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.

Disclosed Conflict of Interest with

REALTA LS/Holdings

Disclosed Value
Listed Reason
Equity Interest - Non-publicly traded entity ( e.g., stock, stock option, or other ownership interest)

Dr. Cunnion has equity interest (undetermined value at this stage) in a company that co-owns Realta LS/Holdings. The company conducts research with PIC1 aimed at commercialization of the molecule as a novel therapeutic. PIC1 is the subject of the current NIH grant.

Listed Research Project
PIC1 inhibition of myeloperoxidase activity and inflammation

Project Narrative The proposed studies will test novel anti-inflammatory compounds, PIC1 peptides, which inhibit a critical pro- inflammatory mediator, myeloperoxidase. Myeloperoxidase is an important contributor to host tissue damage in several diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. These experiments will demonstrate whether PIC1 peptides can effectively block myeloperoxidase activity and inflammation in an animal model of disease.

Sources: National Institutes of Health, public records requests filed at multiple public state universities

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.
