- This $522,167 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) supports research into the "Mechanisms of rDNA Instability During Aging" at the University of Virginia. The project will investigate the role of the FOB1 protein and the RNA Polymerase I transcription factor UAF in regulating double-strand breaks and recombination at the ribosomal DNA locus, a key driver of genomic instability and aging. The research will utilize innovative techniques...
- This Project Grant award, valued at $647,866.00 and provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), supports research to investigate the epigenetic regulation of nuclear cGAS activity and its role in aging-related inflammation. The key objective is to understand how aging-related changes in histone acetylation patterns and associated chromatin-binding proteins, such as BRD4, activate the innate immune sensor cGAS and contribute to chronic...
- This $333,116 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports research to understand the impact of telomere dysfunction and natural aging on the intestinal stem cell niche. The goal is to examine how aging and acute telomere failure suppress stromal niche support for intestinal stem cells, contributing to intestinal phenotypes associated with aging and telomeropathies like dyskeratosis congenita. The research will utilize a novel mouse...
- The Minnesota Nathan Shock Center of Excellence on Genome Integrity and Aging was awarded a $1,270,502 Project Grant by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) on June 17, 2025. The goal of this grant is to provide access to specialized cores that can accurately measure DNA damage, DNA damage response signaling, DNA repair activity, and age-associated epigenetic changes in genomic DNA. The Center will also provide access to murine and human cell and tissue models with...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $378,750 in funding to Saint Louis University to conduct research on the role of cytosolic DNA-induced sterile inflammation in driving cellular and organismal progeria/aging hallmarks. The key objectives are to: 1) define the non-canonical mode of STING stimulation upon progerin-induced accumulation of cytosolic DNA, 2) examine how STING, STAT1, and downstream interferon-stimulated genes like...
- This federal Project Grant award for $1,249,147.00 was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The grant is a collaborative effort between Epicypher, Inc., a biotechnology company in Durham, North Carolina, and Dr. Nicolas Young of Baylor College of Medicine to develop a novel platform called AgingPTM for studying aging-associated combinatorial histone post-translational modifications (ACPTMs) in tissue. This platform is intended to...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $408,600.00 to Trustees of Tufts College, doing business as Tufts University School of Medicine, to conduct research on the role of cytosolic DNA sensing in regulating tissue-resident macrophage function and organismal longevity. The key objectives of this research project are to: 1) Ascertain the role of endogenous retroelements in shaping tissue-resident macrophage survival and...
