JEPETTO (RRID:SCR_005909) | JEPETTO | software resource | A Cytoscape plugin that performs integrated gene set analysis using information from interaction, pathways and processes databases. The plugin integrates information from three separate web servers specializing in enrichment analysis, pathways expansion and topological matching. It uses the TopoGSA server to identify topological analogies between the user selected gene set and the known pathways and processes. TopoGSA finds the most similar biological mechanism using the topological features of the interaction network of a user selected gene set. It is also able to suggest genes related to the query gene set using two pathway analysis servers EnrichNet and PathExpand. Both these servers are using a different topological matching algorithms that extends the query gene set with genes from the pathway databases. This integration substantially simplifies the analysis of user gene sets and the interpretation of the results. | gene set enrichment analysis, topological analysis, interaction network, java, enrichment analysis, functional analysis, gene prioritization, integrated analysis, network analysis, interaction, pathway, process, topology, gene |

Danish Multiple Sclerosis Biobank (RRID:SCR_000089) | Danish MS Biobank | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 31,2025. We have collected DNA for more than 15 years, and today we have DNA from more than 1,800 Danish MS patients and 1,200 controls, all kept in the Danish Multiple Sclerosis Biobank in DMSC. In order to increase the sample size for genetic testing, we have participated in the Nordic MS Genetic Network since 1994, and today the Nordic material consists of more than 6,000 MS cases and 6,000 controls. The research in DMSC is focused on the candidate gene approaches and the genetic influence on the differences in treatment response. We are part of the IMSGC (International Multiple Sclerosis Genetic Consortium) and the Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium (WTCCC), where 23 research groups from 15 countries are performing the largest set of MS genome-wide association study (GWAS), genotyping 11,000 cases and 11,000 controls using 500,000 SNP chip. Primary results have elucidated associations to more than 100 gene variations (SNPs). Following this collaboration we are joining the Immunochip Consortium, where 1,000 Danish cases and 1,000 Danish controls participate in a large scale genetic analysis, investigating best genes/regions/SNPs in MS together with other international MS research groups and 9 other autoimmune diseases research groups, looking for shared autoimmune genes. The risk of MS has been increasing over the last 50 years, especially among women older than 40 years. On this background we have initiated a project looking at aspects of gender differences, including different treatment responses. Furthermore, we have initiated a large-scale vitamin D project, investigating gene variations within the vitamin D pathway, and the importance of vitamin D in clinical and immunological disease activity. In addition, we have collected more than 800 questionnaires from MS patients dealing in detail with lifestyle and environmental exposure for a project studying gene-environmental interactions. | dna, multiple sclerosis, control, autoimmune disease, gene, normal control, lifestyle, environment, genetics, genotyping |

ADA GENNID Study Resource Report Resource Website |
ADA GENNID Study (RRID:SCR_000527) | GENNID Study | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | The purpose of the American Diabetes Association (ADA), GENNID Study (Genetics of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, NIDDM) is to establish a national database and cell repository consisting of information and genetic material from families with well-documented NIDDM. The GENNID Study will provide investigators with the information and samples necessary to conduct genetic linkage studies and locate the genes for NIDDM. Non-Hispanic white, Hispanic, African-American, and Japanese-American multiplex NIDDM families, with a minimum of one affected sib-pair, are being collected by the eight Harold Rifkin Family Acquisition Centers. Detailed family and medical histories are obtained from all participants. Family members with diabetes have fasting blood samples drawn, while nondiabetic family members have an oral glucose tolerance test and, when possible, insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion measurements by frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance testing or euglycemic insulin clamp. Lymphoblastoid cell lines are established for all participants. DNA samples and extensive phenotypic data are available from the American Diabetes Association's GENNID study (Genetics of NIDDM). GENNID has collected detailed family histories and a broad array of data on 170 large pedigrees, all of which contain at least one affected sib pair, with a total of 650 affected individuals and approximately 1,200 total subjects. Included are approximately 65 Caucasian, 60 Hispanic, 25 African American, and 20 Japanese American pedigrees. In addition, GENNID also contains DNA and data on 1,000 additional affected sib pairs in each of three groups, African American, Caucasian, and Hispanic. DNA and phenotypic data, including race, gender and age, are available for all members of the pedigrees. The data set includes multiple metabolic factors, including carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, and body size measures, as well as lifestyle variables obtained by questionnaire (e.g., employment, exercise, etc.). The GENNID resource is ideally suited for genetic linkage and association studies as well as SNP discovery and typing. Investigators interested in obtaining the DNA samples and/or data will need to submit a proposal to the Association that addresses the genetics of type 2 diabetes. | genetic linkage study, gene, caucasian, hispanic, african-american, japanese-american, phenotypic data, blood, ebv-transformed, lymphoblastoid cell line, dna, b-lymphocyte, non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, affected sibling, clinical data |

KI Biobank - TwinGene Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
KI Biobank - TwinGene (RRID:SCR_006006) | TwinGene | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | In collaboration with GenomeEUtwin, the TwinGene project investigates the importance of quantitative trait loci and environmental factors for cardiovascular disease. It is well known that genetic factors are of considerable importance for some familial lipid syndromes and that Type A Behavior pattern and increased lipid levels infer increased risk for cardiovascular disease. It is furthermore known that genetic factors are of importance levels of blood lipid biomarkers. The interplay of genetic and environmental effects for these risk factors in a normal population is less well understood and virtually unknown for the elderly. In the TwinGene project twins born before 1958 are contacted to participate. Health and medication data are collected from self-reported questionnaires, and blood sampling material is mailed to the subject who then contacts a local health care center for blood sampling and a health check-up. In the simple health check-up, height, weight, circumference of waist and hip, and blood pressure are measured. Blood is sampled for DNA extraction, serum collection and clinical chemistry tests of C-reactive protein, total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL and LDL cholesterol, apolipo��protein A1 and B, glucose and HbA1C. The TwinGene cohort contains more than 10000 of the expected final number of 16000 individuals. Molecular genetic techniques are being used to identify Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) for cardiovascular disease and biomarkers in the TwinGene participants. Genome-wide linkage and association studies are ongoing. DZ twins have been genome-scanned with 1000 STS markers and a subset of 300 MZ twins have been genome-scanned with Illumina 317K SNP platform. Association of positional candidate SNPs arising from these genomscans are planned. The TwinGene project is associated with the large European collaboration denoted GenomEUtwin (www.genomeutwin.org, see below) which since 2002 has aimed at gathering genetic data on twins in Europe and setting up the infrastructure needed to enable pooling of data and joint analyses. It has been the funding source for obtaining the genome scan data.
