This federal Project Grant award of $1,600,000 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 at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (BIDMC) to develop a computational pharmacology approach for coordinating the regulation of multiple neuron types related to energy balance and satiety. The research aims to identify combinations of 2-10 ligands...
The $441,000 Project Grant 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) will support research by the CAL Poly Pomona Foundation Inc. to identify a dopamine circuit in the brain that mediates day eating and diet-induced obesity in mice. The 3-year project seeks to genetically and anatomically define a subpopulation of dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under CFDA 93.847 Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research, supports research to understand the neural populations in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) that mediate the suppression of food intake. The $502,233 award to the Regents of the University of Michigan aims to define the NTS neuron populations that control food intake and body weight, and distinguish...
This federal Project Grant award of $696,329.00 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 supports research at Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) to study sub-second catecholamine dynamics underlying food reward in humans. The goal is to provide a framework for translating and extending mechanistic studies of...
This Project Grant award of $427,000.00 from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research, supports research at Williams College on the role of the parasubthalamic nucleus (PSTN) in regulating feeding behavior. The research aims to study the PSTN's afferent connectivity, activity patterns, and necessity in mediating appetite suppression. Specific objectives include determining sources...
This $509,969 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 the anoctamin 4 (ANO4) ion channel in regulating feeding behavior, body weight, and glucose homeostasis. The grant holder, Baylor College of Medicine, will use gain- and loss-of-function models to determine the physiological relevance of...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) provides $223,446 to the University of Arizona to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying impaired satiation after Magel2 gene mutation. The research aims to determine how a specific population of neurons in the central nucleus of the amygdala are affected by the Magel2 mutation, which is associated with insatiable appetite in...
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 $176,500.00 to the University of Washington to investigate the links between hypothalamic microglia activation and perineuronal net (PNN) loss in the arcuate nucleus, and how these changes contribute to the pathogenesis of diet-induced obesity and glucose regulation. The...
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded a $136,449 project grant under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) to The Regents of the University of California, Berkeley. The award, which runs from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2026, will fund research to optimize the use of CRISPR-mediated gene downregulation to rapidly test whether genes linked to human obesity are required for the function of...
