This $625,060 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) will fund research to elucidate the roles of distinct spinal cord cell types in mediating interstitial cystitis (IC)/bladder pain syndrome (BPS). The research, conducted by The Washington University in St. Louis, will use chemogenetics and optogenetics approaches to determine the...
This Project Grant award of $690,451 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 at the University of Pittsburgh to investigate the role of fibroblasts in bladder mucosal function. The research aims to define the molecular mechanisms that allow specialized suburothelial fibroblasts to reform the bladder mucosa into rugae (folds) when the bladder...
This Project Grant award of $1,461,766.00 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) will fund research on the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying visceral pain and cross-organ sensitization. The research will focus on understanding the role of MRGPRB2+ mast cell-TRPV1+ nociceptor clusters in bladder pain and bladder-colon cross-sensitization. Key...
This $337,284 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) will support the development of a novel "Precision-Cut Bladder Slice" (PCBS) technology at Boston Children's Hospital. The goal is to enable quantitative assessment of bladder smooth muscle contraction, relaxation, and stiffness in both healthy murine and human tissues, while...
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 $708,138 to support the development of a biomechanocompatible small molecule-releasing scaffold for bladder augmentation. The goal is to create an alternative to conventional surgical approaches that use detubularized bowel tissue, which can have significant complications. The...
This federal Project Grant award of $726,140.00 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 aims to elucidate the neural circuits and cellular mechanisms underlying visceral pain processing in the spinal cord and brainstem, with the goal of advancing understanding and treatment of visceral pain conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome,...
This $176,201 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research) supports research at the University of California, Irvine to investigate urethral dysfunction and urinary incontinence in women. The key objectives are to (1) identify molecular changes in aging female urethral tissue, and (2) explore the role of the fibrogenic factor CTGF in age-related urethral muscle...
This federal Project Grant award for $153,540 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 award supports research at Columbia University to perform human genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to identify genetic risk variants associated with urinary tract infections (UTIs). The research aims to discover novel genes and cell types involved in immune...
This Project Grant award of $117,000.00 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 investigate the role of substance P-mediated activation of mast cells in driving visceral hypersensitivity and barrier dysfunction in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The objective is to delineate the underlying mechanisms of bidirectional crosstalk between sensory...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $400,000.00 in funding to Baylor College of Medicine to conduct research on the cellular and molecular mechanisms that govern bladder aging. The key objectives are to: Define the role of ribosomal and translational quality control machinery in maintaining bladder homeostasis and response to urinary tract infections in young, aged, and genetically-modified mouse models. This includes using a 3D...
