Group of 10 academic laboratories provide pancreatic islets of cGMP-quality to eligible investigators for use in FDA approved, IRB-approved transplantation protocols in which isolated human islets are transplanted into qualified patients afflicted with type 1 diabetes mellitus; optimize the harvest, purification, function, storage, and shipment of islets while developing tests that characterize the quality and predict the effectiveness of islets transplanted into patients with diabetes mellitus; and provide pancreatic islets for basic science studies. The centers are electronically linked through an Administrative and Bioinformatics Coordinating Center (ABCC). The ABCC manages a system with objectively defined criteria that establishes the order of priority for islet distribution. It also provides database and other informatics to track the utilization of pancreata and all distributed clinical grade islets for transplant and basic research, and supports the Islet Cell Resource Centers Consortium so that the research community has a single entry point to the program. Qualified researchers from domestic institutions may request islets by submitting a written application to the director of the ABCC. The ICRs will distribute Islets as appropriate for either clinical or basic science protocol use to eligible investigators who have received a favorable review and subsequent approval by the ICR Steering Committee (SC). The Administrative and Bioinformatics Coordinating Center (ABCC) manages the distribution according to a priority list. The ABCC will give preference to investigators who have peer-reviewed, NIH-funded research support.

Repository of biospecimen and phenotype data collected from Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis cases and controls recruited at six sites throughout North America that are available to the scientific community. Phenotyping is performed using a standardized protocol, and lymphoblastoid cell lines are established for each subject. Phenotype data for each subject are collected by the Consortium's Data Coordinating Center (DCC), and phenotype data for all subjects with DNA samples are available. The resulting DNA samples have already been utilized by the Consortium to complete various association studies, including genome-wide association studies using dense genotyping arrays. Researchers can obtain DNA samples and phenotype, genotype, and pedigree data through the Data Repository. GWAS data must be requested through dbGAP. The IBDGC is involved with independent genetic research studies and actively works with members of the IBD and genetic communities on collaborative projects. They are also members of the International IBD Genetics Consortium. Phenotype Tools: The Consortium Phenotype Committee, led by Dr. Hillary Steinhart designed and validated paper forms to collect extensive phenotype data on Crohn's Disease and ulcerative colitis. Consortium phenotype tools are available for use by non-Consortium members.

To carry out this mission, NDDIC works closely with a coordinating panel of representatives from Federal agencies, voluntary organizations on the national level, and professional groups to identify and respond to informational needs about digestive diseases. NDDIC provides the following informational products and services: * Response to inquiries about digestive diseases - ranging from information about available patient and professional education materials to statistical data. By phone (8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. eastern time, M-F), fax, mail, and email. * Publications about specific digestive diseases, provided free of copyright, in varying reading levels. Available online or as booklets and brochures. NDDIC also sends publications to health fairs and community events. * Referrals to health professionals through the National Library of Medicine''''s MEDLINEplus includes a consumer-friendly listing of organizations that will assist you in your search for physicians and other health professionals. * Exhibits at professional meetings specific to digestive diseases, as well as cross-cutting professional meetings. NDDIC exhibits at nine professional meetings each year, including Digestive Diseases Week, American College of Gastroenterology, Society of Gastroenterology Nurses and Associates, American Academy of Family Physicians, American Academy of Physician Assistants, American Nurses Association, and the National Conference for Nurse Practitioners.

A tool for performing multi-cluster gene functional enrichment analyses on large scale data (microarray experiments with many time-points, cell-types, tissue-types, etc.). It facilitates co-analysis of multiple gene lists and yields as output a rich functional map showing the shared and list-specific functional features. The output can be visualized in tabular, heatmap or network formats using built-in options as well as third-party software. It uses the hypergeometric test to obtain functional enrichment achieved via the gene list enrichment analysis option available in ToppGene.
