CTDatabase Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
CTDatabase (RRID:SCR_007614) | data or information resource, database | A database of information about each Cancer-Testis (CT) gene, its gene products and the immune response induced in cancer patients by these proteins. CT antigens are proteins normally expressed only in the human germ line but that are also present in a significant subset of malignant tumors. The practical importance of these proteins is that due to their restricted expression pattern they are frequently recognized by the immune system of cancer patients. Moreover, this antigenicity has raised the possibility of their being used as vaccines to actively stimulate immune responses in order to combat tumor growth. As a result worldwide research into many aspects of CT antigens is rapidly growing prompting the construction of this database as a resource for investigators involved in this area. | data set, FASEB list | is listed by: 3DVC | Cancer | nif-0000-02704 | SCR_007614 | CTDatabase | 2026-09-05 06:31:41 | 109 | ||||||||

Resource for Genetic Epidemiology Research on Adult Health and Aging Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Resource for Genetic Epidemiology Research on Adult Health and Aging (RRID:SCR_010472) | GERA | data or information resource, database | Human genetics data from an immense (78,000) and ethnically diverse population available for secondary analysis to qualified researchers through the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP). It offers the opportunity to identify potential genetic risks and influences on a broad range of health conditions, particularly those related to aging. The GERA cohort is part of the Research Program on Genes, Environment, and Health (RPGEH), which includes more than 430,000 adult members of the Kaiser Permanente Northern California system. Data from this larger cohort include electronic medical records, behavioral and demographic information from surveys, and saliva samples from 200,000 participants obtained with informed consent for genomic and other analyses. The RPGEH database was made possible largely through early support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to accelerate such health research. The genetic information in the GERA cohort translates into more than 55 billion bits of genetic data. Using newly developed techniques, the researchers conducted genome-wide scans to rapidly identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genomes of the people in the GERA cohort. These data will form the basis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) that can look at hundreds of thousands to millions of SNPs at the same time. The RPGEH then combined the genetic data with information derived from Kaiser Permanente''s comprehensive longitudinal electronic medical records, as well as extensive survey data on participants'' health habits and backgrounds, providing researchers with an unparalleled research resource. As information is added to the Kaiser-UCSF database, the dbGaP database will also be updated. | genotype, phenotype, genome-wide association study, saliva, dna, male, female, health condition, electronic medical record, single nucleotide polymorphism, adult human, late adult human, gene, genome |

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.

The department has a dedicated staff, including two research nurses and a data coordinator, which facilitate the logistics of tissue handling and submit outcomes data on participating patients. The ITOR Biorepository staff is in the process of adopting a universal consent for all patients of the Greenville Hospital System to have the option of donating excess tissue for research, should they desire. ITOR of GHS has several tissue-based patient initiatives & programs under development and ongoing. At the forefront of cancer care are two specific programs, Total Cancer Care and Caris Target Now. | tissue, peripheral blood, blood, frozen, fresh, flash frozen, cancer | is listed by: One Mind Biospecimen Bank Listing | Cancer | Public: The ITOR Biorepository Services tissue bank initiatives are critical to the continued development of an organized research infrastructure that will attract leading biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies interested in developing the next generation of cancer therapies. | nlx_21679 | http://www.ghs.org/?id=166&sid=1 | SCR_004191 | Greenville Hospital System Cancer Biorepository, Institute for Translational Oncology Research Biorepository Services, Institute for Translational Oncology Research Biorepository | 2026-09-05 06:31:22 | 0 | |||||

Liverpool Tissue Bank (RRID:SCR_004143) | LTB | biomaterial supply resource, material resource, tissue bank | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. It has been incorporated with the LBIH Biobank. The Liverpool Tissue Bank (LTB) collects biological samples (tissue surplus to diagnostic requirement and blood) from patients undergoing surgery or biopsy procedure for the treatment and diagnosis of a wide variety of medical conditions. The main focus of the LTB is collecting samples from patients where cancer is a confirmed or likely diagnosis. These samples are banked to provide an invaluable resource for research groups investigating the molecular mechanisms involved in a range of medical conditions with the aim of devising new treatments and therapies. The Liverpool Tissue Bank (LTB) was formerly known as the Cancer Tissue Bank Research Centre (CTBRC) and changed to the LTB in late 2009. The Tissue Bank was established in 1991 from a charitable donation by the Candis Club, the charitable arm of Candis Magazine. It is a University of Liverpool resource located within the Department of Pathology, School of Cancer Studies. The LTB operates a cost recovery scheme where a charge is made to researchers to cover the costs involved in the collection, storage and processing of biosamples. | tissue bank, biospecimen bank, biological specimen bank, surgery tissue sample, biopsy tissue sample |
