Multi-center, randomized controlled study designed to determine if continuing interferon long term over several years will suppress the Hepatitis C virus, prevent progression to cirrhosis, prevent liver cancer and reduce the need for liver transplantation. Patient enrollment began in 2000 and was completed in 2003 at 10 clinical centers, which were supported by a data coordinating center, virological testing center, and central sample repository. Patients with chronic hepatitis C and advanced fibrosis or cirrhosis on liver biopsy who failed to respond to a previous course of interferon alfa were enrolled in this study. Patients were initially treated with a 24-week course of peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin. Patients who remained hepatitis C virus RNA positive were then randomized to receive maintenance, low-dose peginterferon or to be followed on no treatment. Liver biopsies were done before enrollment and after 2 and 4 years of treatment or follow-up. The endpoints were development of cirrhosis, hepatic decompensation, hepatocellular carcinoma, death, or liver transplantation. 1050 patients were randomized and followed through the 4 year randomized phase of the trial and as long as 4 years off treatment. Serum samples collected at multiple time points, DNA and liver tissue are available for scientific investigation.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 5, 2023. MUGEN Mouse Database (MMdb) is a virtual and fully searchable repository of murine models of immune processes and immunological diseases. MMdb is being developed within the context of the MUGEN network of Excellence, a consortium of 21 leading research institutes and universities, and currently holds all mutant mouse models that were developed within the consortium. Its primary aim is to enable information exchange between participating institutions on mouse strain characteristics and availability. More importantly, it aims to create a mouse-centric international forum on modelling of immunological diseases and pave the way to systems biology of the mouse by correlating various genotypic and phenotypic characteristics. The basic categorization of models is based on three major research application categories: * Model of Human Disease * Model of Immune Processes * Transgenic Tool Mutant strains carry detailed information on affected gene(s), mutant alleles and genetic background (DNA origin, targeted, host and backcrossing background). Each gene/transgene index also includes IDs and direct links to Ensembl (EBI��s genome browser), ArrayExpress (providing expression profiles), Eurexpress II (for embryonic expression patterns) and NCBI��s Entrez Gene database. Phenotypic description is standardized and hierarchically structured, based on MGI��s mammalian phenotypic ontology terms, but also includes relevant images and references. Since version 2.1.0 MMdb is also utilizing PATO. Availability (in the form of live mice, cryopreserved embryos or sperm, as well as ES cells) is clearly indicated, along with handling and genotyping details (in the form of documents or hyperlinks) and all relevant contact information (including EMMA and JAX hyperlinks where available).

International consortium of six centers assembled to participate in the development and implementation of studies to identify infectious agents, dietary factors, or other environmental agents, including psychosocial factors, that trigger type 1 diabetes in genetically susceptible people. The coordinating centers recruit and enroll subjects, obtaining informed consent from parents prior to or shortly after birth, genetic and other types of samples from neonates and parents, and prospectively following selected neonates throughout childhood or until development of islet autoimmunity or T1DM. The study tracks child diet, illnesses, allergies and other life experiences. A blood sample is taken from children every 3 months for 4 years. After 4 years, children will be seen every 6 months until the age of 15 years. Children are tested for 3 different autoantibodies. The study will compare the life experiences and blood and stool tests of the children who get autoantibodies and diabetes with some of those children who do not get autoantibodies or diabetes. In this way the study hopes to find the triggers of T1DM in children with higher risk genes.

Database containing the DNA sequence and annotation of the entire human chromosome 7, encompassing nearly 158 million nucleotides of DNA and 1917 gene structures, are presented; the most up to date collation of sequence, gene, and other annotations from all databases (eg. Celera published, NCBI, Ensembl, RIKEN, UCSC) as well as unpublished data. To generate a higher order description, additional structural features such as imprinted genes, fragile sites, and segmental duplications were integrated at the level of the DNA sequence with medical genetic data, including 440 chromosome rearrangement breakpoints associated with disease. The objective of this project is to generate a comprehensive description of human chromosome 7 to facilitate biological discovery, disease gene research and medical genetic applications. There are over 360 disease-associated genes or loci on chromosome 7. A major challenge ahead will be to represent chromosome alterations, variants, and polymorphisms and their related phenotypes (or lack thereof), in an accessible way. In addition to being a primary data source, this site serves as a weighing station for testing community ideas and information to produce highly curated data to be submitted to other databases such as NCBI, Ensembl, and UCSC. Therefore, any useful data submitted will be curated and shown in this database. All Chromosome 7 genomic clones (cosmids, BACs, YACs) listed in GBrowser and in other data tables are freely distributed.

Produce new neurological mouse models that could serve as experimental models for the exploration of basic neurobiological mechanisms and diseases. The impetus for the program resulted from the recognition that: * The value of genomic data would remain limited unless more information about the functionality of its individual components became available. * The task of linking genes to specific behavior would best be accomplished by employing a combination of different approaches. In an effort to complement already existing programs, the Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility decided to use: a random, genome-wide approach to mutagenesis, i.e.N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) as the mutagen; a three-generation back-cross breeding scheme to focus on the detection of recessive mutations; behavioral screens selective for the detection of phenotypes deemed useful for the program goals. The resulting mutant mouse lines have been available to the scientific community for the last five years and over 700 NMF mice have been sent to interested investigators for research; these mutant mouse lines will remain available as frozen embryos (which can be re-derived on request) and can be ordered through the JAX customer service at 1-800-422-6423 (or 207-288-5845). The results of the work of the Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility and that of two other neurogenesis centers, i.e. The Neurogenomics Project at Northwestern University, and the Neuromutagenesis Project of the Tennessee Mouse Genome Consortium, can also be seen at Neuromice.org, a common web site of these three research centers; in addition, information about all mutants produced by these groups has been recorded in MGI.

Repository of knockout mice that have been extensively characterized. For each mouse line, the contractors will provide not only the mouse line itself, but also detailed, objective data on the impact of the specific gene deletion on the mouse''s phenotype, which includes appearance, health, fitness, behavior, ability to reproduce, and radiological and microscopic data. Such comprehensive information on such a large group of mice has never been available to public sector researchers, and is expected to greatly accelerate efforts to explore gene functions in health and disease. This resource will give researchers unprecedented access to two private collections of knockout mice, providing valuable models for the study of human disease and laying the groundwork for a public, genome-wide library of knockout mice. The contracts also provide for the opportunity for NIH to obtain up to 1500 additional mouse lines and phenotypic data over the next three years, pending available funds. The new contracts provide NIH with irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free licenses to use and distribute to academic and non-profit researchers these lines of knockout mice. The mouse lines, which will be stored in the form of frozen embryos, frozen sperm and frozen embryonic stem (ES) cells, will be delivered to NIH-funded mouse repositories that supply mice to universities, medical schools and research labs all over the world. When researchers express interest in obtaining a certain knockout mouse line, the repositories will send them live mice, frozen embryos, sperm, and/or ES cells, so they can study the mice in their own labs. All data on the mice will be made available to researchers worldwide without restriction in publicly available databases on the Web. This resource will be available for a nominal fee which will be used to cover the cost of handling, shipping and replenishing the stock. Under the license agreements with Deltagen and Lexicon, researchers who receive the knockout mice lines through NIH are free to publish any results from research involving the line and also to seek patent or other intellectual property protection for any of the inventions or discoveries resulting from such research.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on April 26, 2011. Information for depositors Investigators who are willing to share mice with the PD research community through this resource should send an email to PDMice_at_ninds.nih.gov describing the mouse. The submission will be reviewed by the PD Models Repository Oversight Committee and, if accepted, a copy of the MTA will be sent by return email. NINDS is most interested in distributing mice that have been characterized in a peer-reviewed publication, but other models will certainly be considered. The email should describe the following: The protocol for identification from tail DNA. The health report of the mice to be shipped (the report has to be less than 2 months old). Information about the strain and any special needs for care and breeding. Information about any publications involving the mice Certification that mice are not encumbered by continuing intellectual property or other rights to any research, data or discovery utilizing the animals. Information for consumers Investigators desiring to study the mice available through the repository should send a request via email to PDMice_at_ninds.nih.gov. Requests will be reviewed by the PD Models Repository Oversight Committee and priority will be determined on a first come, first served basis; two breeding pairs will typically be shipped to any single requester. As detailed in the MTA, mice are not available for commercial research, including but not limited to drug screening. Neither the creator nor UCLA have a role in the governance of the Repository, and specifically, cannot impose conditions upon availability or distribution. It is anticipated that until the Repository is in a mode of steady state production, requests will be collected and mice distributed as supply allows. The email requesting mice should include: A brief description of the protocol Either a copy of the IACUC approval letter or numberNINDS/UCLA Repository for Parkinson's Disease Mouse Models: One of the most immediate and important benefits of discoveries regarding the genetic or environmental causes of Parkinson's disease (PD) is the subsequent development of animal models wherein therapeutic and/or preventative interventions may be studied. The widespread availability of such models is critically important to making progress against a disorder that affects more than 500,000 Americans at any given time. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) fully recognizes the burden placed on investigators by the financial and logistical realities of distributing high demand research resources. Some investigators have deposited their mice with national distribution facilities but many mouse models are not available through such resources. Developing means to facilitate greater sharing of mouse models of PD is one of the goals developed by the PD research community at the July 2002 summit meeting convened by the NIH Director. Accordingly, as part of the effort to accelerate PD research, NINDS and the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) created a resource that will distribute transgenic mouse models of human PD that are not yet available through national commercial resources. Investigators who are willing to share mice with the PD research community can simply arrange with NINDS to have the mice deposited at UCLA and investigators desiring to study the mice may arrange with NINDS to obtain two breeding pairs. The process will use Material Transfer Agreements created specifically for this arrangement.

Non-profit repository for the collection, archiving (via cryopreservation) and distribution of relevant mutant strains essential for basic biomedical research. Users may browse by strain, gene, phenotype, or human disease. Its primary objective is to establish and manage a unified repository for maintaining medically relevant mouse mutants and making them available to the scientific community. Therefore, EMMA archives mutant strains and distributes them to requesting researchers. EMMA also hosts courses in cryopreservation, to promote the use and dissemination of frozen embryos and spermatozoa. Dissemination of knowledge is further fostered by a dedicated resource database. Anybody who wants their mutant mouse strains cryopreserved may deposit strains with EMMA. However depositors must be aware that these strains become freely available to other researchers after being deposited.With more than 8400 mutant mouse strains and asmall but increasing number of rat mutant strains available, EMMA is the primary mouse repository in Europe and the third largest non-profit repository worldwide.
