This $700,619 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), supports research to study and control rhythmic nephron formation for kidney replacement tissues. The primary awardee, The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, aims to define the spatiotemporal coordination of cell-cell interactions that drive the rhythmic...
This $148,476 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), supports research to investigate methods for long-term, kidney-specific depletion of resident macrophages as a potential therapeutic approach for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The research aims to map the kinetics and mechanism of kidney resident macrophage...
This Project Grant award, with a total funding of $820,119, was granted by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847). The overarching goal of the research is to better understand the mechanisms that ensure podocyte homeostasis and the pathogenic mechanisms that promote podocyte foot process effacement, a hallmark of proteinuric glomerular diseases. The research seeks to...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), will provide $194,616 to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on the role of the G-protein coupled receptor GPR39 in kidney physiology. The research aims to uncover the mechanisms by which GPR39 activation influences water handling and reabsorption in the kidney, as well as the...
The University of Delaware was awarded a Project Grant of $238,184 from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), a part of the National Institutes of Health (CFDA 93.847 Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program), with a project period from Sep 6, 2024 to Aug 31, 2026.

This Project Grant award, with a total funding amount of $587,212, was awarded by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847). The award will support research to investigate the role of the protein CDKN1A (p21) in the development and progression of polycystic kidney disease (PKD). The key objectives are to determine how p21 expression is regulated in PKD models, examine...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $155,274.00 and provided by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under CFDA Program 93.847 "Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research", aims to identify the neural and vascular mechanisms contributing to accelerated deterioration of kidney function in older adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The key objectives of this research project are to: 1) Determine if older CKD...
This Project Grant award of $254,990 was provided by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847). The award supports research to understand kidney endothelial maturity and mesenchymal transition in vascularized human kidney organoids. The primary objectives are to: 1) Determine if kidney organoid co-culture enables the induction of kidney-specific endothelial...
This Project Grant award, valued at $421,067.00, was provided by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The award will fund a research project at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) to investigate the effects of pregestational diabetes on the development of kidney organoids, a model system for studying human kidney development. The key objectives of the...
This $117,000 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), aims to use a systems biology approach to identify gene regulatory networks related to hypoxia inducible factor-1A (HIF1A) in the kidney cortex and medulla. The research project, led by the Regents of the University of Michigan, seeks to: 1) validate predicted transcription factor...

This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), provides $168,886 to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center to conduct research focused on elucidating the role of NAD+ and PARP1 in nephron endowment and development. The key research aims include studying how exogenous NAD+ affects nephron progenitor cell differentiation, assessing how cellular compartmentalization of NAD+ influences nephron progenitor cell differentiation, and elucidating if and how PARP1 mediates the effect of NAD+ on nephrogenesis. This five-year project, running from May 1, 2025 to January 31, 2030, seeks to provide novel insights into the nutritional aspects of maternal-fetal interactions that influence renal development and may suggest therapeutic targets for developmental nephron augmentation.
