We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.
You can help! If you notice any innacuracies, please

Androgen Regulated Development of the Xenopus Larynx @ Columbia Univ New York Morningside
[unreadable] DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The laryngeal muscle of the anuran Xenopus laevis undergoes a complete switch from a mix of fast and slow twitch muscle fibers to all fast twitch fibers in response to androgen treatment. The proposed experiments will investigate the role of myogenic stem cells (myoblasts) in this androgen response. Mitotic cells, including myoblasts, are first depleted from larynges by the use of anti-neoplastic drugs and radiation. Myoblasts will then be isolated from larynges of animals expressing green fluorescent protein and transplanted back into irradiated larynges in order to determine their ability to rescue the response to androgen. Further experiments will determine whether myoblasts are the target of androgen by rendering larynges androgen insensitive by means of a dominant negative androgen receptor (dnAR). Myoblasts from wild-type larynges will then be transplanted into those expressing the dnAR in order to determine their ability to rescue the androgen response. The final aim of the application is to determine the androgen responsive target genes responsible for fiber type switching. [unreadable] [unreadable]
