THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 31,2025. The projected cluster includes the LBIs for Applied Cancer Research, Clinical Oncology and Photodynamic Therapy, Gynecology and Gynecologic Oncology, Stem Cell Transplantation and Surgical Oncology. The aim of the projected cluster Translational Oncology is the cooperative investigation of genetic and molecular biological characteristics of the tumor cells involved in minimal residual disease (MRD) in vitro and translation of the experimental and diagnostic results into the clinical practice involving therapeutic modalities with the newest generation of antitumoral drugs. Minimal residual disease is the designation for the occurrence of a low number of tumor cells remaining clinically undetected following curative therapy that give rise to tumor relapses. MRD is a central question in cancer therapy, since a major subpopulation of patients which underwent curative resection and therapy ultimately relapse and would have received more aggressive adjuvant therapy, provided that residual disease had been clearly proven. Otherwise low-risk patients would have not been treated aggressively in an adjuvant setting. MRD can be detected by methods in bone marrow or by extremely sensitive PCR (polymerase-chain-reaction)-based methods in peripheral blood. PCR-based methods allow for the characterization of tumor-specific gene expression in circulating tumor cells and thereby provide additional information in regard to malignity of cells and prognosis. The different participating institutions have extensive experience in patient care, organization of clinical studies and laboratory investigation. In particular, expert knowledge in stem cell transplantation and histological detection of MRD, multicentric clinical testing of new anticancer drugs, specialized treatment of various selected tumor entities such as neuroendocrine tumors, gene expression analysis of circulating tumor cells and tumor signatures, and in vitro characterization of chemosensitivity as well as tumor cell biology have been acquired at the individual LBIs in the past and are complementary to each other to be combined in a larger cluster structure. The detection of circulating tumor cells will be supported by ongoing EU (OVCAD OVarian CAncer Diagnosis) and GenAU projects aiming at identification of ovarian cancer cells in the blood. The assessment of methylated DNA sequences (suppressor genes) in peripheral blood as an indicator of MRD can be performed with the help of OncoLab Diagnostics GmbH. Cooperative action in this cluster, using a common tumor bank/clinical data collection and the combined clinical and experimental efforts are the base for the execution of the presented MRD project.

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/MINC/Atlases

A linear average model atlas produced by the International Consortium for Brain Mapping (ICBM) project. A set of full- brain volumetric images from a normative population specifically for the purposes of generating a model were collected by the Montreal Neurological Institute (MNI), UCLA, and University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio Research Imaging Center (RIC). 152 new subjects were scanned using T1, T2 and PD sequences using a specific protocol. These images were acquired at a higher resolution than the original average 305 data and exhibit improved contrast due predominately to advances in imaging technology. Each individual was linearly registered to the average 305 and a new model was formed. In total, three models were created at the MNI, the ICBM152_T1, ICBM152_T2 and ICBM152_PD from 152 normal subjects. This resulting model is now known as the ICBM152 (although the model itself has not been published). One advantage of this model is that it exhibits better contrast and better definition of the top of the brain and the bottom of the cerebellum due to the increased coverage during acquisition. The entirely automatic analysis pipeline of this data also included grey/white matter segmentation via spatial priors. The averaged results of these segmentations formed the first MNI parametric maps of grey and white matter. The maps were never made publicly available in isolation but have formed parts of other packages for some time including SPM, FSL AIR and as models of grey matter for EEG source location in VARETTA and BRAINWAVE. Again, as these models are an approximation of Talairach space, there are differences in varying areas, to continue our use of origin shift as an example, the ICBM models are approximately 152: +3.5mm in Z and +-co-ordinate -3.5mm and 2.0mm in Y as compared to the original Talairach origin. In addition to the standard analysis performed on the ICBM data, 64 of the subjects data were segmented using model based segmentation. 64 of the original 305 were manually outlined and a resulting parametric VOI atlas built. The native data from these acquisitions was 256x256 with 1mm slices. The final image resolution of this data was 181x217x181 with 1mm isotropic voxels. Refer to the ICBM152 NonLinear if you are fitting an individual to model and do not care about left/right comparisons. A short history of the various atlases that have been produced at the BIC (McConnell Brain Imaging Center, Montreal Neurological Institute) is provided.

A grassroots initiative dedicated to accelerating the scientific community''''s understanding of the neural basis of ADHD through the implementation of open data-sharing and discovery-based science. They believe that a community-wide effort focused on advancing functional and structural imaging examinations of the developing brain will accelerate the rate at which neuroscience can inform clinical practice. The ADHD-200 Global Competition invited participants to develop diagnostic classification tools for ADHD diagnosis based on functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Applying their tools, participants provided diagnostic labels for previously unlabeled datasets. The competition assessed diagnostic accuracy of each submission and invited research papers describing novel, neuroscientific ideas related to ADHD diagnosis. Twenty-one international teams, from a mix of disciplines, including statistics, mathematics, and computer science, submitted diagnostic labels, with some trying their hand at imaging analysis and psychiatric diagnosis for the first time. The data for the competition was provided by the ADHD-200 Consortium. Consortium members from institutions around the world provided de-identified, HIPAA compliant imaging datasets from almost 800 children with and without ADHD. A phenotypic file including all of the test set subjects and their diagnostic codes can be downloaded. Winner is presented. The ADHD-200 consortium included: * Brown University, Providence, RI, USA (Brown) * The Kennedy Krieger Institute, Baltimore, MD, USA (KKI) * The Donders Institute, Nijmegen, The Netherlands (NeuroImage) * New York University Medical Center, New York, NY, USA (NYU) * Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, OR, USA (OHSU) * Peking University, Beijing, P.R.China (Peking 1-3) * The University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA (Pittsburgh) * Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, MO, USA (WashU)

http://www.gene-regulation.com/pub/databases.html#transpath

Database on eukaryotic transcription factors, their experimentally-proven binding sites, consensus binding sequences (positional weight matrices) and regulated genes. Its broad compilation of binding sites allows the derivation of positional weight matrices. It can either be used as an encyclopedia, for both specific and general information on signal transduction, or can serve as a network analyzer. Cross-references to important sequence and signature databases such as EMBL/GenBank UniProt/Swiss-Prot InterPro or Ensembl EntrezGene RefSeq are provided. The database is equipped with the tools for data visualization and analysis. It has three modules: the first one is the data, which have been manually extracted, mostly from the primary literature; the second is PathwayBuilder, which provides several different types of network visualization and hence facilitates understanding; the third is ArrayAnalyzer, which is particularly suited to gene expression array interpretation, and is able to identify key molecules within signalling networks (potential drug targets). These key molecules could be responsible for the coordinated regulation of downstream events. Manual data extraction focuses on direct reactions between signalling molecules and the experimental evidence for them, including species of genes/proteins used in individual experiments, experimental systems, materials and methods. This combination of materials and methods is used in TRANSPATH to assign a quality value to each experimentally proven reaction, which reflects the probability that this reaction would happen under physiological conditions. Another important feature in TRANSPATH is the inclusion of transcription factor-gene relations, which are transferred from TRANSFAC, a database focused on transcription regulation and transcription factors. Since interactions between molecules are mainly direct, this allows a complete and stepwise pathway reconstruction from ligands to regulated genes.
