Role of Peripheral Proteostasis on Brain Aging and Alzheimer's Disease (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-AG-18-020 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The National Institute on Aging (NIA) solicits research projects that would advance our understanding of how protein homeostasis (proteostasis) in peripheral tissues affects brain aging, leading to the development of Alzheimers Disease (AD). Much research on AD has focused on the accumulation of aberrant protein aggregates in the brain, and in particular amyloid and Tau. Formation of aggregates due to mutations encoded in the APP gene or due to hyperphosphorylation, respectively, have been linked to familial AD. The etiology of the more commo...
