Multiplex quantitative measurement of mRNAs from fixed tissue microarray sections.
The development of prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers, such as those from gene expression studies, requires independent validation in clinical specimens. Immunohistochemical analysis on tissue microarrays (TMAs) of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue is often used to increase the statistical power, and it is used more often than in situ hybridization, which can be technically limiting. He...
متن کاملMeasurement of Thickness within Sections by Quantitative Electron Microscopy
To apply the method of quantitative electron microscopy to the measurement of mass in thin sections, the thickness of the section at or very near the structure to be studied must be known. Dowex anion exchange resin AG 1 x 2, stained with phosphotungstic acid (PTA) at pH 6.4, was used as a thickness standard which could be embedded and sectioned. The sectioned PTA-Dowex appeared uniformly stain...
متن کاملQuantitative PCR for the diagnosis of cutaneous leishmaniasis from formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded skin sections.
The present report describes a real-time PCR-based procedure to reliably determine the quantity of Leishmania amastigotes in relation to the amount of host tissue in histological skin sections from canine and equine cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis. The novel diagnostic Leishmania-PCR has a detection limit of <0.02 amastigotes per μg tissue, which corresponds well to the detection limit of immu...
متن کاملQuantitative Microscopic Analysis of Histological Sections of Brain Tissue
This article reviews methods for quantifying the abundance of histological features in thin tissue sections of brain such as neurons, glia, blood vessels, and pathological lesions. The sampling methods by which quantitative measures can be obtained are described. In addition, methods are described for determining the spatial pattern of an object and for measuring the degree of spatial correlati...
متن کاملMultiplex quantitative real-time PCR of laser microdissected tissue.
This chapter describes a method for the rapid assessment of gene copy number in laser microdissected material using multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Here a putative oncogene (ZNF217) was evaluated in a series of colon tumors, but the method is applicable to any locus for which a nucleic acid sequence is available. The preparation, laser microdissection, and optimum storage o...
