- This Project Grant award, valued at $647,866.00 and provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), supports research to investigate the epigenetic regulation of nuclear cGAS activity and its role in aging-related inflammation. The key objective is to understand how aging-related changes in histone acetylation patterns and associated chromatin-binding proteins, such as BRD4, activate the innate immune sensor cGAS and contribute to chronic...
- This $485,375 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will fund research at the University of Washington to investigate genomic alterations in skeletal muscle associated with aging. The key objectives are to: Explore if alternative splicing of mRNA results in quantitative differential isoform changes associated with aging, potentially leading to increased expression of non-functional proteins relevant for healthy muscle function. The researchers...
- This $1,081,439 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences Program (CFDA 47.074) supports research to uncover the biochemical mechanisms behind cellular aging. The project, titled "TRACING THE COORDINATED CONTROL OF NAD+ HOMEOSTASIS", aims to create a comprehensive database and metabolic map of NAD+ biology throughout the lifespan. This research will investigate how NAD+ metabolism is maintained, regulated, and disrupted as cells age, with...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research) provides $536,468 to the University of California, San Diego (UC San Diego) to conduct research on protein aggregation in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). The project aims to investigate how HSCs, which regenerate blood and immune cells, preferentially traffic misfolded proteins to aggresomes to maintain fitness and self-renewal, and how this process is impacted by...
- 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...
- This Project Grant award of $437,875 from the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) will fund a 2-year research project at the University of California, San Diego to quantify neurovascular protein lifetimes in the central nervous system under healthy, aging, and Alzheimer's disease conditions. The key objectives are to generate a comprehensive atlas of neurovascular protein lifetimes and identify changes associated with aging and Alzheimer's disease. The project will...
- 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 federal Project Grant award of $3,101,237.00 was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866). The funding supports a research project investigating the mechanisms linking persistent DNA damage to immune responses and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell function in the context of aging and DNA repair deficiency. Key objectives of the project include: 1) elucidating...
- This federal Project Grant award of $498,366.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to develop a platform for high-resolution imaging of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in arrays of microscopic conical wells to assess biological age. The project, led by the University of California, San Diego, seeks to effectively implement an imaging-based chromatin and epigenetic age (IMAGE) analysis approach that captures changes in chromatin organization and...
- This federal Project Grant award of $240,069 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to Vanderbilt University will be used to explore the effects of lifestyle on immune system activity and molecular markers of aging across populations with diverse lifestyles, from traditional subsistence-level to highly urban. The research will focus on analyzing three age-associated molecular phenotypes - gene expression, DNA methylation, and telomere length - in peripheral blood...
