This web site provides browsers with images and information from one of the world''s largest collection of well-preserved, sectioned and stained brains of mammals. Viewers can see and download photographs of brains of over 100 different species of mammals (including humans) representing over 20 Mammalian Orders. Also available are examples of stained sections from a wide variety of brains of special interest, including Humans, Chimpanzees, Monkeys, various Rodents and Carnivores, California Sealion, Florida Manatee, Big Brown Bat, American Badger, American Raccoon, Yellow Mongoose, Zebra, Cow, and the Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin. A complete list of all available specimens is available. How brain evolution has occurred is discussed. Viewers will learn why these collections are important, why and how they were assembled, and why it is important to protect, preserve and maintain them. Moreover, a variety of issues in brain science are discussed. For users who are interested in using any of our images for educational or research purposes, you have our permission to use them. But, they are not to be published and copyrighted since this would prohibit others from using the same images. At any rate, we request that you identify them as from the University of Wisconsin and Michigan State Comparative Mammalian Brain Collections, as well as from those at the National Museum of Health and Medicine. Also, we request that you refer to the Web Site where you obtained them, as well as the fact that preparation of all these images and specimens have been funded by the National Science Foundation, as well as by the National Institutes of Health.

A cell repository containing cells and DNA for studies of aging and the degenerative processes associated with it. Scientists use the highly-characterized, viable, and contaminant-free cell cultures from this collection for research on such diseases as Alzheimer's disease, progeria, Parkinson's disease, Werner syndrome, and Cockayne syndrome. The collections of the Repository include DNA and cell cultures from individuals with premature aging disorders, as well as DNA from individuals of advanced age from the the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging at the Gerontology Research Center and other Longevity Collections. The Repository also includes samples from an Adolescent Study of Obesity, Apparently Healthy Controls, Animal Models of Aging, and both human and animal differentiated cell types. The cells in this resource have been collected over the past three decades using strict diagnostic criteria and banked under the highest quality standards of cell culture. Scientists can use the highly-characterized, viable, and contaminant-free cell cultures from this collection for genetic and cell biology research.

Core provides mass-spectrometry solutions for small-molecule research. Supports experimental design, ensuring proper handling, appropriate controls, and adequate statistical power, and then executes analyses on Thermo Orbitrap IQ-X and Agilent 6495D LC/MS systems and an Agilent 5977C GC/MS system. Using validated methods annotated against a library of 1,000+ compounds, we maximize metabolite and small-molecule coverage. We also offer untargeted profiling for biomarker and novel metabolite and lipid discovery, as well as stable-isotope tracing for measuring substrate utilization. Results are delivered with custom informatics and statistical interpretation for faster, more approachable insights.

V-Cell is a remote user modeling and simulation environment utilizing Java''s Remote Method Invocation (RMI). The biologically oriented user interface allows experimentalists to create models, define cellular geometry, specify simulations and analyze the simulation results. The results are run and stored on a remote server and can be reviewed in the software and/or exported in a variety of popular formats. The design of the biological to mathematical mapping allows for separate use of biological and math components, and includes automatic mathematical simplification using pseudo-steady approximations and mass conservation relationships. This allows for direct specification of mathematical problems, performing simulations and analysis on those systems. The stand alone mathematics user interface is also a powerful tool for modeling reaction-diffusion systems. A transparent general purpose solver is used to translate the initial biological description into a set of concise mathematical problems. The solver is transparent to the average user, but is accessible to the theorist as the Math Editor component. The software is composed of three main components: 1. The modeling framework represents the physiological models of the Virtual Cell and allows for persistence and database support. 2. The mathematics framework transparently solves an important class of mathematical problems encountered in the cellular modeling. 3. The WWW accessible graphical user interface provides access to the technology mentioned above. The user interface has been developed using Java 2 Applets.

CellCircuits is an open-access database of molecular network models. Its goal is to bridges the gap between databases of individual pair-wise molecular interactions and databases of validated pathways. It contains functional network hypotheses produced by algorithms that screen molecular interaction networks based on their correspondence with expression or phenotypic data, their internal structure, or their conservation across species. The database is searchable using protein/gene names and Gene Ontology terms. Models are available either as images or in machine-readable formats. Overall, this resource serves as a clearinghouse in which theorists may distribute or revise models in need of validation and experimentalists may search for models or specific hypotheses relevant to their interests. Funding provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF 0425926).

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 28,2022. InterPare is a database server for protein interaction interface information. It contains large-scale interface data of proteins whose 3D-structures are known. Protein interface information is derived from three different methods. InterPare introduces a large-scale protein domain interaction interface database called InterPare. InterPare uses three methods: 1) the Euclidean distance method for checking the distance among subunits in multidomain proteins, 2) Accessible Surface Area (ASA) for detecting the buried region of a protein that is detached from a solvent when forming multimers or complexes, 3) the Voronoi diagram, a computational geometry method, that uses a mathematical definition of interface regions. InterPare includes tools with different display modes for viewing protein interior, surface, and interaction interfaces.
