Zebrafish Atlas Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Zebrafish Atlas (RRID:SCR_006722) | Zebrafish Atlas | atlas, data or information resource, reference atlas | Atlas containing 2- and 3-dimensional, anatomical reference slides of the lifespan of the zebrafish to support research and education worldwide. Hematoxylin and eosin histological slides, at various points in the lifespan of the zebrafish, have been scanned at 40x resolution and are available through a virtual slide viewer. 3D models of the organs are reconstructed from plastic tissue sections of embryo and larvae. The size of the zebrafish, which allows sections to fall conveniently within the dimensions of the common 1 x 3 glass slide, makes it possible for this anatomical atlas to become as high resolution as for any vertebrate. That resolution, together with the integration of histology and organ anatomy, will create unique opportunities for comparisons with both smaller and larger model systems that each have their own strengths in research and educational value. The atlas team is working to allow the site to function as a scaffold for collaborative research and educational activity across disciplines and model organisms. The Zebrafish Atlas was created to answer a community call for a comprehensive, web-based, anatomical and pathological atlas of the zebrafish, which has become one of the most widely used vertebrate animal models globally. The experimental strengths of zebrafish as a model system have made it useful for a wide range of investigations addressing the missions of the NIH and NSF. The Zebrafish Atlas provides reference slides for virtual microscopic viewing of the zebrafish using an Internet browser. Virtual slide technology allows the user to choose their own field of view and magnification, and to consult labeled histological sections of zebrafish. We are planning to include a complete set of embryos, larvae, juveniles, and adults from approximately 25 different ages. Future work will also include a variety of comparisons (e.g. normal vs. mutant, normal vs. diseased, multiple stages of development, zebrafish with other organisms, and different types of cancer)., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

UCL Biobank Resource Report Resource Website |
UCL Biobank (RRID:SCR_000517) | UCL Biobank | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | Two University College London (UCL) biobanks, one based at the Royal Free Hospital (RFH) Campus and the other based at Bloomsbury supporting Pathology and the Cancer Institute, will act as physical repositories for collections of biological samples and data from patients consented at UCLH, Partners Hospitals and external sources. This will incorporate collections of existing stored samples and new collections. UCL-RFH BioBank, the physical repository at the Royal Free, presents a unique opportunity to advance medical research through making access to research tissue easier, faster and much more efficient. The BioBank is both a physical repository, with capacity for up to 1 million cryogenically stored samples and a virtual repository for all tissue, cell, plasma, serum, DNA and RNA samples stored throughout UCLP. In particular, samples considered "relevant material", such as tissues and cells, that are licensed by the Human Tissue Authority, can be stored long term. Existing holdings of tissues and cells where appropriate can be transferred to the Physical BioBank at the Royal Free. UCL - Royal Free BioBank provides a flexible approach to banking, allowing the Depositor to pick and choose services that are tailored to fit their requirements. Collaborations arising from publicizing of the existence of the holdings are entirely at the discretion of the depositor, as the facility ensures that access to the deposits remains at the decision of the Depositor/User. UCL Biobank for studying Health and Disease (based at Pathology-Rockefeller building and the UCL-Cancer Institute will support projects principally involved in the study of human disease. The aim is to support primarily, research in the Pathology Department, UCLH and the UCL-Cancer Institute but it will also support other UCLH partners. The biobank will store normal and pathological specimens, surplus to diagnostic requirements, from relevant tissues and bodily fluids. Stored tissues will include; snap-frozen or cryopreserved tissue, formalin-fixed tissue, paraffin-embedded tissues, and slides prepared for histological examination. Tissues will include resection specimens obtained surgically or by needle core biopsy. Bodily fluids will include; whole blood, serum, plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, milk, saliva and buccal smears and cytological specimens such as sputum and cervical smears. Fine needle aspirates obtained from tissues and bodily cavities (e.g. pleura and peritoneum) will also be collected. Where appropriate the biobank will also store separated cells, protein, DNA and RNA isolated from collected tissues and bodily fluids described above. Some of the tissue and aspirated samples will be stored in the diagnostic archive. | tissue, cell, plasma, serum, dna, rna, blood, serum, plasma, urine, cerebral spinal fluid, milk, saliva, buccal smear, sputum, cervical smear, pleura, peritoneum, protein, body fluid, cryopreserved, frozen, snap-frozen, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded, slide, cancer, disease, normal |

The Cancer Genome Atlas Resource Report Resource Website 5000+ mentions |
The Cancer Genome Atlas (RRID:SCR_003193) | TCGA | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | Project exploring the spectrum of genomic changes involved in more than 20 types of human cancer that provides a platform for researchers to search, download, and analyze data sets generated. As a pilot project it confirmed that an atlas of changes could be created for specific cancer types. It also showed that a national network of research and technology teams working on distinct but related projects could pool the results of their efforts, create an economy of scale and develop an infrastructure for making the data publicly accessible. Its success committed resources to collect and characterize more than 20 additional tumor types. Components of the TCGA Research Network: * Biospecimen Core Resource (BCR); Tissue samples are carefully cataloged, processed, checked for quality and stored, complete with important medical information about the patient. * Genome Characterization Centers (GCCs); Several technologies will be used to analyze genomic changes involved in cancer. The genomic changes that are identified will be further studied by the Genome Sequencing Centers. * Genome Sequencing Centers (GSCs); High-throughput Genome Sequencing Centers will identify the changes in DNA sequences that are associated with specific types of cancer. * Proteome Characterization Centers (PCCs); The centers, a component of NCI's Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium, will ascertain and analyze the total proteomic content of a subset of TCGA samples. * Data Coordinating Center (DCC); The information that is generated by TCGA will be centrally managed at the DCC and entered into the TCGA Data Portal and Cancer Genomics Hub as it becomes available. Centralization of data facilitates data transfer between the network and the research community, and makes data analysis more efficient. The DCC manages the TCGA Data Portal. * Cancer Genomics Hub (CGHub); Lower level sequence data will be deposited into a secure repository. This database stores cancer genome sequences and alignments. * Genome Data Analysis Centers (GDACs) - Immense amounts of data from array and second-generation sequencing technologies must be integrated across thousands of samples. These centers will provide novel informatics tools to the entire research community to facilitate broader use of TCGA data. TCGA is actively developing a network of collaborators who are able to provide samples that are collected retrospectively (tissues that had already been collected and stored) or prospectively (tissues that will be collected in the future). | genome, genome sequencing, breast, central nervous system, endocrine, gastrointestinal, gynecologic, head, neck, hematologic, skin, soft tissue, thoracic, urologic, clinical, genomic characterization, analysis, tumor genome, demographic, gene expression, copy number alteration, epigenetic, dna sequence, exome, snp, methylation, mrna, mirna, FASEB list |

This center is supported by SWEGENE with the purpose to organize and construct tissue microarrays (TMA:s) for high throughput molecular pathology research on various kinds of tumors and other diseases. By linking the TMA.s to long-term and complete clinical follow-up data, prognostic and predictive studies will be facilitated. Biobank content: * Approximately 2,4 million paraffin blocks of surgical tissue specimens, * 1,1 million paraffin blocks of tissue samples from autopsies, * 3,8 million histological slides and * 1,6 million cytology slides. At present, the Tissue Microarray Centre includes: * A consecutive series of all invasive breast cancers (n=600) diagnosed in Malmo between 1988 and 1992. * All incident breast cancers within the Malmo Diet and Cancer cohort (n=400). * A subgroup of 600 pre-menopausal primary breast cancers within the nationwide, population-based randomized tamoxifen trial SBII:2. * 180 primary breast cancers from post-menopausal women included in a similar study. * A set of 120 extremely well characterized primary breast cancer samples with a clinical follow-up of 10 years. More than 40 relevant tumor biological parameters have been recorded in this material and it is therefore useful for a first screening of a marker in order to identify associations to other gene products. * 350 renal cell carcinomas (In collaboration with NUS). We provide researchers with state-of-the-art population based tissue microarrays with long-term and complete follow-up data on survival and treatment. With the TMA-technology, valuable biobank material will be preserved, allowing high throughput in-situ analyses of various tumors and other diseases with a minimal waste of tissue. | surgery, autopsy, histology slide, vaginal smear, fine needle aspiration, biopsy, tissue microarray, tumor, disease, cancer, diet, renal cell, kidney |

UK DNA Banking Network (RRID:SCR_010619) | UDBN | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on October 6, 2011. A project to collect, store and study DNA samples from tens of thousands of healthy volunteers and patients with diseases of major public importance. It aims to identify genes that are risk factors for the conditions. The network consists of 13 collections led by different clinicians throughout the UK. At its heart is an archive infrastructure which manages the DNA and the information associated with it. The European Collection of Cell Cultures in Porton Down handles the blood, peripheral blood lymphocytes and EBV-transformed cell lines, while the Centre for Integrated Genomic Medical Research at Manchester University manages the DNA. These banked samples are available to UK and international researchers, who can examine data and set up collaborative work by registering at the DNA Network's website. The conditions for which samples are currently collected and stored are: Acute leukemia, Asthma and eczema, Late onset Alzheimer's disease, Breast cancer, Colorectal cancer, Coronary artery disease, Glomerulonephritis, Hypertension, Age-related macular degeneration, Multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, Type 2 diabetes, Unipolar depression. | alzheimer, gene, dna, peripheral blood lymphocyte, ebv-transformed cell line |
