This $328,000 federal Project Grant award is funded by the National Institute on Aging under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The grant supports the Alzheimer's Disease Organelle Proteome Task (ADOPT) pilot phase, which aims to quantitatively measure the organelle proteome to provide in-depth knowledge of organelle homeostasis and function in brain tissues during Alzheimer's disease progression. The interdisciplinary research team will utilize a genetic organelle tagging approach to...
This federal Project Grant award under the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) provides $913,225 to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital Inc. to conduct a comprehensive research project on Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias (ADRD). The project aims to systematically characterize the role of U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (U1 SNRNP) proteinopathy and its impact on RNA splicing dysfunction in the pathogenesis of AD/ADRD. The research will leverage...
This federal Project Grant award of $816,661 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports a research initiative by the Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to comprehensively map the impact of tau pathology on the proteome, which is expected to be mediated in part through disruptions in mRNA splicing. The research leverages AD mouse models and human iPSC tauopathy models to discover protein drivers of tauopathy and validate such drivers in...
This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research), provides $6,226,692 to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct research on the role of neuronal hyperexcitability and proteostasis (protein homeostasis) in the progression of Alzheimer's disease. The research aims to identify key early events in Alzheimer's disease pathology, particularly in the locus coeruleus and hippocampus regions of the brain, and...
This federal Project Grant award of $1,118,700.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to New York University School of Medicine will support research to elucidate the role of pathological tau protein in disrupting endosomal microautophagy (EMI), a critical protein degradation pathway affected in Alzheimer's disease. The research aims to determine which components of the EMI pathway are most vulnerable to tau pathology and whether restoring EMI function can...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will provide $784,596 to Northeastern University to conduct comprehensive and cell type-specific proteogenomic profiling of aberrant and mis-processed proteins in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and tauopathy models. The 5-year project aims to improve understanding of AD's causes, identify new therapeutic targets, and develop new tools for studying protein dysfunctions in AD. Key objectives include applying advanced proteomic and proteogenomic methods to profile disease-associated proteins across multiple brain regions and cell types from AD patient samples and tauopathy mouse models. This research will substantially expand knowledge of protein dysfunctions in AD and elucidate the cell type-specific factors underlying these protein abnormalities. The award will leverage Northeastern University's extensive capabilities in federal research and deliver innovative solutions to address critical knowledge gaps in understanding the molecular mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease.
