Searching across hundreds of databases
Signaling pathways involving nuclear receptors (NRs), their ligands and coregulators, regulate tissue-specific transcriptomes in diverse processes, including development, metabolism, reproduction, the immune response and neuronal function, as well as in their associated pathologies. The Nuclear Receptor Signaling Atlas (NURSA) is a Consortium focused around a Hub website (www.nursa.org) that annotates and integrates diverse 'omics datasets originating from the published literature and NURSA-funded Data Source Projects (NDSPs). These datasets are then exposed to the scientific community on an Open Access basis through user-friendly data browsing and search interfaces. Here, we describe the redesign of the Hub, version 3.0, to deploy "Web 2.0" technologies and add richer, more diverse content. The Molecule Pages, which aggregate information relevant to NR signaling pathways from myriad external databases, have been enhanced to include resources for basic scientists, such as post-translational modification sites and targeting miRNAs, and for clinicians, such as clinical trials. A portal to NURSA's Open Access, PubMed-indexed journal Nuclear Receptor Signaling has been added to facilitate manuscript submissions. Datasets and information on reagents generated by NDSPs are available, as is information concerning periodic new NDSP funding solicitations. Finally, the new website integrates the Transcriptomine analysis tool, which allows for mining of millions of richly annotated public transcriptomic data points in the field, providing an environment for dataset re-use and citation, bench data validation and hypothesis generation. We anticipate that this new release of the NURSA database will have tangible, long term benefits for both basic and clinical research in this field.

View all literature mentionsRegistry and results database of federally and privately supported clinical trials conducted in United States and around world. Provides information about purpose of trial, who may participate, locations, and phone numbers for more details. This information should be used in conjunction with advice from health care professionals.Offers information for locating federally and privately supported clinical trials for wide range of diseases and conditions. Research study in human volunteers to answer specific health questions. Interventional trials determine whether experimental treatments or new ways of using known therapies are safe and effective under controlled environments. Observational trials address health issues in large groups of people or populations in natural settings. ClinicalTrials.gov contains trials sponsored by National Institutes of Health, other federal agencies, and private industry. Studies listed in database are conducted in all 50 States and in 178 countries.
View all literature mentionsTHIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on February 25, 2022.Software tool as knowledge environment resource that accrues, develops, and communicates information that advances understanding of structure, function, and role in disease of nuclear receptors (NRs) and coregulators. It specifically seeks to elucidate roles played by NRs and coregulators in metabolism and development of metabolic disorders. Includes large validated data sets, access to reagents, new findings, library of annotated prior publications in field, and journal covering reviews and techniques.As of March 20, 2020, NURSA is succeeded by the Signaling Pathways Project (SPP).
View all literature mentionsOncomine Research Platform is a partially-commercial suite of products for online cancer gene expression analysis dedicated to the academic and non-profit research community. Oncomine combines a rapidly growing compendium of 20,000+ cancer transcriptome profiles with a sophisticated analysis engine and a powerful web application for data-mining and visualization. Oncomine facilitates rapid and reliable biomarker and therapeutic target discovery, validation and prioritization. Oncomine was developed by physicians, scientists, and software engineers at the University of Michigan and is now fully supported for the academic and non-profit research community by Compendia Bioscience.
View all literature mentionsThe Brain Biodiversity Bank refers to the repository of images of and information about brain specimens contained in the collections associated with the National Museum of Health and Medicine at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Washington, DC. Atlases and brain sections are available for a variety of mammals, and we are also developing a series of labeled atlases of stained sections for educators, students, and researchers. These collections include, besides the Michigan State University Collection, the Welker Collection from the University of Wisconsin, the Yakovlev-Haleem Collection from Harvard University, the Meyer Collection from the Johns Hopkins University, and the Huber-Crosby and Crosby-Lauer Collections from the University of Michigan. What we are doing currently at Michigan State is a series of demonstration projects for publicizing the contents of the collections and ways in which they can be used. For example, the images from the collection can be used for comparative brain study. We have prepared databases of the contents of the collections for presentation and use on this site, as well as for downloading by users in several formats. We are also developing a series of labeled atlases of stained sections for educators, students, and researchers. This internet site is associated with the Comparative Mammalian Brain Collections site. All of the images are in JPEG or GIF format.
