This $1,656,000 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) supports research at the Scripps Research Institute to investigate the role of endogenous opioid signaling in regulating neuro-immune interactions and immune homeostasis in the skin. Specifically, the project aims to uncover how sensory neurons and immune cells, particularly regulatory T cells, communicate via endogenous...
This $246,750 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) will support research to investigate the role of the mesocortical glutamatergic pathway in the development and maintenance of chronic neuropathic pain.
The research project aims to examine how changes in glutamatergic inputs from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to the prefrontal cortex...
This $2,569,851 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), supports research to investigate how the PD-L1/PD-1 immune checkpoint pathway controls physiological and pathological pain, as well as opioid analgesia, through neuronal, immune, and glial mechanisms. The project aims to validate the actions of PD-L1 and the checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab on neuroinflammation...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), provides $444,125 to Duke University to conduct research exploring the role of the LRRC55 protein in chronic pain pathways. The goal is to determine if LRRC55, a regulatory subunit of the BK potassium channel, can serve as a novel target for treating chronic pain, particularly mechanical pain, without the side effects associated...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), provides $351,097 to support the Mass General Brigham Interdisciplinary Clinical Pain Research Training Program. The program aims to expand and enhance the pool of early career stage investigators conducting clinical pain research. Over the 5-year award period from August 2024 to July 2029, the program will provide postdoctoral fellows...
The National Institutes of Health National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke awarded an $11.2 million project grant to the University of Pittsburgh to define the mechanisms of pain relief associated with dorsal root ganglion and spinal cord stimulation. This three-year grant will support research under the Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) to advance understanding of neuromodulatory devices for chronic pain treatment.
The University will conduct preclinical...
This $14.2 million project grant from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, will fund research from September 2022 to August 2025 under the Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279).
The Massachusetts General Hospital will investigate the mechanisms by which spinal cord stimulation reduces pain, with the goal of improving device design and patient selection. Researchers will apply specialized nerve...
This Project Grant award for $9,237,770 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (CFDA 93.279 - Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs) aims to gain integrated mechanistic insights into the peripheral and central biological processes that contribute to chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP). The primary recipient, Washington University, will characterize somatosensory, neural, immune, affective, and cognitive mechanisms associated with CPSP in patients and animal models....
This $1,525,066 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) will support research focused on understanding the complex mechanisms underlying chronic pain. The study aims to elucidate how somatosensory, cognitive, and affective information is integrated in corticothalamic brain networks to produce the experience of chronic pain. Through direct...
This 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), provides $453,104 to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center to conduct research on spinal pain circuits. The research aims to explore the role of two distinct subtypes of spinal projection neurons, TACR1- and GPR83-expressing, in chronic pain states. It will examine changes in the...
