This Project Grant award of $1,610,888.00 from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) supports research to define the mechanisms by which CD4+ T cells drive autoimmunity in type 1 diabetes (T1D). The research aims to characterize the cross-reactivity between microbial and self-antigens recognized by T cells in T1D patients, and to identify biomarkers in peripheral...
This $107,948 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) supports research by Case Western Reserve University investigating the role of microRNA-146a (miR-146a) in regulating autoimmunity in type 1 diabetes. The research aims to (1) elucidate how miR-146a deficiency affects T cell autoreactivity and T regulatory cell function in a mouse...

This federal Project Grant award, valued at $575,394.00 and funded by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), supports a multi-ancestry genetic analysis of Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and related conditions. The project aims to develop a multi-ancestry T1D polygenic risk score to better predict risk across diverse populations, as well as to identify genetic subtypes of T1D...
This is a federal Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847). The $1,232,846 award to the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, CA will fund research to build a vascularized micro-organ platform to study the mechanisms of immune attack and beta cell death in type 1 diabetes. The key objectives are to develop induced pluripotent stem...

This federal Project Grant award, with ID R01DK142414, was provided by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847). The $561,893 award aims to systematically evaluate the molecular cascade involving Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) effector genes, the transcription factors RFX3 and RFX6, and T2D-associated genetic variants in human islet cell generation, survival, and function under...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), will provide $352,618 to the Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines for a 5-year period from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2029. The research aims to determine if cytokine-stressed beta cells contribute to the degradation of the peri-islet extracellular matrix (ECM) in the early stages of type 1...

This federal Project Grant award of $530,890 from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) supports research to investigate the influence of MHC-II polymorphisms on autoimmune T cell repertoire development and function related to type 1 diabetes (T1D). The research aims to identify tissue- and disease-specific processes underlying T1D susceptibility by comparing autoimmune T cell development and function in mouse models expressing T1D-associated MHC-II alleles versus disease-protected heterozygous counterparts. The study will provide insights into the fine-tuning of T cell repertoires by thymic selection events and differentiation pathways that discriminate pathogenic T cell responses, with the goal of informing rational approaches for the design of therapeutics to manipulate immune responses for the treatment of T1D and other autoimmune diseases. The award is held by the University of Massachusetts Medical School and runs from July 2024 through June 2029.
