National multi-center study aimed at understanding more about diabetes among children and young adults in the United States less than 20 years of age in six geographically dispersed populations that encompass the ethnic diversity of the United States. SEARCH has been helping to find answers about the types of diabetes, its complications, and how having diabetes affects the lives of children and young adults. There are more than 20,000 study participants representing all different racial and ethnic backgrounds who have helped SEARCH determine the extent of diabetes in the community and its impact on different populations. The SEARCH Study invites Investigators interested in childhood Diabetes Research to collaborate on matters of interest to the field of childhood Diabetes.

Publications from a multi-center, longitudinal, observational study examining the risk factors associated with the long-term complications of type 1 diabetes. The study began in 1994 and follows the 1441 participants previously enrolled in the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT), http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/dm/pubs/control/index.aspx. The primary aim of EDIC is to examine the long-term effects of conventional vs. intensive diabetes treatment received during the DCCT on the subsequent development and progression of microvascular, neuropathic and cardiovascular complications. This involves studying the influence of genetic factors and other factors such as HbA1c, blood pressure, lipid levels, and treatment modalities on the development and progression of these complications. Annual or biennial measurements (using DCCT methods, standardized protocols and central laboratories) of vascular events, albumin excretion, GFR, ECG, ankle-brachial BP index, serum lipids and HbA1c allows the following analyses: 1) continuation of intention-to-treat analyses to determine long-term effects of prior separation of glycemic levels; 2) risk factors for macrovascular outcomes; 3) correlation of progression of micro- and macrovascular outcomes. The current updated version of the EDIC Protocol is available for download. EDIC is made up of 28 clinical centers, one data coordinating center and one clinical coordinating center.

Standardization of c-peptide by calibrating C-peptide measurement to a reference method can increase comparability between laboratories. The C-peptide standardization program is supported to establish reliability in results and facilitate the conduct of international clinical trials. For c-peptide, purified or processed material shows significant matrix effects and cannot be used for calibration. The C-peptide program has evaluated the use of single donor and pooled specimens for use by manufacturers in the calibration of these assays and determined that this strategy will reduce C-peptide variability among different assay methods. The standardization process through manufacturer re-calibration is ongoing.

A drug discovery company focused on small-molecule drugs targeting G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest family of druggable targets. Heptares creates new medicines targeting previously undruggable or challenging GPCRs, a superfamily of receptors linked to many diseases. They are pioneering a structure-based drug design approach to GPCRs, leveraging proprietary technologies for protein stabilization, structure determination, and fragment-based discovery. Their partners include Cubist, MorphoSys, AstraZeneca, MedImmune and Takeda. Their objective is to build a broad pipeline of novel medicines to transform the treatment of serious diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, diabetes, ADHD and chronic migraine.

http://www.endo-society.org/

Founded in 1916, The Endocrine Society is the world''s oldest, largest, and most active organization devoted to research on hormones and the clinical practice of endocrinology. The Society works to foster a greater understanding of endocrinology amongst the general public and practitioners of complementary medical disciplines and to promote the interests of all endocrinologists at the national scientific research and health policy levels of government. The Endocrine Society publishes four world-renowned journals and a monthly news magazine, holds scientific conferences, provides educational programs for physicians, issues clinical practice guidelines, promotes careers in endocrinology, and advocates for appropriate funding of scientific research in endocrinology and public policies that support the practice of clinical endocrinology. The Hormone Health Network, the Society''s public education affiliate, is a leading source of hormone-related health information for the public, physicians, allied health professionals and the media. The Endocrine Society is an international body with more than 15,000 members from over 100 countries. The Society''s diverse membership represents medicine, molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, physiology, genetics, immunology, education, industry and allied health fields. Members of The Endocrine Society represent the full range of disciplines associated with endocrinologists: clinicians, researchers, educators, fellows and students, industry professionals and health professionals who are involved in the field of endocrinology. These professionals are dedicated to the research and treatment of the full range of endocrine disorders: diabetes, reproduction, infertility, osteoporosis, thyroid disease, obesity/lipids, growth hormone, pituitary tumors, and adrenal insufficiency.

Communication network of current and potential biomedical research investigators and technical personnel from traditionally under-served communities: African American, Hispanic American, American Indian, Alaskan Native, Native Hawaiian, and other Pacific Islanders. The major objective of the network is to encourage and facilitate participation of members of underrepresented racial and ethnic minority groups in the conduct of biomedical research in the fields of diabetes, endocrinology, metabolism, digestive diseases, nutrition, kidney, urologic and hematologic diseases. A second objective is to encourage and enhance the potential of the underrepresented minority investigators in choosing a biomedical research career in these fields. An important component of this network is promotion of two-way communications between network members and the NIDDK.
