This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, provides $449,203 to Mayo Clinic Jacksonville (A Nonprofit Corporation) to investigate the mechanisms by which the subventricular zone (SVZ) neurogenic niche influences the malignancy of glioblastoma (GBM) brain tumors. The project aims to leverage novel cell-specific proteomic...
This federal Project Grant award of $649,226 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program supports research to investigate mechanisms driving mesenchymal transition and therapeutic resistance in glioblastoma (GBM), a highly aggressive brain cancer. The research aims to dissect how tumors undergo this transition and acquire resistance to standard-of-care...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program will support research on a novel signaling axis involving the protein connexin 43 (CX43) and its role in regulating cancer stem cells in glioblastoma, the most common and deadly form of brain cancer. The $161,000 award to the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve...
This $195,896 Project Grant, awarded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, supports research to define the circuit connectivity between glioblastoma, a fatal brain cancer, and diverse neuronal populations in the mouse brain. The research aims to elucidate the role of cholinergic neuromodulatory inputs in regulating glioma progression, with the goal of...
This $162,486 Project Grant, awarded by the National Cancer Institute (CFDA Program 93.398 - Cancer Research Manpower), supports research at Case Western Reserve University to study translation regulation and its role in glioblastoma (GBM) stem cell adaptation to hypoxic tumor environments. The research aims to use ribosome profiling and RNA sequencing to elucidate how translational regulation, rather than transcriptional regulation, enables GBM stem cells to survive and proliferate in...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.398 - Cancer Research Manpower) provides $151,856 to the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University to conduct research on the relationship between the hyper-thrombotic state and immunosuppression in glioblastoma (GBM), the most common primary malignant brain tumor. The research aims to: 1) investigate how GBM induces platelet hyperactivity and its impact on tumor growth, and 2)...
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $954,000 Project Grant (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) to the University of Pittsburgh to investigate how aging promotes the growth of glioblastoma, one of the most lethal forms of cancer. The research aims to leverage insights from the biology of neural stem cells and the molecular circuitry of cancer stem cells to understand how aging creates a tumor microenvironment that supports the survival and proliferation of glioblastoma. The...

This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, is focused on assessing the role of the SMARCA5 protein in glioblastoma, an incurable brain tumor. The $638,697 award to the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University aims to determine how inhibiting SMARCA5 can force glioma stem cells to differentiate, potentially rendering the glioblastoma less aggressive and improving patient survival. The project, which runs from July 2025 to June 2030, will evaluate the mechanism by which SMARCA5 regulates glioma stem cell maintenance and tumor growth, as well as preclinically test a first-in-class SMARCA5 inhibitor developed by the researchers. The goal is to provide a mechanistic understanding of cell state regulation in glioblastoma and advance a potential differentiation therapy approach to improve treatment outcomes.
