This $194,380 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research) aims to study the role of the protein LIM-nebulette in helping podocytes (kidney cells) adapt to mechanical stress, such as that caused by severe hypertension. The grantee, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, will use a novel mechanical stretch platform and high-content image analysis to understand how...
This $400,000 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 to understand the earliest events in podocyte injury in collagen IV nephropathies. The goal is to investigate how processing of mutant collagen IV proteins injures podocytes at early stages, leading to chronic kidney disease and renal failure. The research uses...
The federal Project Grant award, totaling $1,504,974, 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 establish that at least a subset of minimal change disease (MCD) and primary focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) are mediated by an organ-specific, antibody-driven autoimmune disease that causes acquired podocyte injury. Key...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research) supports research to elucidate the role of cyclin G-associated kinase (GAK) as a regulator of podocyte autophagy. The $102,438 award, granted on June 17, 2025, will fund a study using a genetically engineered mouse model to investigate cellular mechanisms involved in podocyte maintenance. The research aims to...
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded a $223,918 Project Grant under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) to the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. The purpose of this 20-month grant, awarded on September 28, 2024, is to study niche filling as a means to achieve long-term, kidney-specific depletion of resident macrophages in order to slow the progression of autosomal dominant polycystic...
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), provides $434,950 to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York to develop a microfluidic device that models the complex structure and selective filtration function of the kidney's glomerulus and Bowman's capsule. This "Glomerular-Bowman's Capsule System on a Chip" will...
This $675,480 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) supports research to develop a novel therapeutic compound for treating chronic kidney disease (CKD). The awardee, Fibrotherapeutics Inc., is conducting preclinical studies to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and therapeutic index of a modified, water-soluble, orally-active peptide derived...
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded a $436,277 Project Grant under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) to the University of Delaware. The grant titled "NEPHROGENESIS ON A CHIP: AN SIMPLE MODULAR PLATFORM TO SPATIALLY PATTERN EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX, STROMAL CELLS, AND SOLUBLE FACTORS" aims to develop an easy-to-use 3D in vitro model of the developing nephron that allows spatial patterning...
The federal Project Grant award R01DK140070, in the amount of $700,619, was provided by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research (CFDA 93.847) program. The goal of this 4-year award is to study and control rhythmic nephron induction for kidney replacement tissues. The research aims to gain temporal control over rhythmic nephron formation in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived kidney...
This $830,500 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847 Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research) supports research by Georgetown University to investigate the role of glycosphingolipids in kidney disease associated with diabetes and obesity. The research aims to determine if inhibiting glucosylceramide synthesis can prevent kidney disease progression, improve mitochondrial function, and reduce...
