North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University received a $765,558 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), effective February 4, 2026, with completion targeted for November 30, 2030. The award supports research to identify and validate biomarkers for whole grain intake and their association with cardiometabolic health outcomes. The project addresses a critical gap in nutrition research by developing objective biomarkers of whole grain intake to replace self-reported dietary assessments, which are subject to significant measurement error. The research will identify molecular signatures of barley, rice, and corn intake through pharmacokinetic feeding studies and targeted metabolomics approaches, building upon previously identified biomarkers for wheat and oat. The deliverables include validated biomarkers of whole grain consumption integrated with inter-individual metabolic variations, biomarker associations with cardiometabolic disease risk, and research findings that advance understanding of how whole grain phytochemicals and their metabolites relate to disease prevention—ultimately providing more objective measures than traditional dietary assessment methods for epidemiological studies and clinical applications.Federal Grant Award Summary
