The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai a Project Grant totaling $464,750 under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) for the period of June 2, 2026 through May 31, 2028. The award supports investigator-initiated biomedical research examining the planar cell polarity function of the Wnt co-receptor LRP5/6-Arrow in developmental and cellular processes. The research project employs genome-wide genetic screening in Drosophila model organisms to identify novel pathway-specific regulators and advance understanding of how Wnt signaling specificity is regulated between the canonical Wnt/β-catenin pathway and the Wnt/planar cell polarity signaling pathway, with implications for developmental biology, cell fate determination, and tissue maintenance. This research contributes to the NICHD's mission to advance understanding of human development and enhance child health outcomes through fundamental mechanistic studies of evolutionarily conserved cell signaling pathways. The project addresses critical gaps in knowledge regarding the activation and regulation of planar cell polarity signaling, which is essential for proper organogenesis and cell polarity across diverse tissues and organisms.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
