Research project funded by NIH to study the role of Treg-derived Mmp12 in lung injury resolution, aiming to identify therapeutic strategies for ARDS.
Description
This project aims to understand the role of regulatory T cell (Treg) derived Mmp12 in the resolution of lung injury, particularly in ARDS. The research involves studying Treg mechanisms, identifying substrates of Mmp12, and assessing its effects on inflammation and repair during lung injury induced by LPS or influenza.
