The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, doing business as Clinical Practices of the University of Pennsylvania, a $162,500 Project Grant (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) on September 22, 2023. The grant supports the development of tools to visualize the construction and assembly of the Posterior Signaling Center (PSC), a cell niche that controls the progenitors of insect immune cells. The research aims to understand the mechanisms underlying the formation of this specialized niche, which closely parallels the vertebrate immune system. Key activities include constructing transgenic lineage-labeling lines, conducting real-time in vivo imaging of the PSC assembly, and profiling the transcriptional landscape of PSC cells to identify new markers. This work will provide the foundation for a future substantive grant proposal to directly address the mechanisms of hematopoietic niche formation.
