This $1,344,373 Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) supports research to investigate cardiac regeneration in human cells and zebrafish models. The primary objectives are to: (I) assess the dynamic gene regulatory networks involved in zebrafish heart regeneration using single-cell ATAC-seq, (II) interrogate the reactivation of developmental gene programs in human cardiac organoids after injury using multiomics...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $1,204,160 to evaluate the AMPK-BACH1-NRF2 pathway as a potential therapeutic target for inherited dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The primary goal is to determine if activating this signaling pathway can restore contractile function in multiple forms of inherited DCM, including those caused by mutations in myofilament and...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) will support research to identify novel transcriptional regulators of endocardial-specific gene expression and understand their role in heart development, homeostasis, and regeneration. The overall project aims to delineate the gene regulatory networks controlling endocardial specification and function. Key objectives include determining how...
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $751,980 Project Grant (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) to Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) to investigate how cardiomyocyte growth is regulated in a fetal ovine model of reduced left ventricular filling. The goal is to understand how cardiomyocytes, the heart's muscle cells, grow and respond differently in fetuses with impaired left heart inflow, similar to the condition seen in Hypoplastic Left Heart...

The research will...

The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) has awarded a $788,513 Project Grant under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research Program (CFDA 93.837) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). The grant, titled "Mechanisms Underlying Maintenance of Cardiac Chamber Identity in Zebrafish," will support research to elucidate the genetic pathways that reinforce ventricular cardiomyocyte identity in the embryonic zebrafish heart. The project aims to identify the downstream effectors of FGF-MEK-ERK signaling that maintain ventricular identity, examine regional differences in ventricular plasticity, and test the role of these signals in human cardiomyocytes. This research is expected to provide novel insights into the mechanisms that balance ventricular commitment and plasticity, with potential applications for regenerative medicine and understanding congenital heart disease.
