(Bidmc) in Boston, MA. The grant, running from September 20, 2024 to July 31, 2029, aims to clinically evaluate mechanisms of resistance to the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride, a common drug used to manage benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and...
This 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), provides $511,084.00 to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc) to study the mechanisms of non-responsiveness to steroid 5α-reductase inhibitors (5ARI) in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The research aims to elucidate how the epigenetic silencing of the...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $489,509 Project Grant (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to the Magee-Womens Research Institute And Foundation to conduct research on steroid hormone pathways regulating benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with aging. The 2-year project aims to: Identify proteins and pathways involved in promoting smooth muscle relaxation and bladder voiding that are dysregulated in aged mouse prostate models and...
This is a Project Grant 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 $632,600 grant will support research to understand the role of antimicrobial peptides called defensins in immunity against urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by uropathogenic E. coli. The research aims to characterize how defensins synthesized by bladder epithelial cells contribute...

This Project Grant award, valued at $897,666, 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 grant supports research at Old Dominion University and its affiliated Old Dominion University Research Foundation to investigate the role of lipid accumulation and foam cells in benign prostate disease. The research aims to elucidate the underlying pathogenesis of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), with the goal of identifying novel biomarkers and developing innovative therapeutic strategies targeting lipid accumulation and foam cell formation. The 5-year project will utilize clinical specimens, mouse models, and multi-omic approaches to comprehensively explore the interplay between prostatic inflammation, lipid metabolism, and urinary dysfunction.
