- This federal Project Grant award of $242,100.00 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 grant will support research by Mayo Clinic to investigate the role of sphingolipid metabolism in regulating regulatory T cell function and intestinal homeostasis, with the goal of developing new therapeutic strategies for inflammatory bowel disease. The project...
- This federal Project Grant award of $790,359, 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), supports research to develop a targeted probiotic yeast therapeutic for treating inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. The research project aims to design, characterize, and optimize a fibronectin-targeting, nanobody...
- This $2,842,245 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 elucidate the role of intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) injury pathways in governing anti-TNF therapy effectiveness for ulcerative colitis. The project aims to identify predictive biomarkers in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) patient biopsies that...
- This $859,704 Project Grant was awarded on July 2, 2025 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 grant supports research by Weill Medical College of Cornell University to investigate the role of the protein AGR2 in regulating host-microbe interactions and inflammatory processes in Crohn's disease. The research aims to enhance understanding of the cellular...
- This federal Project Grant award of $228,948 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 grant supports research at Weill Medical College of Cornell University to investigate the role of the neuropeptide adrenomedullin 2 (ADM2) in regulating intestinal inflammation and promoting tissue protection in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) such as ulcerative...
- This $164,188 federal Project Grant award 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 5-year grant supports training and research at the University of Washington to study the role of intestinal chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycans in inflammatory bowel disease. The research aims to determine how changes in the composition of these gut matrix...
- This federal Project Grant award of $3,340,009 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 elucidate the potential causal role of periodontitis (a prevalent oral infection) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The University of Maryland, Baltimore is the primary awardee and will leverage animal models to determine if oral bacteria from IBD patients and...
- This federal Project Grant award of $358,039 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), is supporting research by Nous Biosciences Inc. to evaluate a combination therapy of dolcanatide (a guanylate cyclase-C agonist) and atiprimod (a JAK-STAT inhibitor) for the treatment of murine colitis. The research aims to advance understanding of the pathogenesis of...
- This federal Project Grant award of $458,047.00 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 grant aims to understand how extracellular vesicles (EVs) from intestinal epithelial cells (enterocytes) mediate cell-to-cell communication and function as effectors of inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Specific objectives include identifying...
This $172,232 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 understand the causes of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) therapy failure. The principal investigator, Dr. Simon M. Gray, a gastroenterologist at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, will leverage a pre-clinical mouse model to study the immunologic and microbial mechanisms underlying IBD therapy failure. The research aims to develop strategies to maintain durable IBD remission by identifying triggering events and preventing therapy failure. The award, which runs from September 1, 2025 to June 30, 2030, will enable Dr. Gray to develop expertise in bioinformatic analysis of microbiome and host transcriptomic data as well as statistical modeling of complex datasets.
