This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program provides $424,338 to The Ohio State University to elucidate the mechanisms of ependymal ciliary signaling. The research aims to define the complement of signaling receptors localized to ependymal cilia and determine how G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activation impacts cilia beating and activity-dependent ciliary localization of regulatory signaling proteins. Key activities include proximity labeling, pharmacological evaluations, and spatial organization analysis using expansion microscopy imaging. This work will provide critical insights into the sensory and signaling functions of ependymal motile cilia and lay the foundation for developing new tools to control ependymal cilia activity and understand their role in the mature brain. The award period runs from September 19, 2024 to August 31, 2026.
