- This $147,486 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) supports research to investigate the role of chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) in cellular senescence and its contribution to aging. The research aims to understand: 1) if CMA activity changes upon induction of senescence, 2) if CMA modulates senescence kinetics and by what mechanism(s), 3) if CMA is required for senescent cell clearance, and 4) if restoring CMA activity...
- This $846,358 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to build a research platform to assess the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in vivo. The goal is to elucidate the molecular identity of the SASP secretome and develop biomarkers to distinguish senescence and SASP signatures across different tissues. To accomplish this, the award will leverage a novel SASP-ER platform that permits conditional tagging of secreted proteins in...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $2,208,503.00 to Cornell University to conduct research on the role of autophagy in cellular aging. The project, titled "System-wide and Mechanistic Deconvolution of Autophagy in Cellular Aging", aims to systematically investigate how different forms of autophagy influence cellular aging processes, with a focus on understanding how modulating selective autophagy pathways such...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) is supporting the development of a "Multimodal, Multiscale and Multistage Systems Biology (M3SB) Infrastructure for Precision Medicine in Alzheimer's Disease and Longevity". The $802,034 award aims to conduct multi-modal analyses of genetics, multi-omics data, cross-species protein interactome networks, and human brain-specific functional genomic data to identify...
- This $1,031,595 project grant from the National Institute on Aging, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, supports research under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The awardee, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, will define the landscape and mechanisms of protein redox regulation during aging. Specifically, the Institute will systematically map cysteine oxidation networks in mouse tissues to determine their role in coordinating protein complex assemblies relevant to age-related...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging's (NIA) Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) provides $660,402 to the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) to study the role of autophagy, a cellular process that recycles damaged components, in regulating lipid metabolism and inflammation in microglia during brain aging and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease (AD). The research aims to determine how microglial lipid phagocytosis inhibits autophagy, leading to the...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, awarded a $461,313 Project Grant under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866) to Yale University. The funding supports a 2-year research project to investigate the role of the protein CSPalpha in regulating presynaptic autophagy and neurodegeneration. Key objectives include characterizing synaptic vesicles and autophagosomes in wild-type and CSPalpha knockout mouse models, as well...
- This federal Project Grant award for $1,249,147.00 was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The grant is a collaborative effort between Epicypher, Inc., a biotechnology company in Durham, North Carolina, and Dr. Nicolas Young of Baylor College of Medicine to develop a novel platform called AgingPTM for studying aging-associated combinatorial histone post-translational modifications (ACPTMs) in tissue. This platform is intended to...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a $320,511 project grant to TRU Diagnostics Inc. to develop a novel diagnostic tool for chronic diseases. The project aims to create a "non-stochastic W function epigenomic roadmap" using systems-based dynamic modeling to capture the shifting homeostatic set points of epigenetic markers over time. This transformative approach aims to enable personalized, dynamic health forecasts...
- This federal Project Grant award of $438,625.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) to Brown University aims to study how the cellular senescence phenotype changes over time and develop technology to track the duration of cells in senescent states. The key objectives are to (1) examine how the senescence phenotype, including the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), evolves from early to deeper states, and (2) advance a multi-symbol molecular recorder...
