The Seattle Institute For Biomedical And Clinical Research (SIBCR) received a $474,762 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), effective May 1, 2026, with a completion date of March 31, 2031. This research initiative investigates the interacting effects of blast trauma and chronic alcohol use on cognitive aging and Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD), with a focus on the glymphatic system—the brain's waste clearance mechanism—as a potential therapeutic target. The project utilizes preclinical rodent models to examine how prior blast exposure increases susceptibility to alcohol's neurotoxic effects and to identify potential biomarkers and therapeutic interventions for mitigating age-related cognitive decline in military personnel, veterans, and civilian populations exposed to traumatic injury. The research deliverables center on translational science designed to clarify the pathogenic mechanisms underlying combined trauma-alcohol exposure and to advance clinical treatment options for this understudied population. By examining glymphatic function impairment as a mechanistic link between blast trauma, alcohol use, and neurodegenerative outcomes, SIBCR will generate fundamental knowledge applicable to prevention and treatment strategy development for alcohol-related cognitive disorders in aging populations.Federal Grant Award Summary
