ARS is caused by exposure to high levels of radiation, which could result from a dirty bomb terrorist attack, nuclear accident or nuclear weapons incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To launch the next steps of this important work, the Defense Health Agency has awarded a $24.5 million contract to NSRI, the Department of Defense University Affiliated Research Center of U.S. Strategic Command and the University of Nebraska System. This is the third DHA contract for this work and brings the project to more than $35 million in funding since 2017. The contract also is the highest single-project award in NSRI\u2019s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having made substantial progress toward completing the initial pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic testing on multiple candidate compounds, the research team will continue testing candidate compounds and gathering data for evaluation and approval for use by the Food and Drug Administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are looking at both prevention and mitigation strategies, and they are not necessarily the same agents,\u201d said David Berkowitz, PhD, co-principal investigator and Willa Cather Professor of chemistry at UNL, who also currently leads the Division of Chemistry at the National Science Foundation. \u201dIt is really a challenging space scientifically, but I think that is why our team has been so successful \u2014 we have passion for the purpose of this work. We bring a truly interdisciplinary approach to the science, leveraging the power of the UNL and UNMC collaboration.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A key military partner for the project is the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute. NU contributors and their roles include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Yashpal Chhonker, PhD, UNMC research assistant professor, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics co-lead<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Patrick Dussualt, PhD, UNL Charles Bessey professor, medicinal chemistry lead<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chittibabu Guda, PhD, UNMC professor and chief bioinformatics and research computing officer, transcriptomics lead<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tomas Helikar, PhD, UNL Susan J.

They also have published several papers regarding their work, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/abs\/2011.02103\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A Pipeline for Multi-Omics Data Integration in Metabolic Modeling and Drug Discovery<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/tsapps.nist.gov\/publication\/get_pdf.cfm?pub_id=934395\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NMR and Metabolomics\u2014A Roadmap for the Future<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC8263605\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Radiation exposure induces cross-species temporal metabolic changes that are mitigated in mice by amifostine<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/analyticalsciencejournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full\/10.1002\/mrc.5350\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Multiplatform untargeted metabolomics<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This project also activated a higher-level strategy for NU that is now in full gear \u2014 the Nebraska Drug Discovery and Development Pipeline, or \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/nsri.nebraska.edu\/nd3p\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ND<sup>3<\/sup>P.<\/a>\u201d Connecting the drug discovery and development expertise, capabilities, facilities and technologies from all four NU campuses,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nsri.nebraska.edu\/nd3p\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ND<sup>3<\/sup>P<\/a>&nbsp;helps the DoD explore, innovate and pursue essential but rarely used therapeutics that would not otherwise be pursued due to low profitability. More than 77&nbsp;researchers&nbsp;are listed in the <a href=\"https:\/\/nsri.nebraska.edu\/innovative-capabilities\/medical-countermeasures\/nebraska-drug-discovery-and-development-pipeline\/network\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">network<\/a>, which is supported by a steering committee of industry and academic leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe ARS project is a cornerstone of the ND<sup>3<\/sup>P,&#8221; said Ken Bayles, PhD, co-principal investigator and UNMC vice chancellor for research. \u201cIt has demonstrated our capability to take specific chemical entities from the conceptual phase to pre-investigational new drug status and, ultimately, to the FDA. It provides proof-of-concept that the ND<sup>3<\/sup>P can be leveraged to carry important drug candidates across the \u2018valley of death,\u2019 therefore, serving as an alternate path toward FDA approval.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a DoD UARC, NSRI and NU are considered trusted agents of the DoD and federal government. Leading capabilities and unique qualifications such as comprehensive knowledge of DoD requirements, quick response capacity and current operational experience allow leaders and scientists to create deep partnerships that mature and deliver \u2014 just like the ARS prophylactic, said Maj. Gen. USAF (Ret.) Rick Evans, NSRI executive director.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe reality is that current events and history demonstrate the need to always be ready, even in the case of radiation exposure,\u201d Evans said. \u201cFor those who have volunteered to protect our nation, we are obligated to help them be as prepared as possible, and that is the ultimate intent of this project and the ultimate purpose of our institute \u2014 to keep our warfighters safe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NU President Ted Carter, chairman of the NSRI board of directors, and Jeffrey P. Gold, MD, provost of the University of Nebraska System and UNMC chancellor, congratulated all involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carter said: \u201cThis is a tremendous accomplishment for the University of Nebraska and our faculty. Not only is this contract a signal of Nebraska\u2019s leadership role in doing research that keeps our nation and warfighters safe, but it\u2019s a powerful statement of what is possible when we work together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Gold said: &#8220;This is an example of the national impact that is possible when the University of Nebraska System&#8217;s top investigators collaborate across the individual institutions.\u201d<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: none;\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"\/secure-location.php\" title=\"Pn goc\">Pn
