The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $157,500 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) to The Ohio State University to conduct research on the cellular mechanisms regulating tooth development. The research aims to determine how the signaling molecule SEMA7A influences the mineralization of dentin, elongation of tooth roots, and innervation of teeth. The study will use global and conditional SEMA7A knockout mouse...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $226,500 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) to The Medical University of South Carolina. The grant, titled "CD38 Signaling in Aging-Associated Immune Responses Induced by Oral Pathogens," aims to define how oral pathogens affect aging-associated immune responses and determine if inhibition of the CD38 enzyme can alleviate inflammatory bone loss and...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $1,849,232.90 project grant (CFDA 93.121 - Oral Diseases and Disorders Research) to The General Hospital Corporation, doing business as Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), with a period of performance from September 1, 2024 to May 31, 2028. The goal of this project is to identify the cellular and molecular identity of genes and pathways defining dental mesenchymal cell differentiation and fate early in tooth...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research (CFDA 93.121) program, will support research to investigate the structure, biology, and biomechanics of cementum as a function of aging and periodontal disease. The $249,000 award to the University of Illinois will fund a 5-year research project with the following key objectives: 1) Identify the biochemical, structural, and mechanical features of...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $421,800 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) to Midwestern University. The purpose of this 3-year grant, with a start date of September 7, 2023, is to develop hybrid hydrogel-based dental adhesives that are less vulnerable to hydrolytic degradation compared to current methacrylate-based alternatives. The goal is to create a truly biomimetic dental adhesive that can not only...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $163,411 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research (CFDA 93.121) federal grant program to The Ohio State University. The grant supports research to understand the interactions between Streptococcus mutans, a primary driver of dental caries, and other commensal oral bacteria. The research aims to explicate the nutritional niches and carbohydrate utilization preferences of these microbes within oral...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $441,500 Project Grant (CFDA 93.121 Oral Diseases and Disorders Research) to the University of Colorado-Denver to develop uniquely high conversion and mechanically robust composite restorative materials for improved dental applications. The award aims to investigate the structure-property relationships and mechanisms that enable these novel polymer composites to achieve exceptional strength, toughness, and wear...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will provide $656,315 to Temple University to study the impact of cyclic strain on the pathogenesis of oral microbes, particularly Candida albicans and denture-related microbiota. The goal is to mechanistically understand how biomaterial cyclic strain, driven by chewing forces, can influence the virulence and dysbiosis of oral...
