Abstract
- Summary The past decade has witnessed an extremely rapid increase in the number of newly established stem cell lines. However, due to the lack of a standardized format, data exchange among stem cell line resources has been challenging, and no system can search all stem cell lines across resources worldwide. To solve this problem, we have developed the Integrated Collection of Stem Cell Bank data (ICSCB) (http://icscb.stemcellinformatics.org/), the largest database search portal for stem cell line information, based on the standardized data items and terms of the MIACARM framework. Currently, ICSCB can retrieve >16,000 cell lines from four major data resources in Europe, Japan, and the United States. ICSCB is automatically updated to provide the latest cell line information, and its integrative search helps users collect cell line information for over 1,000 diseases, including many rare diseases worldwide, which has been a formidable task, thereby distinguishing itself from other database search portals.<br />Highlights • Searches >16,000 stem cell lines in Europe, Japan, and US major databases • Data formats standardized by minimum items in MIACARM guidelines • Searches specific stem cell lines according to disease, donor, tissue, etc. • User-friendly website accesses >6,000 diseased stem cell lines from 36 countries<br />This new and largest stem cell data portal can retrieve >16,000 cell lines from four major stem cell data resources in Europe, Japan, and the United States, is automatically updated to provide the latest cell line information, and, through its integrative search engine, can collect cell line information from specific donors with rare diseases worldwide.
