This $517,379 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program, supports research to investigate the role of KDM5 demethylases in alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) development and resolution. The project aims to determine how these epigenetic regulators in hepatocytes mediate cellular crosstalk that promotes ALD progression and fibrosis, as well as define the mechanisms by...
This $238,445 Project Grant award was provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program. The award supports research to elucidate the mechanism and significance of translatome (mRNA translation) alteration as a critical pathophysiology of alcoholic fatty liver (AFL) disease. The research aims to determine the molecular mechanism of dysregulated translatome in terminally differentiated human...
The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $438,375 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to establish a human liver-on-a-chip model for studying alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD). The 2-year project, starting September 2023, aims to investigate the roles of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and acetaldehyde metabolism in regulating ethanol-induced liver damage as well as the contribution of fibrotic...
This $374,598 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program, supports research to investigate the impact of alcohol consumption on RNA modifications and their potential role in the development and progression of alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD). The key objectives of this 2-year project are to: 1) Map the site-specific chemical modifications on different types of RNAs isolated...
This $119,600 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program, aims to identify and understand the mechanisms by which aging and alcohol consumption cooperatively contribute to the overall decline in liver function and the subsequent development of alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD). The award recipient, the University of Kansas Medical Center Research Institute, Inc. (KUMCRI),...
This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), will support research into the mechanisms behind HIV-induced liver fibrosis and the role of alcohol use disorders. The $220,656 award, effective from August 8, 2024 to July 31, 2026, will enable the research team at the University of Nebraska Medical Center to investigate how alcohol metabolism affects the sorting of HIV proteins into...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) provides funding of $386,196 to the University of Kansas Medical Center Research Institute, Inc. to conduct research on the mechanisms of mitochondrial dynamics, quality control, and mitochondrial DNA-mediated inflammation in alcohol-associated liver disease. The project aims to understand how chronically accumulated megamitochondria in the...
The federal Project Grant award F31AA031426, in the amount of $106,642.00, was provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program. The award aims to elucidate the mechanisms by which alcohol exposure increases the expression of Wnt ligands, leading to canonical β-catenin activation and hepatic stellate cell transdifferentiation, to promote the early pathogenesis of liver fibrosis in alcohol-related...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program will fund research to identify the mechanisms responsible for the suppression of fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) by the interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) pathway in the context of alcohol consumption and alcohol-associated liver disease. The $537,587 award will support a 5-year research project focused on understanding how...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) will fund a research project to study alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) and its interaction with the rs738409 variant in the PNPLA3 gene using a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived liver culture model. The $523,477 award, spanning from September 2024 to June 2029, will enable the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of...

This $477,626 federal project grant, awarded on May 2, 2025 by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), supports research to investigate the role of TET1 and sex differences in alcohol-associated liver tumorigenesis. The primary objectives are to: 1) Determine the role of female sex and TET1 in alcohol-associated liver fibrosis; 2) Investigate the role of TET1 and female sex hormones in alcohol-associated hepatocellular carcinoma; and 3) Decipher the mechanisms by which estrogen-mediated TET1 downregulation alters hepatic stellate cell changes involved in alcohol-associated liver disease and liver cancer. This five-year research project, led by Tulane University, aims to advance understanding of sex-specific differences in alcohol's effects on the liver and identify TET1 as a potential preventive target for alcohol-related liver disease and cancer.
