This $1,031,595 project grant from the National Institute on Aging, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, supports research under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The awardee, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, will define the landscape and mechanisms of protein redox regulation during aging. Specifically, the Institute will systematically map cysteine oxidation networks in mouse tissues to determine their role in coordinating protein complex assemblies relevant to age-related...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $2,496,057.49 to the University of Arizona to investigate the role of hepatic glucagon receptor signaling in healthspan and aging. The key products and services to be delivered under this 5-year award include: Studying the effects of genetic and pharmacological manipulation to increase glucagon receptor signaling on normal aging, obesity-accelerated aging, and the slowed aging...
This Project Grant award of $387,006 from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under CFDA Program 93.866 - Aging Research supports research to understand how indoles derived from commensal gut bacteria can promote mobility and counteract sarcopenia (age-related muscle wasting) in aging animals. The research aims to determine the mechanisms by which indoles regulate muscle protein homeostasis, mitochondrial function, and other cellular pathways to maintain muscle mass and function during...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $123,309 to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to fund research on the role of fatty acid signaling in modulating gene expression and metabolic pathways during fasting and aging. The key objectives are to: 1) Identify the molecular mechanisms by which fatty acids induce specific changes in mRNA translation, including determining the regulatory motifs and upstream...
This Project Grant award of $395,796 from the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) supports research at Brown University to develop genetic, pharmacological, and dietary interventions that delay the onset and progression of age-related diseases. The key objectives are to: 1) Investigate the interconnectedness and hierarchical structure of the hallmarks of aging, such as loss of genomic integrity, activation of retrotransposons, and accumulation of lipid droplets; 2)...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio is focused on investigating the impact of leptin modulation on healthspan and lifespan. The award, totaling $1,339,916 and spanning from September 2024 to July 2029, will assess whether aging-associated hyperleptinemia accelerates cellular senescence and impairs healthspan and lifespan, evaluate the effects of reducing leptin on cellular...
This $101,925 Project Grant award was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866) to investigate the role of the propionate metabolism pathway in the aging process. The 2-year project aims to: Continue studying the impact of methylmalonic acid (MMA), a metabolite in the propionate pathway, on cell senescence and aging-associated pulmonary fibrosis. Characterize a novel function of propionyl-CoA (P-CoA), another pathway...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) in the amount of $425,958 supports research to understand the role of the hormone glucagon in the health benefits of calorie restriction. The study aims to: Measure serum levels of glucagon, GLP-1, and FGF21 in participants of the CALERIE trial (a long-term calorie restriction study in humans) at baseline, 12 months, and 24 months. This will assess changes in glucagon sensitivity during calorie...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), will support research by Tufts University School of Medicine to develop metabolomics clocks as a tool to explore the mechanisms of aging. The total funding amount is $592,507 and the award period runs from Sep 30, 2024 to Jun 30, 2029. The key objectives of the project are to: 1) develop sex- and tissue-specific metabolome clocks in the Drosophila model system that can...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $153,512.00 to the Regents of the University of Minnesota to conduct research on the relationship between lipid metabolism, mitochondrial stress, and cellular senescence. The key objectives are to: 1) use proteomics to characterize mitochondrial protein targets of carbonylation during obesity and aging, and 2) investigate the role of mitochondrial stress and signaling on adipose tissue...
