- This Project Grant award of $387,006 from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under CFDA Program 93.866 - Aging Research supports research to understand how indoles derived from commensal gut bacteria can promote mobility and counteract sarcopenia (age-related muscle wasting) in aging animals. The research aims to determine the mechanisms by which indoles regulate muscle protein homeostasis, mitochondrial function, and other cellular pathways to maintain muscle mass and function during...
- This National Institutes of Health National Institute on Aging project grant awarded $105,176 to Augusta University Research Institute, Inc. to support research directed at understanding the potential link between aging-related decreases in bone mass and kidney function. Specifically, the award will fund investigation of how increased levels of the metabolite kynurenine may induce an aged phenotype resulting in both bone loss and kidney dysfunction through the FGF23/klotho pathway. The...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), provides $688,634.00 in funding to The Hospital For Special Surgery Fund, Inc. (dba HSS Foundation) from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2029. The award supports research to investigate the mechanisms by which the constitutive type-I interferon (IFN-I) response suppresses osteoblastogenesis and bone formation, especially in the context of inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a $166,488 Project Grant to the University of California, Davis to investigate the role of hypoxia-inducible factor-2a (HIF-2a) signaling in age-induced bone loss. The project aims to identify mechanisms underlying bone deterioration with aging and develop novel therapies to reverse age-related osteoporotic bone loss and improve fracture resistance. The project period runs from December...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $245,434 to Wake Forest University Health Sciences to conduct research on preserving muscle and bone health in older adults undergoing weight loss interventions. The 2.5-year project aims to develop automated analysis techniques to measure changes in muscle quantity and quality, as well as bone strength, using computed tomography (CT) scans collected as part of an ongoing clinical trial....
- This $1,610,219 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.846), will fund a 5-year longitudinal study examining the relationship between muscle quantity, quality, function, and biomarkers with changes in bone density, microarchitecture, and strength in older adults. The University of Pittsburgh will conduct this research, which aims to...
- This Project Grant award, titled "IMPACT OF DIFFERENT CLASSES OF OSTEOPOROSIS MEDICATIONS ON MUSCLE HEALTH IN OLDER ADULTS", was provided by the National Institute on Aging under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866). The $162,020 award, granted on August 5, 2025, will support the career development of geriatrician and endocrinologist Dr. Nami Safai Haeri. The key objectives of the research are to: 1) evaluate the impact of different osteoporosis medication classes...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $354,000 Project Grant under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to Panorama Research Incorporated, a for-profit biotech company in Sunnyvale, CA. The grant supports research to develop a novel therapy for sarcopenia, characterized by age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass, quality, and strength. The proposed therapy is based on the adipokine Isthmin 1 (ISM1), which has been shown to promote protein synthesis and suppress degradation...
- This $146,070 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will support research to investigate how the accumulation of senescent cells and their secretory phenotypes impact osteocyte mechanobiology in a 3D bone-mimicking microenvironment. The goals are to: (1) acquire experimental skills and career training to expand the researcher's program into cellular aging/senescence and molecular biology; (2) investigate how local vs. systemic senescent cells and...
- 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...
