This $541,647 Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (NCI), under the Cancer Biology Research (CFDA 93.396) program, supports a research project investigating the role of the epigenetic regulator ENL in kidney development and Wilms tumor, the most common kidney cancer in children. The primary awardee, The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, will utilize innovative mouse models, patient-derived organoids, and single-cell genomics to determine the biological functions of ENL and its cancer-associated mutations in kidney development and disease pathogenesis. The goal is to elucidate the mechanisms by which disruptions to ENL activity can lead to developmental disorders and Wilms tumor, with the potential to inform new therapeutic strategies. This research project will run from May 1, 2025 to April 30, 2030.
