This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) provides $765,223 to The University of Iowa to investigate metabolic reprogramming as a novel approach for treating deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and preventing post-thrombotic syndrome. The project aims to define how targeting the dimeric form of the enzyme pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) in platelets, neutrophils, and macrophages can limit acute DVT progression, resolve venous thrombi, and prevent chronic inflammation and fibrotic venous wall injury. This 4-year research effort, running from August 2025 to May 2029, leverages the University of Iowa's expertise in vascular biology, inflammation, and metabolic regulation to develop new therapeutic strategies for this major cardiovascular health issue.
