This $1,547,718 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) will fund research to investigate the role of histone demethylases KDM5B and KDM5C in alcohol-associated liver disease development and resolution. The research, conducted by the University of Kansas Medical Center Research Institute, Inc. (KUMCRI), aims to determine how these epigenetic regulators in hepatocytes influence cell-cell...
The University of Colorado-Denver has been awarded a $179,154 Project Grant from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) grant program. The funding will support research to elucidate the role of Wnt ligands and related signaling pathways in driving the activation of hepatic stellate cells, which are key mediators of liver fibrosis in alcohol-related liver disease. The 2-year project aims to characterize the impact of...
This federal Project Grant award for $153,694, provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program, supports research to model a national graduated-BAC per se policy for 21-24 year old drivers to reduce alcohol-impaired driving injury and fatal crashes. The primary awardee, the University of California, Irvine, will lead this research effort, which includes a sub-award to Colorado State University to...
This Project Grant award, totaling $213,000.00, was provided by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program. The goal of this 24-month project, with a period of performance from August 22, 2024 to July 31, 2026, is to assess the role of nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2) and the interleukin-22 (IL-22)-STAT3 signaling pathway in alcohol-mediated exacerbation of ulcerative colitis (UC) pathology. The research...
This $349,738 project grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) is funding research at Ursinus College to investigate the role of microglial fractalkine signaling in altered dopaminergic wiring resulting from fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD). The research aims to (1) define the developmental timing of alcohol-induced alterations in fractalkine signaling, and (2) determine the impact of these changes on...

The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $438,375 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to establish a human liver-on-a-chip model for studying alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD). The 2-year project, starting September 2023, aims to investigate the roles of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and acetaldehyde metabolism in regulating ethanol-induced liver damage as well as the contribution of fibrotic...

The University of California Irvine was awarded a $412,125 Project Grant from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) federal grant program. The grant funds a research project to comprehensively determine how alcohol consumption alters the metabolism of critical organs, which can contribute to alcohol-induced organ damage. The project will employ arteriovenous metabolomics to quantitatively measure the dynamic metabolic activities of 10 major organs in alcohol-fed pigs over time. This will elucidate the organ-specific metabolic changes caused by alcohol consumption and identify key genes driving those changes. The findings may illuminate new therapeutic targets to mitigate alcohol's detrimental effects on organ health. The project is scheduled to run from September 2023 to August 2025.
