This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) provides $784,206 to Albert Einstein College of Medicine to investigate the role of the CSF-1/CSF-1R axis in cardiac repair and remodeling after myocardial infarction. The research aims to examine the effects of macrophage-specific CSF-1R activation and fibroblast-derived CSF-1 on infarct healing, as well as explore the therapeutic potential of early CSF-1/CSF-1R activation to improve cardiac repair. The project will utilize in vivo studies, single-cell transcriptomics, and in vitro assays to dissect the molecular mechanisms by which the CSF-1/CSF-1R axis modulates infarct macrophage phenotypes and function. The award has an initial project period from December 16, 2024 to November 30, 2028.
