CTDatabase Resource Report Resource Website 50+ 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 | 2026-02-14 02:06:29 | 93 | ||||||||

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 |

Southwestern NMR Center for In Vivo Metabolism (RRID:SCR_001429) | Southwestern NMR Center | biomedical technology research center, training resource | Biomedical technology research center that develops and applies new methods for analysis of metabolic networks in intact tissues, animals and human patients. The importance of understanding abnormal metabolism in common diseases such as cancer, diabetes and heart disease has long been appreciated. Because of constraints in technology, however, much of this research has been conducted in isolated systems where clinical relevance may be uncertain. Progress in magnetic resonance technology provides a foundation for major advances towards new ways of imaging metabolism in patients. These new techniques offer the advantage of imaging biochemical pathways without radiation. The focus of this Resource is to bring these technologies to a level where clinical research is feasible through the development of new MR contrast agents, NMR spectroscopy at high fields, and imaging of hyperpolarized 13C. | metabolic network, tissue, imaging, metabolism, nuclear magnetic resonance, magnetic resonance, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy | has parent organization: University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center; Texas; USA | Cancer, Diabetes, Heart disease | NIBIB 5P41EB015908-28 | Free, Freely Available | nlx_152653 | SCR_001429 | Southwestern NMR Center for in vivo Metabolism - NIBIB | 2026-02-14 02:07:27 | 1 |
