The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) a $150,000 Project Grant under CFDA 93.847, the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program. The grant, which runs from Sep 1, 2023 to Aug 31, 2024, will fund a study to identify factors that contribute to clonal expansion and disease progression in clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP). The research aims to dissect the pathogenic mechanisms of clonal myeloid disorders and identify therapeutic targets to reverse disease progression. Specifically, the study will use a systems hematology approach to characterize the epigenetic responses to TET2 loss and impute genotype onto transcriptional single cell data to understand the immune effects and epigenetic changes that precipitate a disrupted microenvironment in CHIP.
