This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research) provides $1,472,604 to support research on cyst induction and growth in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The award was granted to the Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, and will fund a research project from August 2024 through May 2029. The key objectives are to investigate...
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded a $223,918 Project Grant under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) to the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. The purpose of this 20-month grant, awarded on September 28, 2024, is to study niche filling as a means to achieve long-term, kidney-specific depletion of resident macrophages in order to slow the progression of autosomal dominant polycystic...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under CFDA 93.847 Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research, provides $587,212 to the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) to conduct research on the role of the CDKN1A (P21) gene in polycystic kidney disease (PKD). The goal of the research is to determine how abnormal regulation of the P21 gene, which is involved in cell cycle control and tissue repair, contributes...
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded a $349,325 Project Grant under CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research to Regennova, Inc., a small disadvantaged business in Durham, North Carolina. The grant supports the development of an orally-available, effective, and well-tolerated drug to treat autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), which affects over 350,000 Americans. The project aims to create and...
The University of Pittsburgh received a $198,750 Project Grant from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847) to develop a rapid, quantitative platform using yeast to classify how approximately 70 identified mutations in the polycystin-1 (PC1) protein disrupt channel activity with PC2. This research aims to provide new reagents and assays to the scientific and PKD (polycystic kidney disease) community to study the molecular defects of PC1 mutants. The...
This $142,902 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), aims to uncover the mechanism by which the regulatory GTPase ARL13B drives polycystic kidney disease (PKD) pathogenesis. The research, led by Dr. Van Sciver at Emory University, will biochemically and genetically dissect ARL13B's interaction with three effector proteins - CDK1, ARL3,...
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded a $200,000 Project Grant under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) to The Washington University in St. Louis. The goal of this R56 award is to delineate the molecular mechanism regulating autophagy in Autosomal Dominant Tubulointerstitial Kidney Disease (ADTKD) caused by UMOD mutations. The university will use CRISPR/Cas9 technology to generate the first...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), provides $225,304 to Northwestern University for research on polycystin proteins and their role in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The primary goals of this project are to: 1) Characterize the functional consequences of ADPKD disease-causing variants in the PKD2 gene using...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), provides $640,001 to Yale University to conduct research on the mechanisms and function of the protein Polycystin-1 (PC1) in the context of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The key objectives are to: 1) determine if a specific 200 amino acid fragment of PC1 can...
