UK Multiple Sclerosis Tissue Bank Resource Report Resource Website |
UK Multiple Sclerosis Tissue Bank (RRID:SCR_004609) | UK MS Tissue Bank | biomaterial supply resource, material resource, tissue bank, brain bank | Procures brain, spinal cord and other tissues bequeathed by donors and makes them available to scientists investigating the cause and treatment of multiple sclerosis. The Tissue Bank achieves this aim by addressing the following objectives: # Increasing the awareness of the importance of human tissue to research amongst the MS and scientific communities. # Being sensitive to the needs of the tissue donor and responsive to the requirements of scientists when collecting and processing donated tissue. # Making available high quality, well-documented samples of tissue to research scientists working to better understand MS. There are approximately 85 000 people with multiple sclerosis in the United Kingdom. The varied symptoms experienced by all these people result from damage taking place within their brain and spinal cord. Understanding the exact nature of this damage is essential if we are to better treat the condition. Vital information about how the brain and spinal cord are damaged in multiple sclerosis can be obtained by using a multitude of experimental approaches to study the affected tissue from people with MS and ''control'' tissue from people without the disease. The donation of tissue for research is therefore fundamental to furthering our understanding of the causes of multiple sclerosis and to developing more effective treatments for the disease. The UK Multiple Sclerosis Tissue Bank welcomes requests for tissue samples for use in research into the cause and treatment of multiple sclerosis. It has available post mortem, cryopreserved brain and spinal cord tissue both fixed and unfixed, and cerebrospinal fluid from patients with and without a history of multiple sclerosis. Freshly dissected tissue samples, or those preserved using unconventional techniques may also be made available by prior arrangement. | brain, spinal cord, tissue, cerebral spinal fluid, post-mortem |

Medical University of Vienna Institute of Neurology Resource Report Resource Website |
Medical University of Vienna Institute of Neurology (RRID:SCR_005030) | MedUni Vienna IN | institution | The (Clinical) Institute of Neurology (IN) of the Medical University Vienna was founded in 1882 by Heinrich Obersteiner. It is the oldest institution embracing the multidisciplinarity of neurosciences and has served as model for the establishment of similarly designed institutions in many countries. The original location of the then Neurological Institute in Vienna was at Schwarzspanierstrasse. Since 1993, IN is located in the Vienna General Hospital in top-class laboratory facilities. IN is committed to its proud tradition as Obersteiner Institute and to a promising future of a nationally and internationally leading institution in the clinical neurosciences. Our work aims to translate the understanding of nervous diseases to the development of novel therapeutics and diagnostics. IN''''s tasks include diagnostic patient service, research and graduate / postgraduate teaching in neuropathology, neurochemistry, and neuro-molecular biology in an integrated way. Neuropathology is a recognized medical specialty in Austria. It analyzes structural changes of nervous tissues in disease. Diagnostic neuropathology makes use of most modern morphological techniques applied to diseased central, peripheral and vegetative nervous tissues and fluids, and muscle. Neuropathological diagnoses are a basis for disease classification and rational therapies. Neurodegenerative disorders, in particular prion diseases, virus diseases affecting the nervous system, and brain tumors (neuro-oncology) are research priorities. In the highly publicized area of prion diseases, IN has developed into a national and international center of excellence and expertise that leads several European, EU-funded networks in prion research. As an indispensable asset, the IN possesses a large brain bank that has systematically collected neuropathological specimens since 1948. Most samples are fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue only, but in a part of neurosurgical, nerve and muscle biopsies and autopsies, also fresh tissue is obtained, frozen and stored at -80 degrees C. Occasionally blood and CSF are also available. The unique neuropathological collection of histological slides, paraffin blocks and formol-fixed nervous tissues now comprises about 16.000 brain autopsies, 30.000 neurosurgical and 7.500 nerve/muscle biopsies. Also a number of cell cultures have been stored, mainly fibroblasts from patients with rare neurometabolic diseases, and primary cultures of brain tumors. IN participates in the EU-supported European Network of Brain Banks BrainNet Europe. | neurodegenerative disease, prion disease, neuroviral disease, neurometabolic disease, brain tumor, nervous system disease, neuropathology, nervous system, neuro-oncology, clinical, neuroscience, clinical neuroscience, tissue, brain tissue, brain, blood, cerebral spinal fluid, cell, fibroblast, brain tumor, tumor, fixed, paraffin-embedded, fresh, frozen, histological slide, paraffin block, formol-fixed, neuropathological specimen, nerve, muscle |

FlyAtlas: the Drosophila gene expression atlas Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
FlyAtlas: the Drosophila gene expression atlas (RRID:SCR_005032) | FlyAtlas | expression atlas, data or information resource, atlas | FlyAtlas gives you a quick answer to the question: where is my gene of interest expressed/enriched in the adult fly? For each gene and tissue, you''re given the mRNA SIGNAL (how abundant the mRNA is), the mRNA ENRICHMENT (compared to whole flies), and the Affymetrix PRESENT CALL (out of 4 arrays, how many times it was detectably expressed). The dataset so far comprises 44 Affymetrix Dros2 expression arrays, each mapping the expression of 18770 transcripts - corresponding to the vast majority of known Drosophila genes. The dataset thus contains over 822800 separate datapoints. This website is intended to make the data easily accessible and comprehensible to mere mortals. FlyAtlas provides the most comprehensive view yet of expression in multiple tissues of Drosophila melanogaster. Meta-analysis of the data shows that a significant fraction of the genome is expressed with great tissue specificity in the adult, demonstrating the need for the functional genomic community to embrace a wide range of functional phenotypes. Well-known developmental genes are often reused in surprising tissues in the adult, suggesting new functions. The homologs of many human genetic disease loci show selective expression in the Drosophila tissues analogous to the affected human tissues, providing a useful filter for potential candidate genes. Additionally, the contributions of each tissue to the whole-fly array signal can be calculated, demonstrating the limitations of whole-organism approaches to functional genomics and allowing modeling of a simple tissue fractionation procedure that should improve detection of weak or tissue-specific signals. | adult, wild-type, canton s, brain, head, eye, thoracicoabdominal ganglion, salivary gland, crop, midgut, hindgut, heart, ovary, fat body, testis, male accessory glands, virgin spermatheca, mated spermatheca spermatheca, carcass, cns, salivary gland, tubule, larval, s2 cells, whole fly |

neuroVIISAS (RRID:SCR_006010) | neuroVIISAS | data visualization software, data processing software, d visualization software, data analytics software, network graph visualization software, software application, software resource | An open framework for integrative data analysis, visualization and population simulations for the exploration of network dynamics on multiple levels. This generic platform allows the integration of neuroontologies, mapping functions for brain atlas development, and connectivity data administration; all of which are required for the analysis of structurally and neurobiologically realistic simulations of networks. What makes neuroVIISAS unique is the ability to integrate neuroontologies, image stacks, mappings, visualizations, analyzes and simulations to use them for modelling and simulations. Based on the analysis of over 2020 tracing studies, atlas terminologies and registered histological stacks of images, neuroVIISAS permits the definition of neurobiologically realistic networks that are transferred to the simulation engine NEST. The analysis on a local and global level, the visualization of connectivity data and the results of simulations offer new possibilities to study structural and functional relationships of neural networks. neuroVIISAS provide answers to questions like: # How can we assemble data of tracing studies? (Metastudy) # Is it possible to integrate tracing and brainmapping data? (Data Integration) # How does the network of analyzed tracing studies looks like? (Visualization) # Which graph theoretical properties posses such a network? (Analysis) # Can we perform population simulations of a tracing study based network? (Simulation and higher level data integration) neuroVIISAS can be used to organize mapping and connectivity data of central nervous systems of any species. The rat brain project of neuroVIISAS contains 450237 ipsi- and 175654 contralateral connections. A list of evaluated tracing studies are available. PyNEST script generation does work using WINDOWS OS, however, the script must be transferred to a UNIX OS with installed NEST. The results file of the NEST simulation can be visualized and analyzed by neuroVIISAS on a WINDOWS OS. | platform, simulation, mapping data, connectivity data, central nervous system, tracing, connectivity, java, image modality, pynest, nest, animation, brain, nervous system, brain mapping, neuroimaging, terminology, ontology, connectomics, atlas, population spike analysis, analytics, connectome, 3d visualization, visual analytics, ontology |
