http://www.stembase.ca

A publicly accessible database containing data on Affymetrix DNA microarray experiments, and Serial Analysis of Gene Expression, mostly on human and mouse stem cell samples and their derivatives to facilitate the discovery of gene functions relevant to stem cell control and differentiation. It has grown in both size and scope into a system with analysis tools that examine either the whole database at once, or slices of data, based on tissue type, cell type or gene of interest. There is currently more than 210 stem cell samples in 60 different experiments, with more being added regularly. The samples were originated by researchers of the Stem Cell Network and processed at the Core Facility of Stemcore Laboratories under the management of Ms. Pearl Campbell in the frame of the Stem Cell Genomics Project. Periodically, new expression data is submitted to the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) repository at the National Center for Biotechnological Information, in order to allow researchers to compare the data deposited in StemBase to a large amount of gene expression data sets. StemBase is different from GEO in both focus and scope. StemBase is concerned exclusively with stem cell related data. we are focused in Stem Cell research. We have made a significant effort to ensure the quality and consistency of the data included. This allows us to offer more specialized analysis tools related to Stem Cell data. GEO is intended as a large scale public archive. Deposition in a public repository such as GEO is required by most important scientific journals and it is advantageous for a further diffusion of the data since GEO is more broadly used than StemBase.

https://syllabus.med.unc.edu/courseware/embryo_images/

Tutorial that uses scanning electron micrographs (SEMs) as the primary resource to teach mammalian embryology. The 3-D like quality of the micrographs coupled with selected line drawings and minimal text allow relatively easy understanding of the complex morphological changes that occur in utero. Because early human embryos are not readily available and because embryogenesis is very similar across mammalian species, the majority of micrographs that are utilized in this tutorial are of mouse embryos. The remainder are human. This tutorial is divided into units that may be studied in any order. All of the images have a legend that indicates the age of the embryo. If it is a mouse embryo, the approximate equivalent human age is indicated. To minimize labeling, color-coding is widely used. To view the micrographs without color, the cursor may be placed on the image. The SEMs used in this tutorial are from the Kathleen K. Sulik collection. The line drawings have been used with permission from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins and are from the 6th and 7th editions of Langman''s Medical Embryology by T.W. Sadler.

https://www.bioconductor.org/packages//2.12/bioc/html/dexus.html

Software package that identifies differentially expressed genes in RNA-Seq data under all possible study designs such as studies without replicates, without sample groups, and with unknown conditions. It works also for known conditions, for example for RNA-Seq data with two or multiple conditions. RNA-Seq read count data can be provided both by the S4 class Count Data Set and by read count matrices. Differentially expressed transcripts can be visualized by heatmaps, in which unknown conditions, replicates, and samples groups are also indicated. This software is fast since the core algorithm is written in C. For very large data sets, a parallel version of DEXUS is provided in this package. DEXUS is a statistical model that is selected in a Bayesian framework by an EM algorithm. It does not need replicates to detect differentially expressed transcripts, since the replicates (or conditions) are estimated by the EM method for each transcript. The method provides an informative/non-informative value to extract differentially expressed transcripts at a desired significance level or power.

Flash GViewer is a customizable Flash movie that can be easily inserted into a web page to display each chromosome in a genome along with the locations of individual features on the chromosomes. It is intended to provide an overview of the genomic locations of a specific set of features - eg. genes and QTLs associated with a specific phenotype, etc. rather than as a way to view all features on the genome. The features can hyperlink out to a detail page to enable to GViewer to be used as a navigation tool. In addition the bands on the chromosomes can link to defineable URL and new region selection sliders can be used to select a specific chromosome region and then link out to a genome browser for higher resolution information. Genome maps for Rat, Mouse, Human and C. elegans are provided but other genome maps can be easily created. Annotation data can be provided as static text files or produced as XML via server scripts. This tool is not GO-specific, but was built for the purpose of viewing GO annotation data. Platform: Online tool

Community database that collects and integrates the gene expression information in MGI with a primary emphasis on endogenous gene expression during mouse development. The data in GXD are obtained from the literature, from individual laboratories, and from large-scale data providers. All data are annotated and reviewed by GXD curators. GXD stores and integrates different types of expression data (RNA in situ hybridization; Immunohistochemistry; in situ reporter (knock in); RT-PCR; Northern and Western blots; and RNase and Nuclease s1 protection assays) and makes these data freely available in formats appropriate for comprehensive analysis. There is particular emphasis on endogenous gene expression during mouse development. GXD also maintains an index of the literature examining gene expression in the embryonic mouse. It is comprehensive and up-to-date, containing all pertinent journal articles from 1993 to the present and articles from major developmental journals from 1990 to the present. GXD stores primary data from different types of expression assays and by integrating these data, as data accumulate, GXD provides increasingly complete information about the expression profiles of transcripts and proteins in different mouse strains and mutants. GXD describes expression patterns using an extensive, hierarchically-structured dictionary of anatomical terms. In this way, expression results from assays with differing spatial resolution are recorded in a standardized and integrated manner and expression patterns can be queried at different levels of detail. The records are complemented with digitized images of the original expression data. The Anatomical Dictionary for Mouse Development has been developed by our Edinburgh colleagues, as part of the joint Mouse Gene Expression Information Resource project. GXD places the gene expression data in the larger biological context by establishing and maintaining interconnections with many other resources. Integration with MGD enables a combined analysis of genotype, sequence, expression, and phenotype data. Links to PubMed, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), sequence databases, and databases from other species further enhance the utility of GXD. GXD accepts both published and unpublished data.
