- This federal Project Grant award of $222,758 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is funding research to map the functional roles of different neuron types in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and understand their contributions to pain perception in the brain. The primary awardee, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH), will use innovative optogenetic and chemogenetic techniques to selectively...
- This $2,249,392 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) will support research to validate senescent cells as a target for the treatment of chronic pain in aging. The project aims to rigorously characterize the role of senescent neurons and their senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in driving dorsal root ganglion hyperexcitability and persistent pain following...
- This $4,039,366 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), will support a research project titled "A Fully Humanized Functional Genomic Screen to Identify and Validate Pain Therapeutic Targets" under the NIH's Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The project will leverage innovative CRISPR-based screening and human dorsal root ganglion (DRG) transcriptomic data to...
- This $2,569,851 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), supports research to investigate how the PD-L1/PD-1 immune checkpoint pathway controls physiological and pathological pain, as well as opioid analgesia, through neuronal, immune, and glial mechanisms. The project aims to validate the actions of PD-L1 and the checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab on neuroinflammation and...
- This $2,370,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), aims to develop advanced human pluripotent stem cell (HPSC) tools to create comprehensive, region-specific models for studying pain circuitry. The award to Trustees of Tufts College (Tufts University) supports three main objectives: 1) Developing scalable methods to generate region-specific sensory neurons and...
- The University of New Mexico was awarded a $170,100 Project Grant from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (CFDA 93.279 - Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs) to investigate the role of the protein PRR14 in oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy, a common and debilitating side effect of chemotherapy. The research aims to characterize the expression and localization of PRR14 in human dorsal root ganglia neurons and determine the effects of PRR14 on sensory neuron...
- This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), is focused on developing novel methods for selectively stimulating nociceptors (pain receptors) and measuring the brain's nociceptive-specific response in both healthy individuals and those with the chronic pain condition fibromyalgia. The $2,314,276 award to Emory University will fund the creation of a new...
- This federal Project Grant award of $597,999.00 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, supports research to investigate the neuronal populations and central sensitization mechanisms underlying mechanical allodynia (a condition where normally innocuous touch becomes painful after injury) in the dorsal horn. The research aims to identify the excitatory...
- This $764,659 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program supports research to investigate the mechanisms underlying neuropathic spontaneous pain. The key objectives are to characterize the role of local vascular movement in triggering neuropathic spontaneous pain, determine how mechanoreceptors in sensory neurons contribute...
- This Project Grant award for $668,131 was provided by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The purpose of the award is to conduct research on chronic neuropathic pain (CNP) and understand how alterations in dopamine function and reward processing may contribute to the affective symptoms of CNP. The research aims to quantify changes in dopamine release in the nucleus...
