We developed data management solutions, catalogs, and data models to optimize and support data collection, distribution, and application. Furthermore, ontologies were used to facilitate data integration from multiple sources, and Minimum Information About BIobank Data Sharing (MIABIS) was defined as accessible to all patients. To enhance data integrity, we conducted retrospective and prospective follow-up studies. <b><i>Results:</i></b> We completed infrastructure upgrades to match technical solutions and research demands. An information management software with six primary functional divisions was developed for data governance. We optimized the database structure and changed the biospecimen accumulation model from biospecimen-based to patient-centered and service-oriented. Subsequently, we specified 85 attributes of MIABIS to describe the biobank contents. A dual-pillar approach was adopted to expand the biobank's data in collaboration with other institutions, and MIABIS served as a bridge for both vertical and horizontal networks. From 2003 to 2021, we collected a total of 156,997 patient biospecimens/data from 20 cancer types, matching 53,113 cases from follow-up surveys. In addition, we supplied more than 40,000 biospecimens/data points for above 300 scientific research projects. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> An appropriate information platform for a biobank is fundamental to data collection, distribution, and application, particularly in the context of data-intensive research. We implemented a standardized scientific data structure to fulfill the research requirements.

Researchers in industry and academic biobanks can have different incentives and requirements that the other party is often not familiar with. This survey was conducted in an attempt to increase understanding of these fundamental knowledge gaps that may be obstacles to optimal collaboration between academia and industry. <b><i>Key Findings from the Survey:</i></b> There were 53 total respondents. Although this was a global survey, most respondents (<i>n</i> = 29) were from North America, likely reflecting overall investment in research in this region and possibly increased interactions between academia and industry as well. Most respondent academic biobanks collect multiple sample types with most (>90%) collecting both biofluids (including blood) and tissue. Most of the participating academic biobanks were aware that they were not (35%), or only partially (35%), using the full potential of their inventory. One option for increasing utilization rates is by collaborating with industry partners. The main issues when working with industry were perceived to be a combination of challenges including contractual (55%), consent restrictions (45%), timelines (41%), or time pressure (36%). Time taken to put agreements together was also a significant hurdle (54%), together with the industry's administrative requirements (36%). <b><i>Brief Conclusions from the Survey:</i></b> To take advantage of opportunities for joint collaboration, it is essential that the parties involved build trust. The first step is to understand the different requirements and needs of the other party and to establish efficient structures for joint cooperation. This survey has highlighted key areas to be addressed as the next steps for strengthening bonds between academic biobanks and industry partners.</p>","PeriodicalId":55358,"journal":{"name":"Biopreservation and Biobanking","volume":" ","pages":"338-346"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142584964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the actual clinical application of hMSCs necessitates hypothermic storage for long periods, a process that requires the use of non-toxic and efficient cryo-reagents capable of maintaining high viability and differentiating properties after thawing. Current cryopreservation methods are based on cryoprotectant agents (CPAs) containing dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO), which have been shown to be toxic for clinical applications. In this study, we describe a simple and effective trehalose (TRE)-based solution to cryo-store human umbilical cord-derived MSCs (UC-MSCs) in liquid nitrogen. Cells viability, identity, chromosomal stability, proliferative and migration capacity, and stress response were assessed after cryopreservation in TRE as CPA, testing different concentrations by itself or in combination with ethylene glycol (EG). Here we show that TRE-stored UC-MSCs provided lower cell recovery rates compared with DMSO-based solution, but maintained good functional properties, stability, and differentiating potential. The best cell recovery was obtained using 0.5 M TRE with 10% EG showing no differences in the osteogenic, adipogenic, and chondrogenic differentiation capacity. A second cycle of cryopreservation in this TRE-based solution had no additional impact on the viability and morphology, although slightly affected cell migration. Furthermore, the expression of the stress-related genes, <i>HSPA1A</i>, <i>SOD2</i>, <i>TP53</i>, <i>BCL-2</i>, and <i>BAX</i>, did not show a higher response in UC-MSCs cryopreserved in 0.5 M TRE + 10% EG compared with DMSO.
