Research project funded by NHLBI, NIH, studying the effects of chronic hypoxia on cerebral blood flow autoregulation in newborns to identify therapeutic targets for preventing brain injury.
Description
The project investigates the impact of chronic hypoxia on cerebral autoregulation in newborns, focusing on mechanisms involving TrpC6 ion channels and epigenetic regulators like microRNA-210. The research aims to identify therapeutic targets to prevent brain injury related to hypoxia in neonates. The project is funded by the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), NIH.
