Research Grants
- Vascular Epigenome Dynamics in African-American HypertensivesGARY HUGH GIBBONS; Fiscal Year: 2010..This project will test the hypothesis that the expression of genes that promote or protect individuals from hypertension is modulated by epigenetic marks or codes that are responsive to changes in dietary nutrients. ..
- The Vascular Transcriptome in Hypertensive RemodelingGary Gibbons; Fiscal Year: 2006..Define the mediator role of PPAR-gamma as a "vasculo-protective" determinant of the vascular transcriptome during hypertension-induced target organ damage. ..
- MSM Training Program in Cardiovascular SciencesGary Gibbons; Fiscal Year: 2007..End of Abstract) ..

- Vascular Epigenome Dynamics in African-American HypertensivesGary Gibbons; Fiscal Year: 2009..This project will test the hypothesis that the expression of genes that promote or protect individuals from hypertension is modulated by epigenetic marks or codes that are responsive to changes in dietary nutrients. ..
- Notch3 Signaling as a Determinant of Vascular Cell FateGary Gibbons; Fiscal Year: 2005..Taken together, these findings will provide fundamental insight into transcriptional programs and molecular cell fate determinants of arteriopathic remodeling seen in hypertension and the genetic disorder, CADASIL. ..
- ANGIOTENSIN AND CELLULAR MEDIATORS OF VASCULAR APOPTOSISGary Gibbons; Fiscal Year: 2001..These studies will provide important new insights into the molecular mechanisms governing the cell suicide program in VSMC and the potential role of apoptosis in the pathogenesis of vascular diseases. ..
