US Department of Health & Human Services (National Institutes of Health)

This funding opportunity supports innovative research into how inflammasome activation affects individuals with HIV and substance use disorders, aiming to uncover mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets to improve health outcomes.

Description

The scientific objective of this Funding Opportunity Announcement is to encourage research to delineate the role of inflammasomes in the neuropathology produced by acute or chronic drug exposure and HIV infection. Understanding the involvement of inflammasomes in virus and drug-induced immune activation may help identify molecular markers and CNS immune cells associated with HIV-1 infection or disease progression among substance abuse populations, as well as identify novel therapies to target inflammasome activation or suppression to treat neuroinflammation and immune dysregulation aroused in these processes.
