Open access resource for human proteins. Used to search for specific genes or proteins or explore different resources, each focusing on particular aspect of the genome-wide analysis of the human proteins: Tissue, Brain, Single Cell, Subcellular, Cancer, Blood, Cell line, Structure and Interaction. Swedish-based program to map all human proteins in cells, tissues, and organs using integration of various omics technologies, including antibody-based imaging, mass spectrometry-based proteomics, transcriptomics, and systems biology. All the data in the knowledge resource is open access to allow scientists both in academia and industry to freely access the data for exploration of the human proteome.

Software for automatic detection of absolute segmental copy numbers and genotype status in complex cancer genome profiles measured by single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays. The method is based on pattern recognition of segmented and smoothed copy number and allelic imbalance profiles. The method performs well even for poor-quality data, low tumor content, and highly rearranged tumor genomes.

Curated series of expression data for 159 tumors from which RNA could be collected in sufficient amounts and quality for analysis from breast cancer patients. Tissue material was collected from all breast cancer patients receiving surgery at Karolinska Hospital from 1994-1996.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 6th, 2022. The biobank comprises paraffin blocks of surgical and autopsy tissue samples and corresponding histological slides as well as cytological material consisting of slides of vaginal smears, fine needle aspiration biopsies and exfoliative cytological material. The tissue samples date back until 1944 and most of the cytological samples until 1970. A subunit of the bank constitutes the National Tissue Microarray Centre. 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.

The CTB (Chernobyl Tissue Bank) is an international cooperation that collects, stores and disseminates biological samples from tumors and normal tissues from patients for whom the aetiology of their disease is known - exposure to radioiodine in childhood following the accident at the Chernobyl power plant. The main objective of this project is to provide a research resource for both ongoing and future studies of the health consequences of the Chernobyl accident. It seeks to maximize the amount of information obtained from small pieces of tumor by providing multiple aliquots of RNA and DNA extracted from well documented pathological specimens to a number of researchers world-wide and to conserve this valuable material for future generations of scientists. It exists to promote collaborative, rather than competitive, research on a limited biological resource. Tissue is collected to an approved standard operating procedure (SOP) and is snap frozen; the presence or absence of tumor is verified by frozen section. A representative paraffin block is also obtained for each case. Where appropriate, we also collect fresh and paraffin-embedded tissue from loco-regional metastases. Currently we do not issue tissue but provide extracted nucleic acid, paraffin sections and sections from tissue microarrays from this material. The project is coordinated from Imperial College, London and works with Institutes in the Russian Federation (the Medical Radiological Research Centre in Obninsk) and Ukraine (the Institute of Endocrinology and Metabolism in Kiev) to support local scientists and clinicians to manage and run a tissue bank for those patients who have developed thyroid tumors following exposure to radiation from the Chernobyl accident. Belarus was also initially included in the project, but is currently suspended for political reasons.
