This $172,800 Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), will support research at Brigham & Women's Hospital Inc. to investigate the role of innate immunity and blood group-positive microbes in regulating anti-ABO(H) antibody production. The key objectives are to 1) define how innate immune factors like galectins impact levels of naturally occurring anti-blood group antibodies, and 2) determine the consequences of anti-blood group antibody repertoire on hemolytic transfusion reactions. This research aims to provide new insights into the fundamental mechanisms underlying the most common immunological barrier to transfusion and transplantation. The award period runs from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2026. Brigham & Women's Hospital Inc. is a renowned academic medical center and research institution that conducts cutting-edge biomedical investigations and supports national health initiatives through federal grants and contracts.
