http://www.cpc.unc.edu/projects/addhealth

Longitudinal study of a nationally representative sample of adolescents in grades 7-12 in the United States during the 1994-95 school year. Public data on about 21,000 people first surveyed in 1994 are available on the first phases of the study, as well as study design specifications. It also includes some parent and biomarker data. The Add Health cohort has been followed into young adulthood with four in-home interviews, the most recent in 2008, when the sample was aged 24-32. Add Health combines longitudinal survey data on respondents social, economic, psychological and physical well-being with contextual data on the family, neighborhood, community, school, friendships, peer groups, and romantic relationships, providing unique opportunities to study how social environments and behaviors in adolescence are linked to health and achievement outcomes in young adulthood. The fourth wave of interviews expanded the collection of biological data in Add Health to understand the social, behavioral, and biological linkages in health trajectories as the Add Health cohort ages through adulthood. The restricted-use contract includes four hours of free consultation with appropriate staff; after that, there''s a fee for help. Researchers can also share information through a listserv devoted to the database.

http://ods.od.nih.gov/Research/CARDS_Database.aspx

Database of federally funded research projects pertaining to dietary supplements. CARDS contains projects funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Department of Defense (DOD) and the Institutes and Centers (ICs) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) beginning with fiscal year 1999, the first year that NIH ICs began reporting research related to dietary supplements. Projects funded by other Federal agencies will be added to CARDS as they become available. The Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) will post notices on its website and listserv when CARDS updates are completed. Codes assigned to each research project allow the CARDS user to identify: * research related to specific dietary supplement ingredients; for example, vitamin E or St. John''''s wort * the type of study; for example, a Phase III study or an animal study * health outcomes or biological effects; for example, osteoporosis or antioxidant function * whether the research is directly related or indirectly related to dietary supplements. For example, a clinical trial comparing bone density in women given a daily calcium supplement versus a placebo would be classified as directly related to dietary supplements. A study examining the activation of steroid hormone receptors by supplemental vitamin D in cell culture would be classified as indirectly related to dietary supplements because the direct physiological or health effects of vitamin D supplementation are not being studied. A search of the CARDS database can be used to sort and tabulate information for a variety of purposes. For example, a researcher may want to know which ICs at the NIH fund research on herbal supplement ingredients. A consumer may want to know if the Federal government is supporting research on a popular dietary supplement ingredient such as vitamin C.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 1, 2019. The first brain atlas for the common marmoset to be made available since a printed atlas by Stephan, Baron and Schwerdtfeger published in 1980. It is a combined histological and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) atlas constructed from the brains of two adult female marmosets. Histological sections were processed from Nissl staining and digitized to produce an atlas in a large format that facilitates visualization of structures with significant detail. Naming of identifiable brain structures was performed utilizing current terminology. For the present atlas, an adult female was perfused through the heart with PBS followed by 10% formalin. The brain was then sent to Neuroscience Associates of Knoxville, TN, who prepared the brain for histological analysis. The brain was cut in the coronal (frontal) plane at 40 microns, every sixth section stained for Nissl granules with thionine and every seventh section stained for myelinated fibers with the Weil technique. The mounted sections were photographed at the NIH (Medical Arts and Photography Branch). The equipment used was a Nikon Multiphot optical bench with Zeiss Luminar 100 mm lens, and scanned with a Better Light 6100 scan back driven by Better Light Viewfinder 5.3 software. The final images were saved as arrays of 6000x8000 pixels in Adobe Photoshop 6.0. A scale in mm provided with these images permitted construction of the final Nissl atlas files with a horizontal and vertical scale. Some additional re-touching (brightness and contrast) was done with Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0. The schematic (labeled) atlas plates were created from the Nissl images. The nomenclature came almost exclusively from brainmaps.org, where a rhesus monkey brain with structures labeled can be found. The labels for the MRI images were placed by M. R. Zametkin, under supervision from Dr. Newman.

http://www.neuroepigenomics.org/methylomedb/

A database containing genome-wide brain DNA methylation profiles for human and mouse brains. The DNA methylation profiles were generated by Methylation Mapping Analysis by Paired-end Sequencing (Methyl-MAPS) method and analyzed by Methyl-Analyzer software package. The methylation profiles cover over 80% CpG dinucleotides in human and mouse brains in single-CpG resolution. The integrated genome browser (modified from UCSC Genome Browser allows users to browse DNA methylation profiles in specific genomic loci, to search specific methylation patterns, and to compare methylation patterns between individual samples. Two species were included in the Brain Methylome Database: human and mouse. Human postmortem brain samples were obtained from three distinct cortical regions, i.e., dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC), ventral prefrontal cortex (vPFC), and auditory cortex (AC). Human samples were selected from our postmortem brain collection with extensive neuropathological and psychopathological data, as well as brain toxicology reports. The Department of Psychiatry of Columbia University and the New York State Psychiatric Institute have assembled this brain collection, where a validated psychological autopsy method is used to generate Axis I and II DSM IV diagnoses and data are obtained on developmental history, history of psychiatric illness and treatment, and family history for each subject. The mouse sample (strain 129S6/SvEv) DNA was collected from the entire left cerebral hemisphere. The three human brain regions were selected because they have been implicated in the neuropathology of depression and schizophrenia. Within each cortical region, both disease and non-psychiatric samples have been profiled (matching subjects by age and sex in each group). Such careful matching of subjects allows one to perform a wide range of queries with the ability to characterize methylation features in non-psychiatric controls, as well as detect differentially methylated domains or features between disease and non-psychiatric samples. A total of 14 non-psychiatric, 9 schizophrenic, and 6 depression methylation profiles are included in the database.
