Because of the steadily increasing and already manually unmanageable total number of biomarker-related articles in biomedical research, there is a need for intelligent systems that extract all relevant information from biomedical texts and provide it as structured information to researchers in a user-friendly way. To address this, BIONDA was implemented as a free text mining-based online database for molecular biomarkers including genes, proteins and miRNAs and for all kinds of diseases. The contained structured information on published biomarkers is extracted automatically from Europe PMC publication abstracts and high-quality sources like UniProt and Disease Ontology. This allows frequent content updates.
