NIH grant awarded to study mechanisms driving post-operative peritoneal adhesions, focusing on PDGF signaling and mechanotransduction to find new therapies.
Description
This NIH grant supports research on the mechanisms of post-operative peritoneal adhesions, focusing on PDGF signaling pathways and mechanotransduction in cell types such as PDGFRα+ and PDGFRβ+ cells. The project aims to identify novel therapeutic approaches to prevent or reduce adhesions and fibrosis.
