Memphis, Tenn. (March 10, 2021) - The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute recently awarded Jonathan H. Jaggar, PhD, Maury Bronstein Endowed Professor in the Department of Physiology at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center (UTHSC), a $2.3 million grant for his study titled PKD proteins in endothelial cells. The proposal s goal is to provide a new understanding of how endothelial cells regulate blood pressure.
Blood vessels provide all of our organs with oxygen and nutrients and determine blood pressure in the body. Endothelial cells, which line the inside of all blood vessels, can cause blood vessels to relax or contract, thus controlling the body s blood pressure. Endothelial cells stop working properly during vascular diseases such as stroke and high blood pressure (hypertension), but how this happens is not fully understood. Dr. Jaggar s project is focused on identifying the functions of two proteins in endothelial cells called PKD1 and PKD2. H
