Database that provides access to biological systems and their component genes, proteins, and small molecules, as well as literature describing those biosystems and other related data throughout Entrez. A biosystem, or biological system, is a group of molecules that interact directly or indirectly, where the grouping is relevant to the characterization of living matter. BioSystem records list and categorize components, such as the genes, proteins, and small molecules involved in a biological system. The companion FLink tool, in turn, allows you to input a list of proteins, genes, or small molecules and retrieve a ranked list of biosystems. A number of databases provide diagrams showing the components and products of biological pathways along with corresponding annotations and links to literature. This database was developed as a complementary project to (1) serve as a centralized repository of data; (2) connect the biosystem records with associated literature, molecular, and chemical data throughout the Entrez system; and (3) facilitate computation on biosystems data. The NCBI BioSystems Database currently contains records from several source databases: KEGG, BioCyc (including its Tier 1 EcoCyc and MetaCyc databases, and its Tier 2 databases), Reactome, the National Cancer Institute's Pathway Interaction Database, WikiPathways, and Gene Ontology (GO). It includes several types of records such as pathways, structural complexes, and functional sets, and is desiged to accomodate other record types, such as diseases, as data become available. Through these collaborations, the BioSystems database facilitates access to, and provides the ability to compute on, a wide range of biosystems data. If you are interested in depositing data into the BioSystems database, please contact them.

A biobank created from a cross-sectional population of a town in Sweden. The Medical Biobank is mainly based on three cohorts: The V��sterbotten intervention cohort, the MONICA-cohort, and the Mammary screening cohort. These sub-cohorts together are named Northern Sweden Health and Disease Study Cohort (North Health). These sub-cohorts together is named Northern Sweden Health and Disease Study Cohort (North Health). Originally, the V��sterbotten Intervention program (VIP) is a long-term project intended for health promotion of the population of V��sterbotten. All individuals 40, 50 and 60 years of age in the population of the county are invited for screening (approx. 254.000 inhabitants). They are asked to complete a questionnaire concerning various lifestyle factors including diet. They are also asked to donate a separate blood sample to the Medical Biobank for freeze storage for later research purposes. The project started in 1985 and the cohort covered in December 2002, 74,000 individuals, of whom 67,000 had donated blood samples. The material is supplemented with population based samples from a local mammary screening (44,000 sampling occasions, 25,700 unique individuals) and from the Northern Sweden MONICA Project (11,500 sampling occasions, 7,500 unique individuals). The total cohort contains at the moment 85.000 unique individuals with 130.000 sampling occasions. The VIP and MONICA cohorts are population based and the mammary screening cohort are nearly population based. Follow-up: * For the VIP-cohort a second sample (and questionnaire) is collected with a 10-year interval of the individuals within the cohort. * Repeated sampling was performed in the MONICA project in 1999 on individuals participating in 1986, 1990, and 1994. * From 1997 repeated screening has started within the mammary screening program with sampling every second year, in the age group 50-69 years within the county. Biobank content: * Life-Style Questionnaire: Every attending subject is asked to answer a questionnaire, which in the VIP and MONICA-projects includes questions about education, occupation/working conditions, daily habits including smoking, diet, etc and in the mammary screening cohort on reproductive conditions. The dietary questionnaire has been validated twice. The data from the questionnaires, as well as from results from the biobank, are kept in a database for future research purposes. The questionnaires in the VIP and the MONICA project are optically read. * Measurements: Blood Pressure, Anthropometry, Glucose Tolerance Test, Blood Lipids * Blood Samples: The attendants are asked for their willingness to donate a sample of 20-ml whole blood for future analyses. The sample is taken after 4 hours of fasting or in the morning after an over night fasting (most samples) in the VIP and MONICA cohorts. The 20-ml sample is divided into 10 subsamples consisting of 6 plasma, 2 leukocyte (buffy coat) and 2 erythrocyte samples. All material is frozen at -80 degrees C. The organization of the bank is elaborated with specially trained staff and an organization of transport-, storage- and security facilities. For DNA handling a specialized laboratory has been built up. * End-points: Mortality, Cancer events, Cardiovascular events, Other morbidity, Other registry-based follow-up * Registries: At regular intervals the cohort is scanned for incident myocardial infarctions (MI) and stroke utilizing the Northern Sweden MONICA registry and for cancer using the regional cancer registry. In the future the same procedure will be applied also on other registries e.g. diabetes, osteoporosis, dementia.

Software system to assist computational neuroscientists in interacting with databases of models and with neural simulation packages such as GENESIS. There are three components in the system: a user interface, a database server, and a global registry and repository. The collection of software tools with a graphical user interface enables users to interact over the WWW with databases of models and data. It provides facilities for searching multiple remote databases for model components based on various criteria; visualizing the characteristics of the components retrieved; creating new components, either from scratch or derived from existing models; combining components into new models; linking models to experimental data as well as online publications; and interacting with simulation packages such as GENESIS to simulate the new constructs. Although the initial version uses GENESIS as the simulator, the design permits the use of multiple simulation systems, with or without the use of a database. This allows modeling at multiple levels of scale from the molecular level, through the subcellular (e.g. ion channel), single cell, and network levels, to the systems level (e.g. relating models to fMRI studies). The system is intended to help users create and organize models and to interact with databases of models and neuronal simulation software. More specifically, the Modeler's Workspace is designed to provide the following: * Search and retrieval facilities for interacting with databases of models and other information; * Facilities for creating, editing and visualizing the characteristics of models; * Facilities for combining model components together and translating them into formats suitable for simulation systems such as GENESIS and NEURON; * Facilities for managing a personal database where a user can collect models and other objects; and * Collaboration facilities for connecting one or more users together, to allow them to simultaneously edit objects in a shared database and communicate with each other using real-time chat. The Modeler's Workspace is written in Java for portability and extensibility. It is modular in design and uses pluggable components for supporting different data formats, which means that new data types can be supported by loading an appropriate plug-in. To increase the probability that the Modeler's Workspace will be compatible with future databases and tools, they are using the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) as the interchange format for communicating with databases.
