This federal Project Grant award, valued at $546,350.00 and granted by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, supports research to define the neurotoxic and neurodevelopmental health risks of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The key products and services to be delivered include: Defining the chemical interactions that mediate neuronal uptake and accumulation of PFAS compounds. Elucidating the neurotoxic...
This $1,651,801 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program will support research to investigate how exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) can impact placental health and increase susceptibility to infection-mediated preterm birth. The research, led by Wayne State University, aims to: 1) determine if PFAS exposure decreases interferon signaling and induces placental toxicity, 2)...
This $695,853 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) Federal Grant Program. The funding supports research by the Arkansas Children's Research Institute (ACRI) and collaborators from Emory University and the University of Kentucky to investigate how prenatal and postnatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) impacts children's development, as well as whether maternal exercise can...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded Wayne State University a 3-year, $1,644,161 Project Grant under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113) to study the effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on atherosclerosis and cholesterol metabolism. The project aims to determine if PFAS mixtures accelerate atherosclerosis in a mouse model, assess how PFAS disrupts bile acid reuptake and leads to increased cholesterol levels, and evaluate the...
This Project Grant award of $157,437 from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program aims to define the urinary, biliary, and fecal excretion of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and the impact of dietary fiber. The key products or services to be delivered under this award include: Analyzing samples collected from humanized PPARA mice exposed to seven common PFAS in drinking water and fed different diets,...
This $121,057 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports a prospective study to investigate the associations between per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) mixtures and pregnancy outcomes, including spontaneous abortion, preterm birth, and small for gestational age births, among Black women. The study aims to describe the modifying role of perceived stress on these associations and...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program provides $561,584 to study the ovarian disrupting effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on female reproductive health. The research aims to investigate how exposure to the "forever chemical" PFNA, as well as PFAS mixtures, can interfere with ovarian follicle maturation and ovulation. The study will integrate in...
This $143,331 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program. The grant will fund research by Wayne State University to investigate the mechanisms by which exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) impacts male reproductive health. The key research activities include single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of testicular cells to understand how PFAS exposure affects...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program provides $385,219 to the University of Rhode Island to study the role of albumin and other serum factors in the accumulation and toxicity of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The key objectives are to: Determine whether albumin is a key factor for PFAS distribution and elimination in mice. This will involve quantifying PFAS...
This $499,454.23 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports the development of edible sorbent therapies to mitigate dietary exposures to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as "forever chemicals." The research aims to create multicomponent sorbents derived from naturally occurring or generally recognized as safe materials that can effectively reduce PFAS...
