Stroke Imaging of Conscious Rats

This proposal is a competitive renewal of R01NS045879 'Stroke Imaging of Conscious Rats.' In the previous grant cycle, we reported over two dozen peer-reviewed publications and leveraged multiple foundation grants to expand stroke research. Stroke remains to be the third leading cause of death and the leading cause of long-term disability.

Role of Protein Kinase D in Age-Related Osteopenia

The goal of this project is to establish that protein kinase D (PKD) is a major regulator of bone formation in vivo and that attenuation of PKD activity leads to age-related osteopenia. Our published and preliminary data, as well as that of others, indicated that PKD activity is required for the in vitro differentiation and mineralizationof osteoblasts in response to bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and that in aged animals there is in vitro and in vivo resistance to the bone forming actions of BMP-7.
