Oncology

Cancer Genome Anatomy Project (http://cgap.nci.nih.gov/) Exit NIEHS Website
Determine the gene expression profiles of normal, precancer and cancer cells, leading eventually to improved detection, diagnosis and treatment for the patient. Data is searchable by gene, tissue, pathway and chromosomes.

Mouse Models of Human Cancers Consortium (http://emice.nci.nih.gov/) Exit NIEHS Website
National Cancer Institute’s “collaborative program designed to derive and characterize mouse models and to generate resources, information and innovative approaches to the application of mouse models in cancer research.”

National Cancer Institute Research Programs (http://www.cancer.gov/researchprograms/) Exit NIEHS Website
National Cancer Institute (NCI) online publications and the latest cancer information through CancerNet servers. Covers information about types of cancers, treatments, prevention and support resources.

Oncolink (http://www.oncolink.com/) Exit NIEHS Website
University of Pennsylvania cancer specialists on a mission to help cancer patients, families, health care professionals and the general public get accurate cancer-related information at no charge.

Oncomine Cancer Microarray Database (http://www.oncomine.org) Exit NIEHS Website
Bioinformatics tool to query and visualize cancer microarray data for a gene or cancer type. The database currently includes 90 studies encompassing 6,372 microarray data sets for 18 cancer types. Information includes normal tissue, clinical, pathological, and molecular subtype cancer analyses. A correlation module aids in identifying genes that are co-expressed with a gene of interest in a specific cancer type. Requires free registration to use.
