Motor neuron disease (disorder)

UK MND Collections (Cell lines) - patient samples

Year Started: 2003

The UK MND Collections (formerly known as the UK MND DNA Bank) was established to provide the international research community with a resource for research into motor neurone disease (MND). These samples are available for research into MND and associated conditions such as fronto-temporal dementia only. The Collections contain >3,000 biological samples and clinical information; as well as epidemiology data from 400 participants, including people with MND, controls and family members. The DNA Bank - whole genome DNA from over 3,000 blood samples and clinical information (divided into a minimum and extended dataset). The Cell Lines Collection - sub set of the DNA Bank samples as EBV-transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines and peripheral blood lymphocytes. The Epidemiology Collection - >200 patient and matched control blood samples with extensive environmental and lifestyle data (self-report questionnaires and telephone interviews).
