Research project funded by the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute to study IL-33 signaling and soluble ST2 in lung injury and repair, targeting ARDS mechanisms and biomarkers.

### Description

This project investigates the role of IL-33 signaling and its regulation by soluble ST2 in lung injury and repair, focusing on acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It aims to define the causal role of IL-33 and sST2 in ALI onset and resolution using murine models and longitudinal human data, with the goal of identifying biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
