- This federal Project Grant award of $813,511 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 the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Inc. (DFCI) to investigate the structural basis and functional consequences of thermogenic mitochondrial respiratory complexes assembly in the context of obesity and type 2 diabetes. The research aims to...
- This $2,971,227 federal Project Grant, awarded on September 4, 2025 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 investigate the role of fatty acids in regulating cellular metabolism and protein synthesis in the context of fasting, inflammation, and metabolic diseases. The research aims to uncover novel signaling pathways through which fatty...
- This federal Project Grant award of $737,034.00 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 goal of this 5-year research project, with a start date of September 1, 2025, is to identify new regulatory inputs that control the biosynthesis of coenzyme A (CoA) in response to the metabolic state of cells and tissues, especially the kidney and liver. The...
- This federal Project Grant award of $672,737 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 to investigate the role of mitochondria in dysregulated insulin secretion in obesity, which can lead to the development of type 2 diabetes. Specifically, the research aims to characterize the molecular determinants of fatty acid-induced...
- This federal Project Grant award of $464,985, 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), supports research on extracellular vesicles released by adipocytes (fat cells) and their potential role in cardiometabolic disease. The research, conducted by The Washington University, aims to investigate how these adipocyte-derived extracellular vesicles, including...
- This federal Project Grant award of $2,651,504.00 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 identify the mechanisms by which impaired long-chain fatty acid oxidation, due to liver-specific deletion of the CPT1A enzyme, leads to sexually dimorphic responses of microvesicular steatosis and reductions in circulating polyunsaturated...
- The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded a $2,999,512 Project Grant under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, doing business as Southwestern Medical School. This 4-year award, starting on September 1, 2025, will support research to investigate the regulation of mitochondrial health in mammalian livers, with a focus on understanding the...
- This federal Project Grant award of $803,748 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 is funding research to investigate the modulation of insulin signaling in adipocytes (fat cells) and how improved adipocyte insulin sensitivity can contribute to positive metabolic outcomes. The research team at The University of Texas Southwestern Medical...
- This $233,250 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 understand how macrophage branched chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism contributes to obesity-related metabolic dysfunction. The project, led by The Washington University, will investigate the role of the enzyme protein phosphatase 1K (PPM1K) in regulating macrophage BCAA metabolism and...
This $2,638,760.00 Project Grant award 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 research aims to investigate a novel mechanism involving the metabolite rhodoquinone (RQ) and its potential role in improving mitochondrial function and mitigating metabolic diseases caused by obesity. Specifically, the project will elucidate how the RQ/fumarate electron transport chain pathway drives lipid accumulation during adipogenesis, and evaluate the therapeutic potential of RQ in improving lipid handling and reducing fatty liver in diet-induced obesity. The award to the University of Massachusetts Medical School, located in Worcester, MA, runs from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2029.
