It provides both scientific and technical expertise and state-of-the-art high-performance, tandem mass spectrometric instrumentation. The facility also provides a service for small molecule analysis. Significant instrumentation in the facility includes three QSTAR quadrupole orthogonal time of flight instruments, and both an LTQ-Orbitrap platform with electron transfer dissociation (ETD) and an LTQ-FT linear ion trap FT-ICR instrument equipped with the ability to perform electron capture dissociation (ECD). The Center also has a 4700 Proteomic Analyzer MALDI tandem time of flight instrument; as well as a QTRAP 5500 hybrid triple quadrupole linear ion trap instrument; and a Thermo Fisher LTQ Orbitrap Velos. Major research focuses within the Center are the analysis of post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation and O-GlcNAcylation and development of methods for quantitative comparative analysis of protein and post-translational modification levels. The program also continues to develop one of the leading suites of tools for analysis of mass spectrometry proteomics data, Protein Prospector. The current web-based release allows unrestricted searching of MS and MSMS data, as well as the ability to perform comparative quantitative analysis of samples using isotopic-labeling reagents. It is the only freely-available web-based resource that allows this type of analysis.

In cooperation with the Data and Clinical Cores at the Layton Center, the Biomarkers and Genetics Core generates and maintains biomarker data for select biomarkers which have established roles in the characterization of subjects with or at risk of dementia. Biological markers of brain aging, dementia risk, and neurodegeneration have the potential to accelerate the identification of disease mechanisms and treatment strategies. Biomarkers may include genes, proteins, or other metabolites, and may be identified in DNA, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), or plasma. Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype is generated for all research subjects. Sub-groups of subjects have other types of biomarker data. Many subjects have had genome-wide SNP data generated. In order to foster collaborative research as well as expand resources and expertise, samples (DNA, CSF, and plasma) and data are distributed to qualified investigators worldwide. Most of these researchers are pursuing the causes and modifiers of dementia. Data and samples are collected from well characterized research subjects including the healthy elderly and dementia patients.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on December 6th,2022. The Oregon Alzheimer?s Disease Center?s (OADC) Clinical Core program, directed by Dr. Jeffrey Kaye, performs longitudinal studies of the natural history of brain aging and Alzheimer''s disease in patients and healthy control volunteers. These studies which are performed through standardized neurological, neuro-psychological, and brain-imaging assessments are carried out in the Alzheimer''s Disease and Memory Assessment Clinics as well as through community-based assessments conducted in the homes of study volunteers. The Layton Center Neuroimaging Lab conducts brain-imaging MRI brain scans to assist in diagnosis of brain disease. Typically, MRI images are taken from three different planes. These planes are known as the coronal plane, sagittal plane and the axial plane. Each series of MRI images is named after the plane from which they were obtained. The Clinical Core?s research is focused on preclinical and early Alzheimer?s disease (AD) yet is also poised to participate in other relevant new research as it arises. The OADC Clinical Core recruits, assesses and follows individuals from population groups at high risk for dementia such as: the healthy ?oldest old?, subjects with family history of AD, and subjects with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Research with underserved populations The Oregon Alzheimer?s Disease Center also maintains two Satellite programs to enhance understanding of underserved populations: The Klamath Exceptional Aging Project (KEAP) is a community-based study of brain aging being conducted in Klamath Falls. The African American Dementia and Aging Project (AADAPt) s a Portland-based cohort of 100 African American seniors.

A free, easy to use program for generating quality meshes for use in biological simulations. It is currently integrated with SCIRun and uses the SCIRun system to visualize the intermediate results. The BioMesh3D program uses a particle system to distribute nodes on the separating surfaces that separate the different materials and then uses the TetGen software package to generate a full tetrahedral mesh.

http://www.loni.usc.edu/Software/Debabeler

Software to manage the conversion of imaging data from one file format and convention to another. It consists of a graphical user interface to visually program the translations, and a data translation engine to read, sort and translate the input files, and write the output files to disk. The data translation engine: (1) Reads metadata from a set of image files on disk to identify the source that produced each file; (2) Groups the image files into user-defined collections using image metadata values; (3) Translates each image file collection by reading metadata and pixel data and mapping the data into the appropriate output file format through a programmable set of connected modules. The Debabeler uses the Java Image I/O Plugin Architecture to read and write a wide variety of common medical image file formats, including ANALYZE, MINC, and most variations of DICOM.

https://github.com/SciKnowEngine/kefed.io

Knowledge engineering software for reasoning with scientific observations and interpretations. The software has three parts: (a) the KEfED model editor - a design editor for creating KEfED models by drawing a flow diagram of an experimental protocol; (b) the KEfED data interface - a spreadsheet-like tool that permits users to enter experimental data pertaining to a specific model; (c) a "neural connection matrix" interface that presents neural connectivity as a table of ordinal connection strengths representing the interpretations of tract-tracing data. This tool also allows the user to view experimental evidence pertaining to a specific connection. The KEfED model is designed to provide a lightweight representation for scientific knowledge that is (a) generalizable, (b) a suitable target for text-mining approaches, (c) relatively semantically simple, and (d) is based on the way that scientist plan experiments and should therefore be intuitively understandable to non-computational bench scientists. The basic idea of the KEfED model is that scientific observations tend to have a common design: there is a significant difference between measurements of some dependent variable under conditions specified by two (or more) values of some independent variable.
