Consortium aiming to improve pancreatic beta-cell function and identification of diagnostic biomarkers for treatment monitoring in diabetes. It brings together academic teams, pharmaceutical companies, and a Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs), which provides a unique blend of expertise and forms a strong basis for a successful enterprise to ultimately improve industrial competitiveness and Public Health in Europe. The program aims at delivering: * Novel tools for the study of human beta-cell development, function and survival; their modulation by potential therapeutic compounds; and for in vivo beta-cell imaging. * Biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of beta-cell failure and for monitoring diabetes progression and treatment. * Knowledge on novel molecular pathways and sites that control beta-cell life & death as well as mass and function.

A free archive and distribution service for unpublished preprints in the life sciences allowing authors to make their findings immediately available to the scientific community and receive feedback on draft manuscripts before they are submitted to journals. An article may be posted prior to, or concurrently with, submission to a journal but should not be posted if it has already been published. Once an article is published in a journal, bioRxiv will update the preprint with a link to the published version.

A biorepository is a place where investigators can deposit and store biological material, in this case samples derived from patients. Moreover, the Genomic Medicine Institute (GMI) takes this basic concept and elevates it to make the Genomic Medicine Biorepository (GMB) a full-service processing and banking laboratory that serves as the foundation for evidence-based research for the GMI, the Cleveland Clinic, and our collaborators. The process relies on a team of multi-disciplinary professionals coordinating their efforts in order to streamline medical research. This begins with dedicated physicians and genetic counselors identifying individuals with specific medical conditions indicating the possibility of genetic involvement. Once identified, biological material (e.g. blood, tissue, or saliva) is collected under the care of the patient''s doctor or by our clinicians and sent to the GMB. Once in the lab, the patient and their samples are assigned a unique identifier (to protect the patient''s personal information) and logged into a central database. This unique identifier accompanies all samples processed and banked for that individual. The specimens are then processed into research-relevant samples using proven laboratory techniques and state-of-the-art quality control practices. These samples include the isolation of DNA and RNA from white blood cells for genetic studies; collection of plasma for proteomic studies; and initiated immortalized cell lines from lymphocytes for in-vitro studies and biochemical research. These cell lines are able to be indefinitely stored in cryogenic suspension and are invaluable as a renewable resource for genetic and biochemical research. The GMB also processes genetic material from various tissues (both fresh and archived). Charis Eng, MD, PhD, Chair and Director of the GMI, has been the faculty oversight person of a human biorepository for the last eight years. Since then, our biorepository has received, cataloged, processed, and banked, in excess of 25,000 specimens. These samples are of numerous tissue types from patients and their family members located all over the world. Our biorepository has managed samples that have resulted in more than 150 original peer reviewed articles and greater than $25 million total direct costs in extramural funding over the last four years alone.
