Network evaluating consensus-based common data elements (CDE) for traumatic brain injury (TBI) and psychological health (TBI-CDE, www.commondataelements.ninds.nih.gov/TBI.aspx) while extensively phenotyping a cohort of TBI patients across the injury spectrum from concussion to coma. Institutions that participate in the TBI Network will be able to track the outcomes of patients through a 3, 6 and 12-month followup program and compare outcomes with other participating institutions. For the three acute care centers, patients were enrolled that presented to the emergency department within 24 hours of head injury and required computed tomography (CT). For the rehabilitation center, referrals from acute hospitals were enrolled. Patients were consented to participate in components: clinical profile; blood draws for measurement of proteomic and genomic markers; 3T MRI within 2 weeks; three-month Glasgow Outcome Scale-Extended (GOS-E); and six-month TBI-CDE Core outcome assessments. A web-enabled database, imaging repository, and biospecimen bank was developed using the TBI-CDE recommendations. A total of 605 patients were enrolled. Of these subjects, 88% had a GCS 13-15, 5% had a GCS 9-12, and 7% had a GCS of 8 or less. Three-month GOS-E''s were obtained for 78% of the patients. Comprehensive 6-month outcome measures, including PTSD assessment, are ongoing until September 2011. Blood specimens were collected from 450 patients. Initial CTs for 605 patients and 235 patients with 3T MRI studies were transferred to an imaging repository. The TRACK TBI Network will provide qualified institutions access to a web-based version of key forms in tracking TBI outcomes for Quality Improvement and institutional benchmarking.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on January 08, 2013. A consortium of three facilities whose purpose is to establish, characterize, and distribute novel mutant mouse models with neural and/or behavioral phenotypes, and distribute them to the worldwide research community. Interested scientists are able to obtain information about mouse lines at all three sites in a single unified database. GOALS * Increase genomic and genetic tools for functional gene identification * Provide mice with mutations that alter the nervous system or behavior * Build collaborations between geneticists and neuroscientists The consortium is made up of three mutagenesis and phenotypic screening facilities, focused on identifying alterations in nervous system function and behavior, and established by NIH. They are the Neurogenomics Project at Northwestern University, the Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility at The Jackson Laboratory, and the Neuromutagenesis Project of the Tennessee Mouse Genome Consortium. The NIH Neurogenomics Project at Northwestern University is directed by Dr. Joseph S. Takahashi, who also acts as the Director of the Neuromice.org consortium. Chemical mutagenesis is used to induce mutations throughout the genome and combined with phenotypic screens to detect mice with mutations. In order to maximize the genomic coverage and recover both dominant and recessive mutations, a dominant G1 screen and a recessive G3 screen are utilized. Phenotypic screens focus on five primary domains: learning and memory, behavioral responses to stress, responses to psychostimulants, circadian rhythmicity, and vision. The Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility at the Jackson Laboratory is directed by Dr. Wayne N. Frankel. The Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility is using a three-generation backcross breeding scheme to produce homozygous mutants and will thus recover dominant, semidominant, and recessive mutations. In addition, some mutagenesis will be done in ES cells followed by two generations of breeding. Phenotypic screens focus on identifying mutations affecting: motor function, seizure threshold, hearing, vision, and neurodevelopment. The Neuromutagenesis Project of the Tennessee Mouse Genome Consortium (TMGC) involves researchers throughout the state of Tennessee, under the direction of Dr. Daniel Goldowitz, Ph.D., at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis. TMGC also includes researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Vanderbilt University, Meharry Medical College, University of Tennessee-Knoxville, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and the University of Memphis. The Project is using regional mutagenesis, covering regions on chromosomes 10, 14, 15, 19, and X, thus including approximately 15 of the genome in the screened region. Phenotypic screens include: motor and sensory function, learning and memory, neurohistology, aging, alcohol response, abused drug response, visual function, and social behavior. Neuromice.org has stopped taking orders online but mutants are orderable please contact the originating center for availability and pricing details. Live targeted mutant Fragile X model mice are now available for distribution.

HD Community BioRepository is a secure, centralized repository that stores and distributes quality-controlled, reliable research reagents. This repository currently provides access to huntingtin DNAs, polyclonal antibodies (with antigenic peptides) and cell lines. Monoclonal antibodies and hybridomas will be added in the near future. Working together with the Coriell Institute for Medical Research, CHDI Foundation established this secure, centralized repository to store and distribute quality-controlled and reliable research reagents to give research scientists unobstructed access to biomaterials and to support the discovery of therapeutics that will slow or prevent Huntington's disease. Huntington's disease is a fatal, familial disease caused by a mutation in the huntingtin gene. The mutation causes brain cells to malfunction, resulting in cognitive and physical impairments that, over the course of the disease, isolate and constrain the individual. There is currently no way to stop or reverse the course of Huntington's disease. Researchers currently not collaborating with CHDI Foundation may request these Huntington's disease resources from the HD Community BioRepository through the website; CHDI collaborators are asked to contact Mithra Mahmoudi at CHDI Management. Materials will be sent after completing a simple online MTA. Recipients are asked to cover the costs of shipping and handling. Persons with Huntington's disease bioresources interested in making them available to the research community through the HD Community BioRepository should also contact CHDI Management.

With expertise in the preservation of biological specimens, Swiss Biobank is a biobank of cell therapy products (stem cells, progenitor). Strategically located in Suisse Romande, the center is accessible 7J/7J, 365 days / year. The laboratories and technology platforms are tailored to international standards. Service is prompt, courteous, and responsive to your needs. The first opportunity to harvest adult stem cells, which is the only type at Swiss Biobank, occurs just after the birth of a baby. The umbilical cord blood and placenta are rich in hematopoietic stem cells and can regenerate all cells in the bloodstream. The cord and placenta tissues themselves contain mesenchymal cells that can be used for the regeneration of connective tissue. The standardized procedures for collecting cord blood units are made ����??����??by the medical staff of the hospital / clinic according to international standards. The sample is transported by a courier Swiss Medical Biobank in which it is prepared and cryo-preserved by qualified personnel within 24 hours. In the case of public biobanking, cells, tissues, organs are donated and can be used with consent of the donor, a third person for transplantation, or as part of clinical research. The HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen) is a group of proteins on the cell surface, and specific to each individual. This allows the immune system to distinguish our own cells for foreign elements (pathogens) that are likely to be attacked. Histocompatibility between the donor and recipient is of primary importance in organ transplantation, tissues and / or cells, to minimize the chances of rejection. There is one chance in four that two siblings have the same HLA code.
