Produce resources to unravel the interface between insulin action, insulin resistance and the genetics of type 2 diabetes including an annotated public database, standardized protocols for gene expression and proteomic analysis, and ultimately diabetes-specific and insulin action-specific DNA chips for investigators in the field. The project aims to identify the sets of the genes involved in insulin action and the predisposition to type 2 diabetes, as well as the secondary changes in gene expression that occur in response to the metabolic abnormalities present in diabetes. There are five major and one pilot project involving human and rodent tissues that are designed to: * Create a database of the genes expressed in insulin-responsive tissues, as well as accessible tissues, that are regulated by insulin, insulin resistance and diabetes. * Assess levels and patterns of gene expression in each tissue before and after insulin stimulation in normal and genetically-modified rodents; normal, insulin resistant and diabetic humans, and in cultured and freshly isolated cell models. * Correlate the level and patterns of expression at the mRNA and/or protein level with the genetic and metabolic phenotype of the animal or cell. * Generate genomic sequence from a panel of humans with type 2 diabetes focusing on the genes most highly regulated by insulin and diabetes to determine the range of sequence and expression variation in these genes and the proteins they encode, which might affect the risk of diabetes or insulin resistance. The DGAP project will define: * the normal anatomy of gene expression, i.e. basal levels of expression and response to insulin. * the morbid anatomy of gene expression, i.e., the impact of diabetes on expression patterns and the insulin response. * the extent to which genetic variability might contribute to the alterations in expression or to diabetes itself.

http://hembase.niddk.nih.gov/

Database designed for web-based examination of the human erythroid transcriptome. The database is organized to provide a cytogenetic band position, a unique name as well as a concise annotation for each entry. Search queries may be performed by name, keyword or cytogenetic location. Search results are linked to primary sequence data and three major human genome browsers for access to information considered current at the time of each search. Hembase provides interested scientists and clinical hematologists with a genome-based approach toward the study of erythroid biology. Red blood cells in the circulation arise from hematopoietic stem cells that proliferate as erythroid progenitors and differentiate into erythroid precursor cells in response to the hormone erythropoietin. Messenger RNA was isolated from those cells and used to generate gene libraries. Sequencing several thousand expressed sequence tags (EST) from those libraries was then performed. Those EST and sequences encoding several hundred additional genes with known expression in erythroid cells are compiled here as a database of human erythroid gene activity. The database is organized and linked according to the location of these sequences within the human genome., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 15,2026.

Publications from a multi-center, longitudinal, observational study examining the risk factors associated with the long-term complications of type 1 diabetes. The study began in 1994 and follows the 1441 participants previously enrolled in the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT), http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/dm/pubs/control/index.aspx. The primary aim of EDIC is to examine the long-term effects of conventional vs. intensive diabetes treatment received during the DCCT on the subsequent development and progression of microvascular, neuropathic and cardiovascular complications. This involves studying the influence of genetic factors and other factors such as HbA1c, blood pressure, lipid levels, and treatment modalities on the development and progression of these complications. Annual or biennial measurements (using DCCT methods, standardized protocols and central laboratories) of vascular events, albumin excretion, GFR, ECG, ankle-brachial BP index, serum lipids and HbA1c allows the following analyses: 1) continuation of intention-to-treat analyses to determine long-term effects of prior separation of glycemic levels; 2) risk factors for macrovascular outcomes; 3) correlation of progression of micro- and macrovascular outcomes. The current updated version of the EDIC Protocol is available for download. EDIC is made up of 28 clinical centers, one data coordinating center and one clinical coordinating center.

Communication network of current and potential biomedical research investigators and technical personnel from traditionally under-served communities: African American, Hispanic American, American Indian, Alaskan Native, Native Hawaiian, and other Pacific Islanders. The major objective of the network is to encourage and facilitate participation of members of underrepresented racial and ethnic minority groups in the conduct of biomedical research in the fields of diabetes, endocrinology, metabolism, digestive diseases, nutrition, kidney, urologic and hematologic diseases. A second objective is to encourage and enhance the potential of the underrepresented minority investigators in choosing a biomedical research career in these fields. An important component of this network is promotion of two-way communications between network members and the NIDDK.
