This $548,816 Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research) supports research at the University of Illinois to investigate the role of the SEC16B protein in regulating lipid metabolism and transport in the liver. The project aims to define how SEC16B mediates the formation of lipid droplets and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion, which are key processes involved in cholesterol and triglyceride homeostasis. This research has potential implications for understanding and addressing atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. The project will utilize a range of in vitro and in vivo experimental approaches and is scheduled for completion by May 2029.
