THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 29, 2016. The Adenoma Polyp Tissue Bank (APTB) receives whole blood from patients enrolled in the Prevention of Sporadic Colorectal Adenomas with Celecoxib clinical trial. We have reached our accrual on blood submissions, so we will no longer be receiving blood specimens The objectives of this trial are as follows: A. To determine the efficacy and safety of celecoxib versus placebo in preventing the occurrence of newly detected colorectal adenomas in subjects at increased risk for colorectal carcinoma. In addition to incidence, other established risk factors will be evaluated for their association with occurrence of new colorectal adenomas, including cancer family history and adenoma size, histopathologic grade, multiplicity and location. Primary assessment of treatment efficacy will be the reduction in the number of subjects with adenomas at colonoscopy after Year 1 and Year 3 of study drug use. Secondary assessments of treatment efficacy will be 1) the number of adenomas 2) the histopathologic grade of adenomas and 3) the size of adenomas, also measured after one year and three years of study drug use. These factors will be incorporated into a risk model for predicting adenoma occurrence and response to celecoxib. B. To determine the efficacy of celecoxib versus placebo in modulating one or more of a panel of biomarkers for colorectal cancer at the cellular and molecular level sampled in a subset of subjects at selective sites at baseline and after Year 1 and Year 3 of study drug use. These biomarkers will include measurements of aberrant crypt foci (ACF), proliferation (index and crypt distribution), apoptosis (index and crypt distribution), COX expression and activity. If modulation of one or more mucosal biomarkers occur, we will explore whether it correlates with the development of incident colorectal neoplasia (adenomas/carcinomas), thereby attempting to validate the surrogacy of that biomarker. C. To develop a specimen bank. Serum and white blood cells are isolated from whole blood and adenoma tissue blocks and slides are banked. Banked specimens will become available for use in correlative science studies at a later point. This project began in 1999 and will be extended through 2006. The lead principal investigator is Monica M. Bertagnolli, MD, Brigham and Women''s Hospital, Boston, MA, and the APTB Director is Scott Jewell, Ph.D., Department of Pathology, The Ohio State University. The APTB is supported by the NIH, NCI Division of Cancer Prevention, in connection with the Strang Cancer Prevention Center, Cornell University, New York., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

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.

A biorepository for HIV-infected human biospecimens from a wide spectrum of HIV-related or associated diseases, including cancer, and from appropriate HIV-negative controls. The ACSR has formalin-fixed paraffin embedded biospecimens, fresh frozen biospecimens, malignant cell suspensions, fine needle aspirates, and cell lines from patients with HIV-related malignancies. It also contains serum, plasma, urine, bone marrow, cervical and anal specimens, saliva, semen, and multi-site autopsy speicmens from patients with HIV-related malignancies including those who have participated in clinical trials. The ACSR has an associated databank that contains prognostic, staging, outcome and treatment data on patients from whom tissues were obtained. The ACSR database contains more than 300,000 individual biospecimens with associated clinical information. Biospecimens are entered into the ACSR database by processing type, disease category, and number of cases defined by disease category.

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.

http://www.nsabp.pitt.edu/NSABP_Pathology.asp

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.

http://www.rhesusbase.org/drugDisc/CAM.jsp

OKCAM (Ontology-based Knowledgebase for Cell Adhesion Molecules) is an online resource for human genes known or predicted to be related to the processes of cell adhesion. These genes include members of the cadherin, immunoglobulin/FibronectinIII (IgFn), integrin, neurexin, neuroligin, and catenin families. Totally 496 human CAM genes were compiled and annotated. We have mapped these genes onto a novel cell adhesion molecule ontology (CAMO) that provides a hierarchical description of cell adhesion molecules and their functions. It is intended to provide a means to facilitate better and better understanding of the global and specific properties of CAMs through their genomic features, regulatory modes, expression patterns and disease associations become clearer. You may browse by CAM ontology, Chromosomes and Full Gene list.
