This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under CFDA Program 93.855 Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research, provides $242,250 to The Methodist Hospital Research Institute (HMRI) to evaluate the translational potential of two novel strategies, salivabactin and an engineered probiotic, to treat or prevent Group B Streptococcus (GBS) infections in preclinical mouse models. The goal is to fully assess the efficacy of these therapeutic and...
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $1,376,850 Project Grant (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) to the University of Colorado-Denver on August 9, 2024. The goal of this 5-year project is to compare the gut microbiome, immune responses, and respiratory microbiome of HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) and HIV-unexposed (HU) infants, and test dietary interventions to modulate the HEU gut microbiome and immune function. The...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) provides $533,750.00 to the University of Florida to study the role of macrophages in the increased HIV risk associated with bacterial vaginosis (BV). The research aims to determine how a non-optimal vaginal microbiome affects the activation and "training" of macrophages towards an HIV-permissive phenotype. This will be...
This Project Grant award, valued at $349,759, was provided by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The award aims to develop a platform encapsulation technology to stabilize and protect therapeutic microbial strains, including Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001 and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HN019, for use in powdered infant formula. The goal is to create a probiotic...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), provides $296,351 to Brooklyn Innoseq Inc. (doing business as Mamome) to develop and validate a non-invasive, microbiome-based diagnostic tool for the early detection of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The project aims to prospectively enroll 250 pregnant women, collect stool samples during the first...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), is focused on elucidating the role of Akkermansia muciniphila in Group B Streptococcal (GBS) vaginal colonization and ascending infection. The $148,568 award will support research to investigate the specific mechanisms by which A. muciniphila promotes GBS interaction with human vaginal epithelial cells, potentially...
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $481,250 Project Grant under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) to Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). The grant, awarded on September 1, 2024, will support research to investigate the mechanisms of neuroinflammation and perinatal brain injury associated with intrauterine infection by the bacteria Ureaplasma parvum. Specifically, the project aims to assess...
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $451,000 Project Grant (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to investigate the therapeutic potential of maternal breast milk components for preterm white matter injury (WMI). The key objectives are to: 1) Perform high-throughput screening of breast milk components to identify pro-myelinating compounds, and 2) Test...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), supports a comparative study investigating the mechanistic effects of human milk feeding on neurodevelopment in preterm infants. The $239,399 award to the Regents of the University of Idaho will utilize a neonatal piglet model to examine how human milk feeding influences intestinal barrier function,...
This $498,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under CFDA 93.865 (Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) supports research to identify interactions between the gut virome, bacterial microbiota, and cellular immune responses in HIV-exposed but uninfected infants. The study aims to longitudinally analyze viral metagenome data, bacterial community composition, and T cell cytokine responses to the BCG vaccine in 40...
