Project 2 is a NIH grant awarded to University of Colorado Denver to study mucosal bacterial strains and their role in the transition to clinical rheumatoid arthritis, aiming to identify key immunologic drivers and develop treatment strategies.
Description
This project aims to generate insights into immune recognition of mucosal bacteria and strategies for treatment and prevention of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It supports longitudinal studies of mucosal and microbial phenotypes prior to clinical onset of RA, focusing on immunologic drivers of autoimmunity and arthritis development.
