care for it. [10] She believes that the best antidotes to obesity are exercise and diet. [4] [11] In 2017 Sabio was inducted into the European Molecular Biology Organization. [12]
Sabio has been involved in several initiatives to promote women in science. [13] She has called for more research into the symptoms of disease experienced by women. [5]
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of primary liver cancer in adults and is currently the most common cause of death in people with cirrhosis. HCC is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide.

The catalytic subunit α of protein kinase A is a key regulatory enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PRKACA gene. This enzyme is responsible for phosphorylating other proteins and substrates, changing their activity. Protein kinase A catalytic subunit is a member of the AGC kinase family, and contributes to the control of cellular processes that include glucose metabolism, cell division, and contextual memory. PKA Cα is part of a larger protein complex that is responsible for controlling when and where proteins are phosphorylated. Defective regulation of PKA holoenzyme activity has been linked to the progression of cardiovascular disease, certain endocrine disorders and cancers.
RhoC is a small signaling G protein, and is a member of the Rac subfamily of the family Rho family of GTPases. It is encoded by the gene RHOC.
High throughput biology is the use of automation equipment with classical cell biology techniques to address biological questions that are otherwise unattainable using conventional methods. It may incorporate techniques from optics, chemistry, biology or image analysis to permit rapid, highly parallel research into how cells function, interact with each other and how pathogens exploit them in disease.
United Left is a federative political movement in Spain that was first organized as a coalition in 1986, bringing together several left-wing political organizations, most notably the Communist Party of Spain.
José Martínez Morote is a Paralympic athlete from Spain competing mainly in category T20 track and field events. He has an intellectual disability, attended school in Cruz de Mayo and serves as a mentor to local track and field athletes. While he originally started sport playing football, he switched to athletics by the age of 16 at the suggestion of a teacher who noticed his speed with the ball. He has gone on to compete at the 2007 World Games, the 2011 IPC World Athletics Championships in Christchurch, New Zealand and the 2012 Summer Paralympics. Martínez has held at least two athletics scholarships to continue his participation in the sport.
