Opportunity 1 Link: https://www.grants.gov/web/grants/view-opportunity.html?oppId=316505
Opportunity Number: RFA-DK-19-008
Opportunity Title: Adipogenesis, Adipocyte Function and Obesity Following HIV Infection, Antiretroviral Therapy, or Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)
Agency Name: Department of Health and Human Services
National Institutes of Health
Close Date: Nov 07, 2019
Award Ceiling: $500,000
Estimated Total Program Funding: $1,500,000
Description: The prevalence of obesity is increasing in people with HIV (PWH), contributing to multiple complications associated with this condition. There is mounting evidence that there are unique mechanisms contributing to the development of obesity in PWH versus people without HIV. Furthermore, the biology of the adipocytes might be altered in overweight or obese PWH versus overweight or obese people without HIV. This FOA seeks applications to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of how HIV and antiretroviral drugs used for therapy or pre-exposure prophylaxis contribute to the development of obesity and alter adipocyte and adipose tissue function as well as the effects of these processes on metabolic and physiological processes within the mission of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK).
