The $146,816 award to the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio will support research to determine if astrocytic FOLH1 contributes to neuronal hyperexcitability during alcohol withdrawal, and to identify additional genes and pathways in...
- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $550,417 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the University of Texas at Austin. The grant, effective September 1, 2025 through May 31, 2030, supports research to investigate how heavy alcohol exposure in aging individuals leads to impaired microglia function, neurodegeneration, and cognitive deficits. The study aims to determine whether dysregulated neuroimmune and microglia responses are...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under CFDA 93.273 - Alcohol Research Programs provides $603,499.00 to the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) to develop a comprehensive, web-based knowledge module that integrates microbiota, metabolite, and host pathway data to map microbial signatures and mechanisms involved in alcohol-related organ damage (AROD). The project aims to define "alcohol enterotypes"...
- This federal Project Grant award of $396,643 from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) supports research to elucidate the mechanisms underlying stress-potentiated ethanol drinking. The project aims to investigate the role of the histone methyltransferase G9a and its effects on dynorphin-positive neurons in the nucleus accumbens to regulate this behavior. Key objectives include testing the hypothesis that G9a's effects on...
