NIH grant awarded to Medical College of Wisconsin to study Tip60's role in cardiac regeneration and develop inhibitors to improve heart repair after heart attacks.
Description
This NIH grant supports research on the molecular mechanisms regulating cardiac regeneration, focusing on Tip60 isoforms and developing targeted therapeutics. The project aims to determine how the protein Tip60 blocks heart regeneration and develop drugs that inhibit Tip60 to restore the heart's natural ability to repair itself, potentially leading to new treatments for heart attack recovery.
