THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 31,2025. Collect, store, and distribute genetic samples from cases and controls of type 1 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy for investigator-driven research into the genetic basis of diabetic nephropathy. As the risk of kidney complications in type 1 diabetes appears to have a considerable genetic component, this study assembled a large data resource for researchers attempting to identify causative genetic variants. The types of data collected allowed traditional case-control testing, a rapid and often powerful approach, and family-based analysis, a robust approach that is not influenced by population substructure.

A European collaborative study to develop and validate new biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. Central in the project is the development of an assay for the measurement of beta amyloid oligomers in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma. In order to validate the assay for beta amyloid oligomers, cerebrospinal fluid and plasma will be repeatedly collected in subjects with Alzheimer's disease, other types of dementia, mild cognitive impairment, and control subjects.

A database integrating data from the bee brain EST sequencing project with data from sequencing and gene research projects from other organisms, primarily the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. The goal of Bee-ESTdb is to provide updated information on the genes of the honey bee, currently using annotation primarily from flies to suggest cellular roles, biological functions, and evolutionary relationships. The site allows searches by sequence ID, EST annotations, Gene Ontology terms, Contig ID and using BLAST. Very nice resource for those interested in comparative genomics of brain. A normalized unidirectional cDNA library was made in the laboratory of Prof. Bento Soares, University of Iowa. The library was subsequently subtracted. Over 20,000 cDNA clones were partially sequenced from the normalized and subtracted libraries at the Keck Center, resulting in 15,311 vector-trimmed, high-quality, sequences with an average read length of 494 bp. and average base-quality of 41. These sequences were assembled into 8966 putatively unique sequences, which were tested for similarity to sequences in the public databases with a variety of BLAST searches. The Clemson University Genomics Institute is the distributor of these public domain cDNA clones. For information on how to purchase an individual clone or the entire collection, please contact www.genome.clemson.edu/orders/ or generobi (at) life.uiuc.edu.

A UK national induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell resource that will create and characterize more than 1000 human iPSCs from healthy and diseased tissue for use in cellular genetic studies. Between 2013 and 2016 they aim to generate iPS cells from over 500 healthy individuals and 500 individuals with genetic disease. They will then use these cells to discover how genomic variation impacts on cellular phenotype and identify new disease mechanisms. Strong links with NHS investigators will ensure that studies on the disease-associated cell lines will be linked to extensive clinical information. Further key features of the project are an open access model of data sharing; engagement of the wider clinical genetics community in selecting patient samples; and provision of dedicated laboratory space for collaborative cell phenotyping and differentiation.

The IBC Research Foundation BioBank is a secure, privacy-protected collection of biological specimens from ibc-diagnosed patients (cases, and, unlike the former George Washington University IBC Registry, ibc patients who have died, those who are under legal age, and those living but unable to make decisions for themselves, may be consented to participate in the IBC Research Foundation BioBank by their authorized representative) and from those not diagnosed with ibc (controls), volunteering following a consent decision making process, and signing an Informed Consent. Clinical Data and a comprehensive questionnaire will also be obtained for those diagnosed with ibc. The Inflammatory Breast Cancer Research Foundation (ibcRF) has established a BioBank and Clinical Database. The BioBank contains non-tumor RNA and DNA, tumor RNA and DNA, blocks and slides from diagnostic pathology, and medical records describing clinical and pathologic findings at diagnosis.
