The National Cancer Institute is offering this grant to support research projects focusing on identifying diet-induced changes in inflammation as contributors to colon cancer risks. This grant aims to explore various factors such as anti- and pro-inflammatory mediators, genetic polymorphisms, and the physiological effectiveness of dietary components on colon cancer inhibition. Researchers are encouraged to propose innovative approaches to understanding the role of inflammation in colon cancer development. This opportunity falls under the NIH Exploratory/Developmental Grant (R21) mechanism, with no set number of anticipated awards.

| Description: | -Purpose. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA), issued by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), encourages the submission of grant applications that describe research projects focused on the identification and characterization of diet-induced changes in inflammation linked to colon cancer risks. This FOA is designed to stimulate research efforts that will lead to the identification and characterization of: diet-induced changes in anti- and pro-inflammatory mediators that modulate colon cancer risk; b) genetic polymorphisms that modify the responses to specific bioactive food components with regard to colon cancer inhibition; and c) the physiological effectiveness of dietary components in terms of concentration, activity, duration of exposure, degrees of stability, chemical forms, and receptor-binding affinity in inflammatory colonocytes. This FOA will not support applications that propose epidemiological studies based on diet-related risks of colon cancer. -Mechanism of Support. This FOA utilizes the NIH Exploratory/Developmental Grant (R21) mechanism and runs in parallel with an FOA of identical scientific scope, PA-08-210, that solicits applications under the NIH Research Project Grant (R01) mechanism. -Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications; therefore, the anticipated number of awards is not known. |
