Medical Biobank Resource Report Resource Website |
Medical Biobank (RRID:SCR_010748) | Medical Biobank | biospecimen repository, material storage repository, service resource, storage service resource | A biobank created from a cross-sectional population of a town in Sweden. The Medical Biobank is mainly based on three cohorts: The V��sterbotten intervention cohort, the MONICA-cohort, and the Mammary screening cohort. These sub-cohorts together are named Northern Sweden Health and Disease Study Cohort (North Health). These sub-cohorts together is named Northern Sweden Health and Disease Study Cohort (North Health). Originally, the V��sterbotten Intervention program (VIP) is a long-term project intended for health promotion of the population of V��sterbotten. All individuals 40, 50 and 60 years of age in the population of the county are invited for screening (approx. 254.000 inhabitants). They are asked to complete a questionnaire concerning various lifestyle factors including diet. They are also asked to donate a separate blood sample to the Medical Biobank for freeze storage for later research purposes. The project started in 1985 and the cohort covered in December 2002, 74,000 individuals, of whom 67,000 had donated blood samples. The material is supplemented with population based samples from a local mammary screening (44,000 sampling occasions, 25,700 unique individuals) and from the Northern Sweden MONICA Project (11,500 sampling occasions, 7,500 unique individuals). The total cohort contains at the moment 85.000 unique individuals with 130.000 sampling occasions. The VIP and MONICA cohorts are population based and the mammary screening cohort are nearly population based. Follow-up: * For the VIP-cohort a second sample (and questionnaire) is collected with a 10-year interval of the individuals within the cohort. * Repeated sampling was performed in the MONICA project in 1999 on individuals participating in 1986, 1990, and 1994. * From 1997 repeated screening has started within the mammary screening program with sampling every second year, in the age group 50-69 years within the county. Biobank content: * Life-Style Questionnaire: Every attending subject is asked to answer a questionnaire, which in the VIP and MONICA-projects includes questions about education, occupation/working conditions, daily habits including smoking, diet, etc and in the mammary screening cohort on reproductive conditions. The dietary questionnaire has been validated twice. The data from the questionnaires, as well as from results from the biobank, are kept in a database for future research purposes. The questionnaires in the VIP and the MONICA project are optically read. * Measurements: Blood Pressure, Anthropometry, Glucose Tolerance Test, Blood Lipids * Blood Samples: The attendants are asked for their willingness to donate a sample of 20-ml whole blood for future analyses. The sample is taken after 4 hours of fasting or in the morning after an over night fasting (most samples) in the VIP and MONICA cohorts. The 20-ml sample is divided into 10 subsamples consisting of 6 plasma, 2 leukocyte (buffy coat) and 2 erythrocyte samples. All material is frozen at -80 degrees C. The organization of the bank is elaborated with specially trained staff and an organization of transport-, storage- and security facilities. For DNA handling a specialized laboratory has been built up. * End-points: Mortality, Cancer events, Cardiovascular events, Other morbidity, Other registry-based follow-up * Registries: At regular intervals the cohort is scanned for incident myocardial infarctions (MI) and stroke utilizing the Northern Sweden MONICA registry and for cancer using the regional cancer registry. In the future the same procedure will be applied also on other registries e.g. diabetes, osteoporosis, dementia. | lifestyle, diet, adult, questionnaire |

GIA Brain Bank Program (RRID:SCR_008877) | biomaterial supply resource, brain bank, material resource, tissue bank | The Brain Bank was developed with two service-minded objectives: provide a free brain autopsy to confirm clinical diagnosis of dementia, and collect, bank and provide brain tissue to qualified scientific researchers studying diseases related to dementia. By working together, patients and researchers can help us understand the origins of neurodegenerative disease and eventually improve the treatment and care of dementia. The clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease can only be confirmed by brain autopsy, or the examination of brain tissue after death. This examination will determine a patients's precise type of dementia. To confirm the diagnosis of Alzheimer's, for example, the brain tissue is examined for amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles by a neuropathologist. The presence of these plaques and tangles will verify the clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. While it is important to us to enroll patients with dementia, it is equally important to enroll people with no dementia. These subjects are termed as controls and the brain tissue from controls will enable researchers to make comparisons to brain tissue from dementia patients. We are seeking donations from individuals who have had an age-related neurodegenerative disease like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Lewy Body or other related dementia. | brain, autopsy, clinical diagnosis, brain donation, late adult human |

JAX Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility (RRID:SCR_007437) | NMU | biomaterial supply resource, material resource, organism supplier | Produce new neurological mouse models that could serve as experimental models for the exploration of basic neurobiological mechanisms and diseases. The impetus for the program resulted from the recognition that: * The value of genomic data would remain limited unless more information about the functionality of its individual components became available. * The task of linking genes to specific behavior would best be accomplished by employing a combination of different approaches. In an effort to complement already existing programs, the Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility decided to use: a random, genome-wide approach to mutagenesis, i.e.N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) as the mutagen; a three-generation back-cross breeding scheme to focus on the detection of recessive mutations; behavioral screens selective for the detection of phenotypes deemed useful for the program goals. The resulting mutant mouse lines have been available to the scientific community for the last five years and over 700 NMF mice have been sent to interested investigators for research; these mutant mouse lines will remain available as frozen embryos (which can be re-derived on request) and can be ordered through the JAX customer service at 1-800-422-6423 (or 207-288-5845). The results of the work of the Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility and that of two other neurogenesis centers, i.e. The Neurogenomics Project at Northwestern University, and the Neuromutagenesis Project of the Tennessee Mouse Genome Consortium, can also be seen at Neuromice.org, a common web site of these three research centers; in addition, information about all mutants produced by these groups has been recorded in MGI. | mouse model, mutant mouse line, mutant mouse, phenodeviant, phenodeviant mouse, heritability, phenotyping, genetic mapping |

Stanford Center for Narcolepsy Resource Report Resource Website |
Stanford Center for Narcolepsy (RRID:SCR_007021) | Stanford Center for Narcolepsy | biomaterial supply resource, brain bank, material resource, tissue bank | The Stanford Center for Narcolepsy was established in the 1980s as part of the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. Today, it is the world leader in narcolepsy research with more than 100 articles on narcolepsy to its name. The Stanford Center for Narcolepsy was the first to report that narcolepsy-cataplexy is caused by hypocretin (orexin) abnormalities in both animal models and humans. Under the direction of Drs. Emmanuel Mignot and Seiji Nishino, the Stanford Center for Narcolepsy today treats several hundred patients with the disorder each year, many of whom participate in various research protocols. Other research protocols are conducted in animal models of narcolespy. We are always looking for volunteers in our narcolepsy research studies. We are presently recruiting narcoleptic patients for genetic studies, drug clinical trials, hypocretin measurement studies in the CSF and functional MRI studies. Monetary gifts to the Center for Narcolepsy are welcome. If you wish to make the ultimate gift, please consider participating in our Brain Donation Program. To advance our understanding of the cause, course, and treatment of narcolepsy, in 2001 Stanford University started a program to obtain human brain tissue for use in narcolepsy research. Donated brains provide an invaluable resource and we have already used previously donated brains to demonstrate that narcolepsy is caused by a lack of a very specific type of cell in the brain, the hypocretin (orexin) neuron. While the brain donations do not directly help the donor, they provide an invaluable resource and a gift to others. The real answers as to what causes or occurrs in the brain when one has narcolepsy will only be definitively understood through the study of brain tissue. Through these precious donations, narcolepsy may eventually be prevented or reversible. We currently are seeking brains from people with narcolepsy (with cataplexy and without), idiopathic hypersomnia and controls or people without a diagnosed sleep disorder of excessive sleepiness. Control brains are quite important to research, as findings must always be compared to tissue of a non-affected person. Friends and loved ones of people who suffer with narcoleps may wish to donate to our program to help fill this very important need.

Chromosome 7 Annotation Project (RRID:SCR_007134) | Chromosome 7 Annotation Project | data or information resource, data repository, database, service resource, storage service resource | Database containing the DNA sequence and annotation of the entire human chromosome 7, encompassing nearly 158 million nucleotides of DNA and 1917 gene structures, are presented; the most up to date collation of sequence, gene, and other annotations from all databases (eg. Celera published, NCBI, Ensembl, RIKEN, UCSC) as well as unpublished data. To generate a higher order description, additional structural features such as imprinted genes, fragile sites, and segmental duplications were integrated at the level of the DNA sequence with medical genetic data, including 440 chromosome rearrangement breakpoints associated with disease. The objective of this project is to generate a comprehensive description of human chromosome 7 to facilitate biological discovery, disease gene research and medical genetic applications. There are over 360 disease-associated genes or loci on chromosome 7. A major challenge ahead will be to represent chromosome alterations, variants, and polymorphisms and their related phenotypes (or lack thereof), in an accessible way. In addition to being a primary data source, this site serves as a weighing station for testing community ideas and information to produce highly curated data to be submitted to other databases such as NCBI, Ensembl, and UCSC. Therefore, any useful data submitted will be curated and shown in this database. All Chromosome 7 genomic clones (cosmids, BACs, YACs) listed in GBrowser and in other data tables are freely distributed. | duplication, gene expression, family, fish, gene, gene annotation, genome, breakpoint, chromosome, chromosome 7, clinical, deletion, disease, dna sequence, human, insertion, inversion, polymorphism, rearrangement, segmental duplication, snp, translocation, annotation, data analysis service, blat, cosmid, bac, yac, biomaterial supply resource, malignant, non malignant, bio.tools |

Deltagen and Lexicon Knockout Mice and Phenotypic Data Resource Resource Report Resource Website |
Deltagen and Lexicon Knockout Mice and Phenotypic Data Resource (RRID:SCR_007312) | Deltagen and Lexicon Knockout Mice | biomaterial supply resource, material resource, organism supplier | Repository of knockout mice that have been extensively characterized. For each mouse line, the contractors will provide not only the mouse line itself, but also detailed, objective data on the impact of the specific gene deletion on the mouse''s phenotype, which includes appearance, health, fitness, behavior, ability to reproduce, and radiological and microscopic data. Such comprehensive information on such a large group of mice has never been available to public sector researchers, and is expected to greatly accelerate efforts to explore gene functions in health and disease. This resource will give researchers unprecedented access to two private collections of knockout mice, providing valuable models for the study of human disease and laying the groundwork for a public, genome-wide library of knockout mice. The contracts also provide for the opportunity for NIH to obtain up to 1500 additional mouse lines and phenotypic data over the next three years, pending available funds. The new contracts provide NIH with irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free licenses to use and distribute to academic and non-profit researchers these lines of knockout mice. The mouse lines, which will be stored in the form of frozen embryos, frozen sperm and frozen embryonic stem (ES) cells, will be delivered to NIH-funded mouse repositories that supply mice to universities, medical schools and research labs all over the world. When researchers express interest in obtaining a certain knockout mouse line, the repositories will send them live mice, frozen embryos, sperm, and/or ES cells, so they can study the mice in their own labs. All data on the mice will be made available to researchers worldwide without restriction in publicly available databases on the Web. This resource will be available for a nominal fee which will be used to cover the cost of handling, shipping and replenishing the stock. Under the license agreements with Deltagen and Lexicon, researchers who receive the knockout mice lines through NIH are free to publish any results from research involving the line and also to seek patent or other intellectual property protection for any of the inventions or discoveries resulting from such research.
