A high performance search engine for gene expression that integrates thousands of manually curated public microarray and RNAseq experiments and nicely visualizes gene expression across different biological contexts (diseases, drugs, tissues, cancers, genotypes, etc.). There are two basic analysis approaches: # for a gene of interest, identify which conditions affect its expression. # for condition(s) of interest, identify which genes are specifically expressed in this/these conditions. Genevestigator builds on the deep integration of data, both at the level of data normalization and on the level of sample annotations. This deep integration allows scientists to ask new types of questions that cannot be addressed using conventional tools.

Clinical trial investigating whether a specific class of antihypertensive drugs (beta-adrenergic blockers, calcium channel blockers, or angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors) and/or the level of blood pressure would influence progression of hypertensive kidney disease in African Americans. The initiative consisting of 21 clinical centers and a data-coordinating center is followed by a Continuation of AASK Cohort Study to investigate the environmental, socio-economic, genetic, physiologic, and other co-morbid factors that influence progression of kidney disease in a well-characterized cohort of African Americans with hypertensive kidney disease. Only patients who were previously in the randomized trial are eligible for the cohort study. A significant discovery was made in the treatment strategy for slowing kidney disease caused by hypertension. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, compared with calcium channel blockers, were found to slow kidney disease progression by 36 percent, and they drastically reduced the risk of kidney failure by 48 percent in patients who had at least one gram of protein in the urine, a sign of kidney failure. ACE inhibitors have been the preferred treatment for hypertension caused by diabetes since 1994; however, calcium channel blockers have been particularly effective in controlling blood pressure in African Americans. The AASK study now recommends ACE inhibitors to protect the kidneys from the damaging effects of hypertension. The Continuation of AASK Cohort Study will be followed at the clinical centers. The patients will be provided with the usual clinical care given to all such patients at the respective centers. Baseline demographic information, selected laboratory tests, and other studies are being obtained at the initiation of the Continuation Study. The patients will be seen quarterly at the centers, and some selected studies done at these visits. Samples will be obtained and stored for additional studies and analyses at a later date.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. The objective of the project is the standardization of micro-satellite markers used within participating laboratories, use of DNA markers to define genetic diversity and to enable monitoring of breeds to promote conservation programs where required, and the determination of diversity present in rare and local breeds across Europe. The blood typing laboratories are now beginning to use micro-satellite markers as an alternative to serology for parentage verification, and are selecting a common set to be used from the several hundred micro-satellite markers available that cover the bovine genome, produced as part of the Bovine genome mapping project (See BovMaP). Work with micro-satellite markers has shown that they are valuable tools for examining genetic diversity and phylogeny in many species. However, for work carried out in different laboratories to be comparable, it is essential that the same markers are used. To maintain the compatibility of data generated by the various typing labs, it is essential that all laboratories adopt the same markers and typing protocols. It is therefore of paramount importance that the blood typing laboratories and research labs that are examining the genetic structure of the cattle populations adopt a common panel of the best micro-satellite markers available. Some pilot comparative work has been undertaken through the International Society for Animal Genetics, but so far this has only involved the blood typing laboratories. One objective of this project is to facilitate the comparison of the micro-satellite markers currently in use in the different types of laboratory and determine the efficiency of the markers available in revealing genetic differences within and among breeds. It will also be important to compare the use of markers in different laboratories to determine how robust they are and how easily results can be compared. From comparison of the markers, those that are most suitable will be selected to form a panel which will be recommended for pedigree validation and genetic surveys. Cattle are an important source of food in Europe, and intense selection has resulted in the development of specialized breeds. Selection for high-producing dairy cattle has been successful, but one associated drawback is that the cattle population, both in Europe and North America, has been skewed dramatically towards one breed, the Holstein/Friesian. So there has been a decline in the number of individuals of other breeds, and hence a general erosion of the genetic base of the cattle population. The progressive move towards the North American-type Holstein animals has also resulted in the requirement for high input/high output farming and intensive management schemes. The impact of this on the environment has been significant, e.g. pollution problems arising from the need for high nitrogen fertilizers to produce sufficient high quality fodder, and disposal problems associated with slurry waste. Poorer areas of the community have been unable to compete with such farming systems, and are more suited to low input/low output farming using traditional stock. It is however the future perspective that is of greatest concern. It is impossible to predict requirements for cattle production - quality, production type, management systems, etc. The ability to switch rapidly to alternative production will be dependent on the genetic base of the population available to selection programs. It is therefore essential to maintain the greatest genetic diversity possible in the cattle population. Whilst current farming practices are perceived to be both efficient and acceptable, the breeds less favored by commercial farmers will dwindle. It is therefore important that on an European scale efficient management of these breeds maintains the widest genetic base possible. This project aims to carry out a survey of the current genetic base of the European cattle population and to provide the tools to assist breeding programs to maintain a broad base. The blood typing laboratories are now beginning to use micro-satellite markers as an alternative to serology for parentage verification, and are selecting a common set to be used from the several hundred micro-satellite markers available that cover the bovine genome, produced as part of the Bovine genome mapping project. Early work to measure genetic diversity used blood groups to show differences between breeds and the diversity present. Unfortunately, the number of loci available are limited, with only the B system being sufficiently polymorphic to be really useful. However, since there is a wealth of information available from such typing, this information can be used to estimate changes in the genetic structure of cattle populations across Europe over the past twenty years. More recently mini-satellite probes have been used to generate ''genetic fingerprints'' which have been used to show differences between individuals. Such fingerprints have been used to estimate genetic diversity - the greater the number of bands revealed by the fingerprint being equated with greater diversity. This is valid within limits. The main disadvantage of the fingerprint approach is that the chromosomal location and number of loci being sampled, and so the proportion of the genome examined, is unknown. The allelic bands on the gel cannot be easily identified, so allele inheritance cannot be addressed making it impossible to trace ancestry. Through the EC funded BovMaP project, large numbers of highly polymorphic micro-satellite markers have become available, which are being mapped on the bovine genome. These markers are particularly suited to measuring genetic diversity, and markers can be selected to cover the entire genome.

Laboratory animals are used in nearly half of all research projects supported by the National Institutes of Health. Significant needs exist at the national level for skilled scientists trained to work with and interpret the data generated from the use of rodent animal models. In response to this national need a research training program has been established through funding by the National Centers for Research Resources to provide an environment for veterinarians (D.V.M. or V.M.D.) and D.V.M./Ph.D.''s to effectively utilize mouse models of human disease. Specifically, veterinarian scientists are trained in state of-the-art molecular and cellular techniques to systematically evaluate the mechanistic pathobiology and phenotype of experimental mouse models of human disease. The training program is coordinated through an established graduate program in the College of Veterinary Medicine, Department of VeterinaryBiosciences and supported by a unified group of basic and clinical scientists with ongoing collaborative programs at The Ohio State University and Children''s Hospital. The scientists have expertise in endocrinology, infectious disease, genetics, oncology, molecular biology, immunology, physiology, biochemistry, and pathology. Trainees gain knowledge and skills to fully understand and evaluate pathophysiologic alterations of murine models of human disease through both didactic coursework and applied training in pathology and molecular biology. In addition, trainees interact with our multidisciplinary faculty to identify the range of research problems that use murine models. They acquaint themselves with the ongoing basic and clinical research studies in the laboratories and clinical sites of the participating faculty, and select a research problem that utilizes a murine model for endpoint evaluation. Following the selection of a preceptor and research problem, the trainee participates in the design and performance of experiments, as well as analysis and presentation of data regarding a murine model. Trainees develop skills in clinical, gross, and histologic pathology, molecular and immunologic techniques, and use transgenic and immunodeficient mouse models to identify and characterize alterations in embryonic and postnatal development. Therefore, trainees acquire a broad background in molecular biology, genetics, pathology, laboratory animal medicine, as well as research design methodology to fulfill national needs in the development of skilled scientists in mouse pathobiology. :Sponsors: Mouse Pathology Training Grant is funded by the National Centers for Research Resources.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 22, 2016. Database containing information on the cattle genome comprising loci list, phenes list, homology query, cattle maps, gene list, and chromosome homology. The objective of BovMap is to develop a set of anchored loci for the cattle genome map. In total, 58 clones were hybridized with chromosomes and identified loci on 22 of the 31 different bovine chromosomes. Three clones contained satellite DNA. Two or more markers were placed on 12 chromosomes. Sequencing of the microsatellites and flanking regions was performed directly from 43 cosmids, as previously reported. Primers were developed for 39 markers and used to describe the polymorphism associated with the corresponding loci. Users are also allowed to summit their own data for Bovmap. An integrated cytogenetic and meiotic map of the bovine genome has also been developed around the Bovmap database. One objective that Bovmap uses as the mapping strategy for the bovine genome uses large insert clones as a tool for physical mapping and as a source of highly polymorphic microsatellites for genetic typing.
