Core facility that provides the following services: Autoantibody determination, HLA typing and Genotyping for the best recognized susceptibility loci (INS, PTPN22, CTLA4).

The Human Sample Procurement Core will support translational research endeavors within the JDRF Center by providing the Center''s laboratories access to well-characterized blood samples from patients with diabetes at different stages of the disease. This availability will greatly facilitate the translational exploration of concepts and targets emerging from the basic research projects. Individuals with T1D (recent onset, long-standing Type-1 diabetes) and matched controls (healthy or T2D) will be recruited from the patient population at the Joslin Diabetes Center and neighboring institutions. The Core will perform and record a basic characterization of patients and their samples. This analysis will include a thorough evaluation of clinical characteristics from a diabetes and autoimmune standpoint, and an immunogenetic workup (outsourced to Joslin or other cores): autoantibody determination, HLA typing and genotyping for the best recognized susceptibility loci (INS, PTPN22, CTLA4). A relational database will be adapted to record all patient information, copies of which will be provided in a de-identified manner to the investigators.

Core facility that provides the following services: Small molecule and peptide NMR spectrometry service. Formerly the NERCE NMR Resource. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a powerful tool for studying structural and conformational parameters of molecules. This tool is vital for the chemical analysis of both small molecules (like those discovered in small-molecule screens) and large molecules, such as carbohydrates and proteins found to have potential biologic importance.

Core facility that provides the following services: Maintainence and dissemination of transgenic and mutant mice.

The Genetically Modified NOD Mouse Core provides Center investigators, as well as researchers elsewhere, with access to transgenic and mutant lines derived from the NOD mouse model: some will be generated within the Core; others are established lines of proven experimental value that are maintained in the Core. The Core will construct transgenic mice in strains that have a high susceptibility to diabetes (in particular in the NOD line). This includes trangenesis by conventional pronuclear injection or by delivery of RNAi cassettes on lentiviral vectors. The Core will also provide a panel of existing transgenic and mutant lines. These lines are chosen because of their established interest in allowing the dissection of immunological tolerance in Type 1 Diabetes, and in response to Center investigator needs.

Core facility that provides the following services: DNA screening from clinical samples, Comparison of bacterial associations in health vs. disease by microarray, Human microbial identification microarray service.

The Microbial Identification Microarray Core (MIM) at The Forsyth Institute is a one-of-a-kind core service that enables the rapid determination of bacterial profiles of human clinical samples. The first MIM offering focuses on the detection of bacterial profiles from clinical samples from the oral cavity. Drs. Bruce Paster and Floyd Dewhirst, have used molecular analyses based on 16S rRNA sequencing to identify about 600 oral bacterial species, of which over half have not yet been cultivated. Using this information, they have developed the Human Oral Microbe Identification Microarray, or HOMIM, which allows the simultaneous detection of about 300 of the most prevalent oral bacterial species, including those that cannot yet be grown in vitro. Microarrays targeting bacterial species of the human and mouse intestines are presently under development. In addition, exploratory and pilot studies to identify bacteria within any human clinical sample by 16S rRNA cloning and sequencing are available. This service is available to researchers from all academic institutions and to industry. Researchers submit DNA isolated from clinical samples and receive an online comprehensive data analysis and easy-to-interpret readout. Depending upon the number of samples to be analyzed and position in the queue, results can usually be obtained within days. Note that results are presently for research purposes only.

The Forsyth Center for Clinical and Translational Research (CCTR) is a unique clinical facility with 6 fully-equipped dental units and associated laboratories that are specifically dedicated to conduct clinical research in oral and related systemic diseases. Clinical trials following FDA guidelines are performed at all levels, from early phase 1 trials to large, multicenter definitive clinical trials, with the goal of improving outcomes and the long-term health of patients. We routinely conduct studies in the oral environment, that include standard clinical measurement protocols for dental caries, dental calculus, gingivitis, periodontal diseases, intraoral local anesthetic evaluation, tooth restoration and tooth whitening evaluation. In addition, the clinic is equipped for obtaining and processing microbiological samples, gingival crevice fluid samples, blood and saliva samples for analysis of bacteria, inflammatory mediators, as well as for genomic and proteomic analyses. Under the new leadership of Dr. Thomas Van Dyke, Vice President of Clinical Research at The Forsyth Institute, the Center proposes new goals/efforts in discovering new techniques, testing new ideas and searching for valuable biomarkers for preventing and treating periodontal diseases and associated systemic inflammatory conditions. The CCTR is actively involved with the design and conduct of clinical research under Good Clinical Practices for submission to regulatory agencies. It has a published international reputation in evaluating intraoral local drug delivery devices, oral diagnostic systems, local anesthesia, restorative materials, tooth whitening systems and the association of oral diseases with systemic conditions. Forsyth''s Institutional Review Board is a member of the Harvard Catalyst Regulatory Group and meets on a monthly basis providing complete review of clinical protocols.
