|February 25, 2011
Summary
The Breast Cancer Database (BCDB) offers a comprehensive, integrated resource for breast cancer research. It consolidates
Area of Science:
- Bioinformatics
- Genomics
- Cancer Research
Background:
- Existing breast cancer resources lack integrated 'omics' data.
- A need exists for a centralized, updated information source.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop the Breast Cancer Database (BCDB) as a comprehensive resource.
- To integrate gene, function, and drug information for breast cancer.
- To provide a user-friendly platform for researchers.
Main Methods:
- Data compiled from biomedical research literature.
- Information includes genes, their functions, and drug molecules.
- Database designed for platform independence and ease of use.
Main Results:
- BCDB provides quick overviews of breast cancer disease.
- Users can search by gene name, protein name, or drug name.
- Data links to NCBI, PDB, and PubMed for extended information.
Conclusions:
- BCDB serves as a unique web resource for breast cancer research.
- It offers integrated gene sequences, drug structures, and literature data.
- The database is freely accessible online.

01:12Statistical Software for Data Analysis and Clinical Trials
Statistical software is pivotal in data analysis and clinical trials by providing tools to analyze data, draw conclusions, and make predictions. These software packages range from simple data management applications to complex analytical platforms, supporting various statistical tests, models, and simulation techniques. Their significance lies in their ability to handle vast amounts of data with precision and efficiency, enabling researchers to validate hypotheses, identify trends, and make...
01:21Cancer Survival Analysis
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...
02:12What is Cancer?
Cells and tissues must meticulously coordinate their activities for the normal functioning of the human body. Therefore, they exhibit socially responsible behavior - resting, growing, dividing, differentiating, or dying - for the organism’s benefit. Cancer arises when cells divide uncontrollably and invade other tissues or organs.
Although people have known about cancer for centuries, it was only in 1761 that Giovanni Morgagni of Padua performed a detailed autopsy of patients who died from...

01:05Cancer-Critical Genes II: Tumor Suppressor Genes
Genes usually encode proteins necessary for the proper functioning of a healthy cell. Mutations can often cause changes to the gene expression pattern, thereby altering the phenotype.
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
Such genes that act...
