About NBDC Human Database

An enormous amount of human data is being generated with advances in next-generation sequencing and other analytical technologies. We therefore need rules and mechanisms for organizing and storing such data and for effectively utilizing them to make progress in the life sciences.

To promote sharing and utilization of human data while considering the protection of personal information, the Database Center for Life Science (DBCLS) of the Joint Support-Center for Data Science Research, Research Organization of Information and Systems (ROIS-DS) created a platform for sharing various data generated from human specimens, which are available for publicly access in cooperation with the DNA Data Bank of JapanDDBJ logo ddbj 2013.

You can apply to use or submit human data through this website.

Violators of the guidelines who have not submitted a report on the deletion of Controlled-access data shall be disclosed here.

SUMMARY

Aims: Okinawa Bio-information Bank (OBi) is a bio resource bank that integrates human genomic DNA, plasma (or serum), and clinical information to elucidate the unique genetic background and disease susceptibility mechanisms of Okinawans.

Methods: We obtained imputed genotyping data for up to 9,235,975 SNPs. Association studies for the serum levels of ALT, AST, and GGT were performed in OBi and BioBank Japan (BBJ) separately , then these association data were combined by meta-analyses.

Participants/Materials: OBi Ryukyu population (n=8,715), BBJ Ryukyu population (n=7,004)

SUMMARY

Aims: Pediatric solid tumors are a diverse group of neoplasms, and accurate diagnosis of tumor subtype is necessary. The detection of disease-specific fusion genes such as EWSR1-FLI1 in Ewing Sarcoma and PAX3/7-FOXO1 in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, can improve the diagnosis of pediatric solid tumors. In addition, recent advances in techniques have identified several subtype-defining somatic genetic alterations, including internal tandem duplication of BCOR in clear cell sarcoma of the kidney, and MYOD1 p.Leu122Arg (p.L122R) in spindle cell/sclerosing rhabdomyosarcoma. In this study, we performed transcriptome analysis using RNA-sequencing to assess its clinical utility in the differential diagnosis of pediatric solid tumors.

Methods: We performed RNA-sequencing in 47 children who suspected of sarcoma and analyzed disease-specific gene alterations (include novel gene alterations).

Participants/Materials: Forty-seven children, who were suspicious of sarcoma.
