Grant Description

This FOA encourages grant applications that propose to develop, validate, and standardize assays to measure HDL function and biomarkers for HDL function and to identify novel genes, pathways, and potential HDL targets in the relationship to HDL function. Innovative methods to determine HDL functional properties such as in vivo reverse cholesterol transport (RCT), anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antithrombotic activities, and biomarkers for HDL function are encouraged. Projects that will explore HDL functional pathways, new genes and therapeutics related to HDL function are also encouraged.
