The University of Washington, a prominent research institution, will lead this 2-year project to: 1) examine the mitochondrial mechanisms underlying the decreased metabolic response to muscle contraction in aged human 3D engineered...
- This $485,375 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will fund research at the University of Washington to investigate genomic alterations in skeletal muscle associated with aging. The key objectives are to: Explore if alternative splicing of mRNA results in quantitative differential isoform changes associated with aging, potentially leading to increased expression of non-functional proteins relevant for healthy muscle function. The researchers...
- This $1,031,595 project grant from the National Institute on Aging, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, supports research under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The awardee, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, will define the landscape and mechanisms of protein redox regulation during aging. Specifically, the Institute will systematically map cysteine oxidation networks in mouse tissues to determine their role in coordinating protein complex assemblies relevant to age-related...
- This Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), will support research to investigate the immunological and physiological mechanisms by which exercise can mitigate age-related skeletal muscle decline. The $190,374 award, effective September 1, 2025 through May 31, 2028, will enable researchers at Yale University to: Examine how mechanical stress-mediated activation of muscle stromal cells influences the inflammatory,...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a $216,460 project grant to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York, operating as Upstate Medical Center. The grant will support research to investigate the mechanism by which mitochondrial protein import stress can induce myokine signaling, and how this signaling may mediate fat loss and improve cardiac health during aging. The project aims to advance scientific...
- The University of Southern California received a $126,042 project grant from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866), to investigate the role of mitochondrial proline catabolism, specifically the ALH-6 gene, in muscle-mitochondrial dynamics and their impact on health and longevity. This research builds upon previous studies in C. elegans that have linked ALH-6 mutations to premature aging, impaired muscle function, and mitochondrial...
