The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), awarded a $880,735 Project Grant to the University of Washington. The grant, effective February 1, 2025 through November 30, 2028, supports research to investigate the mechanisms by which cell lysis and the release of leukotriene C4 (LTC4) and its metabolite LTD4 activate group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) and induce type 2 immunity in the lung. The research aims to...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $1,061,189 to support research on immune crosstalk in lung injury and fibrosis. The key objectives are: 1) studying epithelial HB-EGF regulation of fibrosis and its interaction with myeloid cells, 2) uncovering mechanisms for impaired innate immunity against gram-positive infections...
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $557,649 project grant (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) to the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) to study the molecular regulation of beta-2 integrin activation in neutrophil adhesion and inflammation related to cardiovascular disease. The 5-year research project aims to investigate how the proteins kindlin-3 and talin-1 induce activation of beta-2 integrins, which is a key step in neutrophil recruitment and...
The National Institutes of Health National Heart Lung and Blood Institute awarded a $511,680 Project Grant to the University of Illinois under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837). The grant will fund research from February 2021 through August 2021 to investigate mechanisms by which vascular endothelial cells instruct macrophage fate in inflammatory injury. Specifically, the research will examine how endothelial cell Wnt signaling licenses the differentiation of monocytes...

This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $759,025 to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The funding will support research to uncover and understand the diverse functions of the ICAM-1 protein in the lungs during homeostasis and innate immune responses. Key objectives include determining the functions of soluble ICAM-1 in the alveolar space, the role of ICAM-1 on alveolar epithelial cells during homeostasis and infections, and the functions of endothelial ICAM-1 during innate immune responses. This comprehensive research project aims to expand scientific understanding of ICAM-1 and explore its therapeutic potential for addressing cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases.
