The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) awarded a $120,226 Project Grant under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) to Fundacao De Apoio A Pesquisa E A Extensao (Fapex), a non-profit research organization based in Brazil. This 5-year grant, effective from August 2024 to July 2029, supports research investigating the relationship between adipose tissue, inflammation, and the clinical outcomes of cutaneous leishmaniasis in obese patients. The key objectives are to characterize the inflammatory response in adipose tissue, determine the role of adipokines in the inflammation, and explore whether lipid profiles associated with tissue healing can reprogram macrophages to a non-inflammatory, tissue repair phenotype. This research aims to provide insights into how adipose tissue and lipid metabolism influence the severity and therapeutic response of cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania braziliensis infection.
