Human infections caused by viral pathogens trigger a complex gamut of host responses that limit disease, resolve infection, generate immunity, and contribute to severe disease or death. Here, we present experimental methods and multi-omics data capture approaches representing the global host...
The Human Islet Research Network (HIRN) is a large consortia with many research projects focused on understanding how beta cells are lost in type 1 diabetics (T1D) with a goal of finding how to protect against or replace the loss of functional beta cells. The consortia has multiple branches of...
The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study is searching for factors influencing the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in children. Research has shown that there are certain genes that correlate to higher risk of developing T1D, but not all children with these genes...
The Diabetes Autoimmunity Study in the Young (DAISY) seeks to find environmental factors that can trigger the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in children. DAISY follows children with high-risk of developing T1D based on family history or genetic markers. Genes, diets, infections, and...
Machine learning is a core technology that is rapidly advancing within type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. Our Human Islet Research Network (HIRN) grant is studying early cellular response initiating β cell stress in T1D through the generation of heterogenous low- and high-throughput molecular...
Omics Lethal Human Virus, SARS-CoV Experiment SM001 New uploads pending The purpose of this experiment was to evaluate the human host response to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) wild-type virus. Sample data was obtained for 20 week-old C57BL/6J mouse lung tissue infected...
A total of 172 children from the DAISY study with multiple plasma samples collected over time, with up to 23 years of follow-up, were characterized via proteomics analysis. Of the children there were 40 controls and 132 cases. All 132 cases had measurements across time relative to IA. Sampling was...
