mRNA transcript quantification in archival samples using multiplexed, color-coded probes
BACKGROUND A recently developed probe-based technology, the NanoString nCounter™ gene expression system, has been shown to allow accurate mRNA transcript quantification using low amounts of total RNA. We assessed the ability of this technology for mRNA expression quantification in archived formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) oral carcinoma samples. RESULTS We measured the mRNA transcript...
متن کاملMultiplexed spectral signature detection for microfluidic color-coded bioparticle flow.
Here, we report a high-speed photospectral detection technique capable of discriminating subtle variations of spectral signature among fluorescently labeled cells and microspheres flowing in a microfluidic channel. The key component used in our study is a strain-tunable nanoimprinted grating microdevice coupled with a photomultiplier tube (PMT). The microdevice permits acquisition of the contin...
متن کاملNoroviruses in Archival Samples
Application of recent techniques to detect current pathogens in archival effluent samples collected and concentrated in 1987 lead to the characterization of norovirus GGII.6 Seacroft, unrecognized until 1990 in a clinical sample. Retrospective studies will likely increase our knowledge about waterborne transmission of emerging pathogens.
متن کاملDiscovery and quantification of transcript variants with SQUARETM mRNA-Seq
The vast majority of genes are alternatively spliced and produce a variety of mature transcripts. These transcript variants often encode proteins with different structures and functions, and changes in the expression of variants from the same gene can lead to profound biological effects (reviewed in 1). Various transcriptional events, including splicing from alternative 5’ or 3’ splice-sites, e...
متن کاملAllele quantification using molecular inversion probes (MIP)
Detection of genomic copy number changes has been an important research area, especially in cancer. Several high-throughput technologies have been developed to detect these changes. Features that are important for the utility of technologies assessing copy number changes include the ability to interrogate regions of interest at the desired density as well as the ability to differentiate the two...
