- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to the University of Massachusetts Medical School is focused on understanding how the gut microbiome influences neurodegeneration and protects against Alzheimer's disease. The $647,979 award, effective September 30, 2024 through August 31, 2025, will leverage the C. elegans model system to: Determine how bacterial production of vitamin B12 protects against neurodegeneration pathways. Examine...
- This Project Grant award of $429,000.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to the University of Colorado-Denver aims to investigate the relationship between gut microbiota dynamics, exercise, and physical function among older adults with HIV. The research project will examine how exercise-induced changes in the gut microbiome may contribute to improvements in physical function for this population, which has been observed to experience impairments in physical...
- This $484,314 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Integrative Organismal Systems under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The funding will support research at Christopher Newport University to investigate the "microbiota-gut-brain axis" and the impact of intestinal barrier dysfunction on aging and neurodegeneration. Key objectives include gaining insights into the cellular and molecular changes associated with an aging gut, how...
- 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 federal Project Grant award of $3,251,767.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to Emory University supports research to understand how indoles from commensal gut bacteria can promote mobility and healthspan in aging animals, including mice, fruit flies, and nematodes. The research aims to elucidate the mechanisms by which indoles, acting through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor, can limit sarcopenia and preserve muscle function and mitochondrial health...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $696,896 to the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston to conduct research on the impact of the gut microbiome on B cell-mediated neuroinflammation in cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). The research aims to investigate three key hypotheses: (1) CAA induces B cell-driven inflammation in the brain; (2) CAA-induced gut dysbiosis can promote B cell-mediated neuroinflammation...
- This National Institute on Aging (NIA) Project Grant award to Emory University, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), provides $430,375 to determine whether the microbiome metabolite valerobetaine (VB) promotes a mitochondrial aging phenotype in old mice and to test whether VB antagonizes the beneficial effects of carnitine (acetylcarnitine) on mitochondrial aging. The two-year project, running from September 2023 to September 2025, will conduct experimental studies in young and old...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) provides $124,794 to Colorado State University (CSU) to investigate the role of gut microbiome dysbiosis and sustained inflammation in the progression of osteoarthritis (OA). The principal investigator, a board-certified veterinary surgeon, will work with a multi-disciplinary team of experts at CSU and the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus to: 1) identify...
- This federal Project Grant award of $856,580 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports a 5-year research project to investigate the relationship between the gut microbiome and Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL) cohort. The project aims to elucidate the microbial origins of AD/ADRD in the Latino population, which has double the risk of AD/ADRD compared to non-Latino whites. Key...
- This Project Grant award of $458,907 from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research Program (CFDA 93.846) aims to investigate the use of the gut microbiome to treat skeletal muscle atrophy. The research will focus on determining if cecal microbial transplant from exercise-trained mice can attenuate muscle atrophy in mice undergoing hind limb immobilization. Metagenomic and metabolomic analyses...
