Diet-Induced Changes in Inflammation as Determinants of Colon Cancer (R21): -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.
