Research project awarded to University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center to study molecular mechanisms of post-operative peritoneal adhesions, potentially leading to new therapies.
Description
This project aims to investigate the molecular mechanisms involved in the formation of post-operative peritoneal adhesions, focusing on PDGF signaling pathways and mechanotransduction in specific cell types. The research may lead to novel therapeutic approaches to prevent or reduce adhesions and fibrosis.
