Understanding environment-disease connections: An introduction to the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD)

The Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD; http://ctd.mdibl.org) is a freely available database that is dedicated to promoting the exploration and development of testable hypotheses about the effects of the environment on human health. CTD integrates manually curated, cross-species information about gene environment (G×E) interactions and environment disease and gene disease relationships with public datasets such as functional annotations, molecular pathways and literature. Analytical and statistical tools are provided to facilitate access to and interpretation of CTD data. CTD is a unique resource for enhancing understanding about the mechanisms of chemical actions and the etiologies of environmentally influenced diseases.
