NIH-funded research (13)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Understanding how DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosine is controlled in human cells
Scientists are studying how a DNA modification called 5hmC is regulated in human cells and how its misregulation is linked to cancer and treatment resistance, using human neuron models and gene-editing tools.
-
Targeted snakebite therapies and antivenom research for safer treatments
Researchers are exploring new ways to improve treatments for snakebites by studying natural resistance in animals and creating better antivenoms and toxin tests.
-
Viper Resource Grant at Texas A&M University-Kingsville
A large NIH-supported center in venom research provides snake venoms and related services to help scientists study venom and antivenom development.
-
Viper venom research and antivenom resources at Texas A&M University-Kingsville
A National Natural Toxins Research Center at TAMUK provides high-quality venom and venom-derived materials to researchers to advance basic and translational work on snakes and antivenoms.
-
How changes in the TBK1 gene affect nerve function and behavior
This work looks at how changes in a gene linked to ALS affect nerve cells and behavior, using fruit flies to gain clues that could help people with ALS.
-
How human cells control the DNA mark 5-hydroxymethylcytosine
Researchers are looking at how brain cells make or lose a DNA mark called 5-hydroxymethylcytosine that is linked to cancers such as glioblastoma and lymphoma.
-
Using fly models to understand severe pediatric epilepsy
This study is looking at a serious type of epilepsy in kids by using fruit flies to mimic the condition, so researchers can better understand how it works and find new treatments to help those affected.
-
Investigating gene changes in fruit flies to understand ALS
This study is looking at how certain gene changes might lead to ALS by using fruit flies to see how these changes affect their nervous system, which could help us find new ways to treat the condition.
-
Investigating the role of a specific DNA modification in cancer treatment
This study is looking at how a special chemical change in our DNA, called 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, helps control how our genes work, especially in brain cells, and it aims to find out which proteins are involved in this process, particularly when our DNA is repairing itself.
-
Conferences for Directors of Comparative Medicine Resource Centers
This study is all about bringing together leaders from resource centers that help with biomedical research to chat about their challenges and share new ideas, with the first meeting happening in August 2024 in Rockville, MD.
-
Understanding how a specific DNA modification affects gene regulation in human cells
This study is looking at a special part of our DNA that might help protect against cancer, and it's for anyone interested in how changes in our genes could lead to new treatments for cancer.
-
Investigating key factors that drive aggressive brain tumors.
This study is looking at a type of brain tumor called glioblastoma to find out how certain proteins help cancer cells grow and survive, with the hope of discovering new ways to get rid of these tough cells and improve treatment for patients like you.
-
Improving the performance of polymers used in artificial joints
This study is looking at new materials for hip and knee replacements to make them last longer and work better, helping to reduce wear and inflammation so that patients can enjoy their new joints without needing more surgeries down the line.
