This $722,958 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) aims to investigate the role of monocyte-derived galectin-1 in promoting tissue-resident memory T cell responses to influenza infection. The research seeks to (1) elucidate the differentiation of monocytes during immune memory formation after influenza infection, (2) determine how galectin-1 produced by a novel monocyte subset regulates protective antiviral T cell immunity, and (3) test a novel nasal vaccine strategy using recombinant galectin-1. The findings are expected to provide a scientific basis for vaccine strategies that can establish productive interactions between innate and adaptive immunity, leading to durable immunity against respiratory viruses. The award period runs from Nov 22, 2024 to Oct 31, 2029 and is being conducted by the University of Rochester.
