https://www.ddbj.nig.ac.jp/jga/index-e.html

A service for permanent archiving and sharing of all types of personally identifiable genetic and phenotypic data resulting from biomedical research projects. The JGA contains exclusive data collected from individuals whose consent agreements authorize data release only for specific research use or to bona fide researchers. Strict protocols govern how information is managed, stored and distributed by the JGA. Once processed, all data are encrypted. The JGA accepts only de-identified data approved by JST-NBDC. The JGA implements access-granting policy whereby the decisions of who will be granted access to the data resides with the JST-NBDC. After data submission the JGA team will process the data into databases and archive the original data files. The accepted data types include manufacturer-specific raw data formats from the array-based and new sequencing platforms. The processed data such as the genotype and structural variants or any summary level statistical analyses from the original study authors are stored in databases. The JGA also accepts and distributes any phenotype data associated with the samples. For other human biological data, please contact the NBDC human data ethical committee.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 31,2025. The projected cluster includes the LBIs for Applied Cancer Research, Clinical Oncology and Photodynamic Therapy, Gynecology and Gynecologic Oncology, Stem Cell Transplantation and Surgical Oncology. The aim of the projected cluster Translational Oncology is the cooperative investigation of genetic and molecular biological characteristics of the tumor cells involved in minimal residual disease (MRD) in vitro and translation of the experimental and diagnostic results into the clinical practice involving therapeutic modalities with the newest generation of antitumoral drugs. Minimal residual disease is the designation for the occurrence of a low number of tumor cells remaining clinically undetected following curative therapy that give rise to tumor relapses. MRD is a central question in cancer therapy, since a major subpopulation of patients which underwent curative resection and therapy ultimately relapse and would have received more aggressive adjuvant therapy, provided that residual disease had been clearly proven. Otherwise low-risk patients would have not been treated aggressively in an adjuvant setting. MRD can be detected by methods in bone marrow or by extremely sensitive PCR (polymerase-chain-reaction)-based methods in peripheral blood. PCR-based methods allow for the characterization of tumor-specific gene expression in circulating tumor cells and thereby provide additional information in regard to malignity of cells and prognosis. The different participating institutions have extensive experience in patient care, organization of clinical studies and laboratory investigation. In particular, expert knowledge in stem cell transplantation and histological detection of MRD, multicentric clinical testing of new anticancer drugs, specialized treatment of various selected tumor entities such as neuroendocrine tumors, gene expression analysis of circulating tumor cells and tumor signatures, and in vitro characterization of chemosensitivity as well as tumor cell biology have been acquired at the individual LBIs in the past and are complementary to each other to be combined in a larger cluster structure. The detection of circulating tumor cells will be supported by ongoing EU (OVCAD OVarian CAncer Diagnosis) and GenAU projects aiming at identification of ovarian cancer cells in the blood. The assessment of methylated DNA sequences (suppressor genes) in peripheral blood as an indicator of MRD can be performed with the help of OncoLab Diagnostics GmbH. Cooperative action in this cluster, using a common tumor bank/clinical data collection and the combined clinical and experimental efforts are the base for the execution of the presented MRD project.

International consortium of six centers assembled to participate in the development and implementation of studies to identify infectious agents, dietary factors, or other environmental agents, including psychosocial factors, that trigger type 1 diabetes in genetically susceptible people. The coordinating centers recruit and enroll subjects, obtaining informed consent from parents prior to or shortly after birth, genetic and other types of samples from neonates and parents, and prospectively following selected neonates throughout childhood or until development of islet autoimmunity or T1DM. The study tracks child diet, illnesses, allergies and other life experiences. A blood sample is taken from children every 3 months for 4 years. After 4 years, children will be seen every 6 months until the age of 15 years. Children are tested for 3 different autoantibodies. The study will compare the life experiences and blood and stool tests of the children who get autoantibodies and diabetes with some of those children who do not get autoantibodies or diabetes. In this way the study hopes to find the triggers of T1DM in children with higher risk genes.

http://www.wriwindber.org/wriwindber/Platforms/TissueBanking.aspx

Under the direction of Stella Somiari, Ph.D., the tissue bank at Windber Research Institute acquires and banks large numbers of high quality and well annotated normal and diseased tissue specimens. These specimens are obtained from fully informed and consented donors using Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved protocols and are accompanied by detailed clinical, family history and demographic information. The tissue bank has established Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for tissue acquisition, handling, processing, packaging and shipping. All collaborators at participating clinics/medical centers utilize these procedures to ensure that the integrity of the specimen is maintained. Tissue types in our collection include plasma, serum, tissue embedded in optimum cutting temperature (OCT), formalin fixed paraffin embedded, and flash frozen. We also isolate and bank tissue derived products such as DNA, RNA and protein for research. Very stringent SOPs are in place for the process of extraction of these tissue-derived products and for quality control/quality assurance (QA/QC). The WRI tissue bank currently has 5 isothermal freezers each with the capacity to store 36,000 specimens. For all specimens obtained from surgical procedures, routine histology is performed to obtain representative Hematoxylin and Eosin (H & E) stained sections for imaging/archiving. All H & E sections are imaged on the Trestle SL-50 imaging system and these images are available online to designated collaborative sites. A certified pathologist verifies all tissue specimens and WRI has telepathology capabilities, which can also be utilized for pathology verification when a second pathologist opinion is required to confirm specimen diagnosis. Other uses of the telepathology capabilities include the verification of Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM) sections (by pathologist) to ensure the correct areas are captured for research. The telepathology system at WRI is the Trestle Corporation's Medmicro system, which permits the pathologist to remotely view, navigate and share images at sub-micron resolution over standard internet connections in real-time.

The OSU Comprehensive Cancer Center Leukemia Tissue Bank Shared Resource (LTBSR) facilitates the successful translation of basic leukemia research to the clinical setting via an extensive repository of tissue samples and accompanying pathologic, cytogenetic and clinical data for ready correlation of clinical and biological results. The LTBSR, which is an NCI-sponsored biorepository, has more than 40,000 vials of cryopreserved viable cells and 13,000 vials of matched frozen plasma and/or serum samples from more than 4,000 patients treated for leukemia and other malignancies. Committed to furthering translational research efforts for OSUCCC - James members and the cancer research community, the LTBSR provides investigators with training and technical support as well as procurement, processing, storage, retrieval and distribution of clinical research materials. In many cases, the LTBSR serves as the central processing lab for multi-site trials in which the principal investigator is an OSUCCC - James member. The LTBSR's goals are to: * Provide a central collection, processing and a state-of-the-art repository for samples collected from leukemia patients treated on OSUCCC - James protocols, and * Provide materials to investigators involved in collaborative studies with OSU, who examine relevant cellular and molecular properties of leukemia and correlate these properties with clinical or population-based outcomes.
