Exploration of MBD1 as a Therapeutic Target for Chronic Pain | Preclinical and Translational Research in Pain Management | Discovery and Validation of Novel Targets for Safe and Effective Treatment of Pain | NCATS | UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA | STONE, LAURA S | Minneapolis, MN | 2023 |
NOFO Title: Emergency Awards: HEAL Initiative-Early-Stage Discovery of New Pain and Opioid Use Disorder Targets Within the Understudied Druggable Proteome (R21 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-TR-22-011 Summary: Chronic pain results in long-term changes throughout the central nervous system. These include abnormal structure and function of the frontal cortex region of the brain, which relays pain messages and also the common pain-related conditions depression, anxiety, and cognitive impairment. Peripheral nerve injury results in widespread and long-lasting changes to DNA in the frontal cortex. DNA methylation, in which chemical tags are attached to DNA, is one way the body controls the activity of genes over time. This control occurs via proteins that recognize tagged DNA, and some of these proteins do not work properly in the frontal cortex many months after nerve injury. These changes occur after nerve injury and are linked to mechanical sensitivity. This project will determine this DNA-binding protein is a good target for finding new medications for chronic pain. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Multilevel Interventions to Reduce Harm and Improve Quality of Life for Patients on Long Term Opioid Therapy (MIRHIQL): Resource Center (U24- Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-042 Summary: Decreasing opioid dosing faster than advised by clinical recommendations often leaves chronic pain unaddressed and may increase the risk of overdose and suicide compared to continuing long-term opioid treatment. Clinical and research communities are uncertain about how to assess and manage long-term opioid therapy, despite having diagnostic and treatment frameworks for chronic pain and opioid use disorder. Because of this undefined space, health policy, institutions, and practitioners lack clear advice on long-term opioid prescribing in chronic pain. The goal of the MRC is to provide infrastructure support for the network; create a risk-benefit decision tool to assist providers in determining when opioids should be continued as prescribed, tapered, or tapered/discontinued; and develop and validate a clinical definition for this population (name, identifying associated symptoms/behaviors, and generating a screening tool). This project will leverage big data analytics in administrative datasets, natural language processing approaches in electronic health records, and cohort modeling techniques to accomplish these key responsibilities. These efforts will complement the qualitative data collection approaches in the Becker Resource Center. |
