Procure and distribute human tissue and other biological samples in support of basic, translational, and clinical cancer research at the University of Minnesota. The TPF is a centralized resource with standardized patient consent, sample collection, processing, storage, quality control, distribution, and electronic record maintenance. Since the 1996 inception of the TPF, over 61,000 tissue samples including well-preserved samples of malignant and benign tumors, organ-matched normal tissue, and other types of diseased tissues, have been collected from surgical specimens obtained at the University of Minnesota Medical Center-Fairview (UMMC-F) University Campus. Surgical pathologists are intellectually engaged in TPF functions, providing researchers with specimen-oriented medical consultation to facilitate research productivity. Prior to surgery, TPF personnel identify and consent patients for procurement of tissue, blood, urine, saliva, and ascites fluid. Within the integrated working environment of the surgical pathology laboratory, freshly obtained tissues not needed for diagnosis are selected and provided by pathologists to TPF personnel. Tissue samples are then assigned an independent code and processed. TPF staff can also work with researchers to individualize the procurement of tissues to fit specific research needs.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 11, 2023. The Specimen Resource Locator is a database to help researchers locate human specimens (tissue, serum, DNA/RNA, other specimens) for cancer research. It includes tissue banks and tissue procurement systems with access to normal, benign, precancerous and cancerous human tissue from a variety of organs. Researchers specify the types of specimens, number of cases, preservation methods and associated data they require. The Locator will then search the database and return a list of tissue resources most likely to meet their requirements. When no match is obtained, the researcher is referred to the NCI Tissue Expediter ([email protected]). The Tissue expediter is a scientist who can help researchers identify appropriate resources and/or appropriate collaborators.

The NSABP (National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project) Tissue Bank is the central repository of tissue samples (stained and unstained slides, tissue blocks, and frozen tissue specimens) collected from clinical trials conducted by the NSABP. The main scientific aim of the NSABP Division of Pathology is to develop clinical context-specific prognostic markers and predictive markers that predict response to or benefit from specific therapeutic modality. To achieve this aim, the laboratory collects the tumor and adjacent normal tissues from cancer patients enrolled into the NSABP trials through its membership institutions, and maintain these valuable materials with clinical follow-up information and distribute them to qualified approved investigators. Currently, specimens from more than 90,000 cases of breast and colon cancer are stored and maintained at the bank. Paraffin embedded tumor specimens are available from NSABP trials. We currently do not bank frozen tissues. All blocks are from patients enrolled in prospective NSABP treatment protocols and complete clinical follow up information as well as demographic information is available. Depending on the project, unstained tissue sections of 4-micrometer thickness, tissue microarrays, or stained slides are provided to the investigators in a blinded study format. Any investigators with novel projects that conform to the research goals of NSABP may apply for the tissue. Please refer to the NSABP Tissue Bank Policy to determine if your project conforms to these goals. Priority is given to NSABP membership institutions who regularly submit tissue blocks.
