- This federal Project Grant award of $115,307 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) will fund a study on the effects of a ketogenic diet on alcohol intoxication. The key objectives are to use magnetic resonance spectroscopy to measure brain glutamate and GABA levels, and assess subjective and objective indices of alcohol intoxication in healthy individuals and non-treatment-seeking individuals with alcohol use...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) provides $3,168,729 to New York University to conduct a collaborative research project titled "A Translational Approach for Novel Precision Medicine Models." The project aims to identify novel molecular targets and mechanisms of treatment responses in alcohol use disorder (AUD) based on the role of mitochondrial metabolism and epigenetic...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $105,132 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the University of Kentucky Research Foundation. The grant, titled "Uncovering the Functional and Mechanistic Dysregulation of Monocytes After Abstinence and Post-Abstinence Drinking," will leverage a rhesus macaque model to investigate the persistent functional, transcriptional, and epigenetic changes in peripheral monocytes induced by...
- This federal Cooperative Agreement award of $1,001,425.00 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program, aims to develop a novel and functionally selective 5-HT2C receptor agonist for treating Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). The project's goal is to confirm and extend the drug candidacy of KB128, a proprietary compound developed by Kuleon LLC, as a potential therapeutic medication for AUD. The award will...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), awarded a $901,666 Project Grant to Research Triangle Institute (RTI International) to develop small molecule modulators of the RXFP3 receptor as potential therapeutic agents for alcohol use disorder (AUD). The project aims to further optimize and evaluate the effectiveness of the RXFP3 negative allosteric modulators (NAMs) RLX-33 and RLX-79 in animal models of alcohol...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273), awarded a $390,454 Project Grant to Envisbio LLC to develop novel therapeutic aptamers targeting phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B) for the treatment of alcohol use disorder (AUD). The project aims to identify and characterize PDE4B-specific aptamers that can modulate PDE4B activity, with the goal of advancing these modulators into in vivo testing and eventual human clinical trials for...
- This Project Grant award was provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), which falls under the federal Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273). The $692,723 award will support a double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to test whether the drug suvorexant can be used as a novel therapeutic for alcohol use disorder (AUD) and stress-related drinking. The 5-year project, running from September 2025 through August 2030, will be conducted by researchers at The...
- This federal Project Grant award of $337,500.00, awarded on September 5, 2025 by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), supports a research project titled "Kappa Opioid Receptor Modulation of BLA Inputs to the BNST and Stress-Escalated Drinking" under the NIAAA's Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273). The project aims to investigate the neural mechanisms by which social stress leads to increased alcohol consumption, with a focus on the role of the kappa...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $399,076 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis, TN. The purpose of this grant is to develop a rapid and reliable platform for evaluating and repurposing FDA-approved drugs to target chronic alcohol tolerance and dependence associated with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). The project will leverage the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans as an...
- This federal Project Grant award of $396,643 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) supports research to elucidate the mechanisms underlying stress-potentiated ethanol drinking. The project aims to investigate the role of the histone methyltransferase G9a and its effects on dynorphin-positive neurons in the nucleus accumbens to regulate this behavior. Key objectives include testing the hypothesis that G9a's effects on...
