Popis: The Gastric Cancer (Biomarkers) Knowledgebase (GCBKB) (http://biomarkers.bii.a-star.edu.sg/background/gastricCancerBiomarkersKb.php) is a curated and fully integrated knowledgebase that provides data relating to putative biomarkers that may be used in the diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer. It is freely available to all users. The data contained in the knowledgebase was derived from a large literature source and the putative biomarkers therein have been annotated with data from the public domain. The knowledgebase is maintained by a curation team who update the data from a defined source. As well as mining data from the literature, the knowledgebase will also be populated with unpublished experimental data from investigators working in the gastric cancer biomarker discovery field. Users can perform searches to identify potential markers defined by experiment type, tissue type and disease state. Search results may be saved, manipulated and retrieved at a later date. As far as the authors are aware this is the first open access database dedicated to the discovery and investigation of gastric cancer biomarkers.
