Project Grant R01DK141852
- This $847,746 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847) supports research by the Beckman Research Institute of the City of Hope to investigate the role of the UPR transducer XBP1 in pancreatic beta cell survival and function under metabolic stress. The research aims to identify the "tilting point" of the unfolded protein response (UPR) under metabolic stress and explore its potential for therapeutic interventions for...
- This federal Project Grant award of $444,867.00 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), aims to investigate the role of the UPR transducer XBP1 in pancreatic beta cell survival and function under metabolic stress. The research will use a novel mouse model to elucidate the pathological role of XBP1s in beta cell integrity under metabolic stress, in order to...
- This federal Project Grant award of $641,794 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 mechanisms that protect beta-cells from DNA damage during periods of growth and adaptation, in order to maintain beta-cell homeostasis and prevent the loss of functional beta-cells, a key factor in the development of type 1 and type 2...
- This $3,140,632 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 program) aims to elucidate the mechanisms underlying human endocrine lineage commitment and harness this knowledge to improve strategies for beta cell replacement in diabetes treatment. The 4-year project, awarded to the Regents of the University of California, San Francisco, seeks to enhance the...
- This federal Project Grant award of $568,075.00 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 award to Brigham Young University aims to determine the role of the transcription factor NR4A1 in the pathways that expand functional beta cell mass, which is critical for treating type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The research seeks to understand how NR4A1 is...
- This $146,829 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), aims to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which the bacterial protein BEFA (beta-cell expansion factor A) induces the proliferation and metabolic maturation of pancreatic beta cells. The research, conducted at the University of Oregon, utilizes single-cell imaging, genetic...
- This federal Project Grant award of $1,620,238 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 will fund a research project at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) to detect regulatory variants and elements at type 2 diabetes genetic association signals across multiple tissues, including pancreatic islets, adipose, skeletal...
- This federal Project Grant award of $2,325,005 from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research) will support research at Mayo Clinic to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the imbalance between autophagy and extracellular vesicle secretion pathways in pancreatic beta cells under diabetogenic stress conditions. The research aims to improve understanding of type 2 diabetes pathogenesis...
- This Project Grant award, with $1,331,148 in funding 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 mechanisms of islet cell compensation for beta-cell mass deficiency in type 2 diabetes. The research aims to determine the signaling pathways through which increased glucagon secretion from pancreatic alpha-cells helps preserve...
- This Project Grant award of $787,367 from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the CFDA 93.847 Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program, will support a multidisciplinary research project to map the gene regulatory architecture of pancreatic islet-specific cell types and their role in diabetes. The primary objectives are to: 1) Create a comprehensive map of islet cell types by integrating single-cell gene expression and...
This $2,782,476 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847) supports research to determine the molecular mechanisms underlying pancreatic beta cell response to metabolic stress, a key factor in the development of type 2 diabetes. The 4-year project aims to leverage in vitro human beta cell models, single-cell transcriptomic analyses, and targeted drug screening to delineate the dynamic chromatin and transcriptomic changes that mediate the transition from adaptive to maladaptive beta cell responses to overnutrition. The research will also seek to establish causal links between type 2 diabetes genetic variants and beta cell function. The award was made to Florida State University, which has extensive expertise in federal grant-funded research across diverse scientific domains.
