The Public’s Awareness of and Attitude Toward Research Biobanks – A Regional German Survey

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
Background: Biobanks have become an increasingly important means of biomedical research and innovation. However, they entail a variety of ethical, social and legal challenges, which need to be publicly discussed and managed collectively.

The UCLA ATLAS Community Health Initiative: Promoting precision health research in a diverse biobank

open access: yesCell Genomics, 2023
Summary: The UCLA ATLAS Community Health Initiative (ATLAS) has an initial target to recruit 150,000 participants from across the UCLA Health system with the goal of creating a genomic database to accelerate precision medicine efforts in California. This

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Lung cancer organoids: models for preclinical research and precision medicine

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
Lung cancer is a malignancy with high incidence and mortality rates globally, and it has a 5-year survival rate of only 10%–20%. The significant heterogeneity in clinical presentation, histological features, multi-omics findings, and drug sensitivity ...

Biobank@VITO: Biobanking the General Population in Flanders

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2020
During the last 15 years, VITO has established an infrastructure for biobanking a collection of biological samples from the general population in Flanders (Belgium). This biobank was set up to contribute to future, yet unspecified, research questions in the field of environment and health.

Observational study on variability between biobanks in the estimation of DNA concentration

open access: yes, 2009
There is little confidence in the consistency of estimation of DNA concentrations when samples move between laboratories. Evidence on this consistency is largely anecdotal.

Interrogating the immune landscape of microsatellite stable RAS‐mutated colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
COLOSSUS project RAS‐mutated MSS colon cancer study explored transcriptomics and immune cell density by immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunoscore (IS), ISIC/TuLIS scores, mutation counts, and detected different prevalences but similar microenvironment composition across immune markers with clinical relevance for future immunotherapy combination ...

Keratin 19 as a prognostic marker and contributing factor of metastasis and chemoresistance in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...

Framework for setting up and operating biobanks.

open access: yes, 2009
With regard to the use of bio materials, there is a great need for clarification of the legal ramifications. And since procuring and storing bio materials is becoming an increasingly important point for answering molecular-genetic questions within ...
