This $701,842 Project Grant, awarded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), will support research at the University of South Florida to investigate the role of the CDK13 gene in the development of congenital heart defects. The project aims to utilize mouse models and human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes to better understand how mutations in CDK13 disrupt RNA processing and lead to cardiac pathologies. Key objectives include characterizing the cardiac phenotypes associated with CDK13 deficiency, establishing a high-throughput model of the CDK13-related disorder, and elucidating the molecular mechanisms by which reduced CDK13 function impacts heart development. The research, spanning from August 2025 to June 2029, is expected to provide important insights into potential treatment approaches for congenital heart diseases.
