NIH grant awarded to University of Virginia to study the regulation of cPLA2α in wound healing using lipidomics and genetic models, aiming to improve understanding and treatment of non-healing wounds.
Description
This NIH-funded project aims to elucidate the regulation of cPLA2α in wound healing, focusing on lipid mediators and aging-related impairments. The project involves advanced lipidomics, genetic mouse models, and molecular biology techniques to identify biomarkers and therapeutic targets for non-healing wounds.
