Proteome Analysis of Formalin - Fixed and Paraffin - Embedded Tissue
Title of dissertation: PROTEOME ANALYSIS OF FORMALIN-FIXED AND PARAFFINEMBEDDED TISSUE Tong Guo, Doctor of Philosophy, 2008 Dissertation directed by: Professor Cheng S. Lee Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Because of the long history of the use of formalin as the standard fixative for tissue processing in histopathology, these archival formalin-fixed and paraffinembedded (FFPE) tissues ...
متن کاملGene expression profiling from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumors of pediatric glioblastoma.
PURPOSE Gene expression profiling has proved crucial for understanding the biology of cancer. In rare diseases, including pediatric glioblastoma (pGBM), the lack of readily available fresh frozen (FF) material limits the feasibility of this analysis, as well as its validation, on independent data sets, a step needed to ensure relevance, mandating the use of alternate RNA sources. To overcome th...
متن کاملComparison of the miRNA expression profiles in fresh frozen and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tonsillar tumors
MicroRNAs are considered as promising prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers of human cancer since their profiles differ between tumor types. Most of the tumor profiling studies were performed on rarely available fresh frozen (FF) samples. Alternatively, archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples are also well applicable to larger-scale retrospective miRNA profiling studies. ...
متن کاملmiRNA expression profiling of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) hereditary breast tumors
Hereditary breast cancer constitutes only 5-10% of all breast cancer cases and is characterized by strong family history of breast and/or other associated cancer types. Only ~ 25% of hereditary breast cancer cases carry a mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene, while mutations in other rare high and moderate-risk genes and common low penetrance variants may account for additional 20% of the cases. Thu...
متن کاملComparing Platforms for Messenger RNA Expression Profiling of Archival Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded Tissues.
Archival formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue specimens represent a readily available but largely untapped resource for gene expression profiling-based biomarker discovery. Several technologies have been proposed to cope with the bias from RNA cross-linking and degradation associated with archival specimens to generate data comparable with RNA from fresh-frozen materials. Direct comp...
