A research organization which aims to conduct a variety of stem cell research projects. These projects include: to CD phenotype the human prostate and bladder using a confocal microscopy, to CD the phenotype of the mouse prostate and bladder, to profile samples of basal and stromal cells using uncultured cells, to confirm cell-type specific expression of genes that were identified by array analysis, and to create a database with the resulting database.

A web-interface that enables users to access and download the processed ChIP chip/seq data of nuclear receptors, co-regulators and histone modifications. The web resources also includes processed differential expression data under ligand induction in conditions matched to ChIP_chip/seq data whenever possible. All the ChIP chip/seq peak regions are annotated with enriched HRE and co-regulator motifs. A list of predicted hormone response genes from integration of nuclear receptor ChIP chip/seq data and differential expression data is also readily available to the users.

Clinical evidence has shown that physical exercise during pregnancy may alter brain devel- opment and improve cognitive function of offspring. However, the mechanisms through which maternal exercise might promote such effects are not well understood. The present study examined levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and absolute cell num- bers in the hippocampal formation and cerebral cortex of rat pups born from mothers exer- cised during pregnancy. Additionally, we evaluated the cognitive abilities of adult offspring in different behavioral paradigms (exploratory activity and habituation in open field tests, spatial memory in a water maze test, and aversive memory in a step-down inhibitory avoid- ance task). Results showed that maternal exercise during pregnancy increased BDNF lev- els and absolute numbers of neuronal and non-neuronal cells in the hippocampal formation of offspring. No differences in BDNF levels or cell numbers were detected in the cerebral cortex. It was also observed that offspring from exercised mothers exhibited better cognitive performance in nonassociative (habituation) and associative (spatial learning) mnemonic tasks than did offspring from sedentary mothers. Our findings indicate that maternal exer- cise during pregnancy enhances offspring cognitive function (habituation behavior and spa- tial learning) and increases BDNF levels and cell numbers in the hippocampal formation of offspring.

A database which provides results of comprehensive immunogenomic analyses of next generation sequencing data for 19 solid cancers from The Cancer Genome Atlas and other datasources. The database can be queried for the gene expression of specific immune-related gene sets, cellular composition of immune infiltrates (characterized using gene set enrichment analyses and deconvolution), neoantigens and cancer-germline antigens, HLA types, and tumor heterogeneity (estimated from cancer cell fractions). It also provides survival analyses for different types immunological parameters.

A commercial biomaterial analysis service dedicated to developing antibody protein sequencing and characterization technologies. The main service it offers is antibody de novo sequencing. Both heavy and light chains are directly sequenced using multiple enzyme digestion and high resolution LC-MS/MS. The sequencing process does not require hybridoma, mRNA, or other sequence information. Rapid Novor also offers to make recombinant versions of antibody proteins sent in for sequencing.

A persistent unique identifier for samples and specimens collected from the natural environment. IGSNs are created by the user and are case sensitive. They should be concise, machine readable, and non-derivable to ensure originality. IGSNs were created and are organized by the IGSN e.V., whose goal is to implement and promote standard methods for locating, identifying, and citing physical samples with confidence by operating an international IGSN registration service with a distributed infrastructure for use by and benefit to its members.

The ubiquitous genus Alternaria contains many species that are able to invade cereals, oleaginous plants and other crops. Alternaria alternata is considered one of the most important species and can produce several mycotoxins under favourable conditions of temperature and humidity, including the economically important toxins: alternariol (AOH) and alternariol monomethyl ether (AME). The aim of this study was to evaluate the radio-sensitivity of Alternaria alternata spores through different gamma radiation doses. A. alternata growth and the production of AOH and AME were then analyzed. After fungal irradiation with 2 kGy, 5 kGy and 7 kGy, the spores were suspended with sterile distilled water followed by inoculation on wheat grains. The count of the colony-forming units per gram (CFU/g) was performed using Dichloran Rose Bengal Chloramphenicol (DRBC) and Dichloran Chloramphenicol Agar Malt Extract (DCMA); AOH and AME were analyzed using Liquid Chromatography coupled with Mass Spectrometer (LC-MS). Results showed that fungal growth and toxin production increased with the increase of radiation dosage. The implications of these findings in relation to the resistance of A. alternata spores to gamma irradiation are discussed.
