Dig Into University Researchers' Outside Income and Conflicts of Interest
Published Dec. 6, 2019
This database was last updated in December 2019 and should only be used as a historical snapshot. There may be new or amended records not reflected here.
Conflict of Interest
Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Capricor Inc.
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)
Some of the technology used in the research covered by this grant is held by Capricor under a licensing agreement with Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. The value of Capriocor, could be affected by the outcomes in this study.
Exosome-mediated cardioprotection and regeneration
Cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) are effective in protecting against ischemic damage and regenerating viable myocardium in acute myocardial infarction, via indirect mechanisms. Here we test the overarching hypothesis that the beneficial effects of CDCs are mediated by nanosized lipid bilayer vesicles (exosomes) that are secreted by CDCs and taken up by neighboring heart cells. The proposed work will advance our mechanistic understanding of cell-mediated cardioprotection and regeneration, while constituting an important first step towards the development of CDC-derived exosomes as a novel cell-free therapeutic agent.

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.
Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.
ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
