Title:Recent developments in StemBase: a tool to study gene expression in human and murine stem cells
Creators Name:Sandie, R. and Palidwor, G.A. and Huska, M.R. and Porter, C.J. and Krzyzanowski, P.M. and Muro, E.M. and Perez-Iratxeta, C. and Andrade-Navarro, M.A.
Abstract:BACKGROUND: currently one of the largest online repositories for human and mouse stem cell gene expression data, StemBase was first designed as a simple web-interface to DNA microarray data supplied through the Canadian Stem Cell Network to facilitate the discovery of gene functions relevant to stem cell control and differentiation. FINDINGS: since its creation, StemBase has grown in both size and scope into a system with analysis tools that examine either the whole database at once, or slices of data, based on tissue type, cell type or gene of interest. As of September 1, 2008, StemBase contains gene expression data (microarray and Serial Analysis of Gene Expression) from 210 stem cell samples in 60 different experiments. CONCLUSIONS: StemBase can be used to study gene expression in human and murine stem cells and is available at http://www.stembase.ca.
