NIH – Phenotypic and Functional Characterization of ApoE2 to Inform Translation Strategies for Aging-Related Conditions

15/01/2018 09:50

Objetivo: To conduct basic and translational studies on ApoE2 and other variants to improve understanding of physiologic and cellular differences attributable to the ApoE e2 allele (vs. other ApoE alleles), and how they mediate ApoE e2’s differential effects on longevity and risk for age-related conditions.  This will aid in the identification of potential therapeutic targets for interventions that prevent or ameliorate aging-related diseases by mimicking favorable differential effects of the ApoE e2 variant, while avoiding adverse effects.

NIH – Oocyte Mitochondrial Function in Relation to Fertility, Aging, and Mitochondrial Diseases (R01 and R21)

12/01/2018 11:56

Objetivo: To encourage applications from the scientific community to support outstanding research in the area of oocyte mitochondrial function in relation to fertility, aging, and mitochondrial disease transmission to offspring. The overarching goal is to gain fundamental insight into the role of mitochondria and long-term consequences of their dysfunction in the oocyte, and to develop therapeutic or alternative approaches to treat mitochondrial dysfunction for improving oocyte quality and competency, and health of the resultant offspring.
