This Project Grant award in the amount of $127,875 was provided by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837). The grant will fund multi-omic characterization of immune cells in sarcoidosis, a systemic granulomatous disease, at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation (OMRF). The key objectives are to: 1) develop predictive models of sarcoidosis susceptibility and disease burden using circulating protein levels, and...
The federal Project Grant award R01HL174432, in the amount of $751,954, was issued by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837). The award, effective August 1, 2024 through April 30, 2029, will support research at Stanford University to investigate the use of CXCR3 blockade as a potential precision therapy for cardiac sarcoidosis. The research project aims to utilize single-cell multi-omics and T-cell receptor...
This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), supports research aimed at determining the role of specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) in resolving inflammation and improving respiratory outcomes in individuals with emphysema. The award, totaling $139,088, will be used to characterize circulating SPM concentrations as a biomarker for decreased potential to resolve chronic...
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $200,502 Project Grant (CFDA 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research) to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to support research on proteomic and metabolomic trajectories of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) molecular phenotypes. The funding will allow the principal investigator, Dr. Narges Alipanah-Lechner, to develop expertise in computational methods, epidemiologic approaches, and systems...
This $374,063 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) will support research to better understand the mechanisms regulating granuloma formation and fibrosis in sarcoidosis. The key products and services to be delivered under this 2-year award include: Determining if activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and mineralocorticoid receptors (MRs) promotes sarcoidosis...
This $503,496 Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) supports research to improve treatment and outcomes for patients with hospital-onset sepsis at risk of acute respiratory failure (ARF). The key objectives are to: 1) Identify different clinical presentation phenotypes of hospital-onset sepsis, 2) Develop a predictive model to forecast ARF risk in these patients, and 3) Assess how...
This Project Grant award of $2,102,163 from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research) aims to implement an integrative genomic approach to identify genetically-driven pathways of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The primary awardee, Brigham & Women's Hospital, will use existing and generate new GWAS data, along with transcriptomics, proteomics, and newly collected lung/blood metabolomics data from 1,500 subjects, to determine...
This $807,434 Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) supports research to characterize alternative splicing related to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cigarette smoke exposure in human airway epithelial cells.

This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) provides $313,632.00 to National Jewish Health in Denver, Colorado to support a 5-year research project. The project aims to determine if fibroblast apoptosis resistance in progressive pulmonary fibrosis is driven by sustained interleukin-6 (IL-6) signaling, and whether targeting the IL-6-BCL-2 axis can be a viable therapeutic approach. The...
This $480,990 Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) supports research on the role of aerocytes, a specialized capillary endothelial cell population, in alveolar epithelial regeneration following acute lung injury. The research aims to investigate how aerocyte-derived signaling, particularly the R-spondin3 molecule, guides the regenerative remodeling of alveolar epithelium and establishes a...

This federal Project Grant award of $760,374 was provided by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) to National Jewish Health, a renowned respiratory hospital and research center in Denver, Colorado. The award supports an integrative metabolomics study to identify diagnostic and prognostic blood signatures associated with pulmonary sarcoidosis, a complex respiratory condition. The research aims to leverage a combination of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), gene expression, and plasma metabolomics/lipidomics data to develop predictive models for sarcoidosis diagnosis and disease progression, with a focus on understanding racial and sex differences. The study will utilize existing and prospectively collected blood samples, lung function, and imaging data from sarcoidosis patients and healthy controls at National Jewish Health and Mount Sinai Health System. This represents the largest integrative metabolomics study in a diverse sarcoidosis population to date, with the potential to identify therapeutic targets and biomarkers to guide preventive approaches for sarcoidosis progression.
