Transcriptome Profiling of Archived Sectioned Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded (AS-FFPE) Tissue for Disease Classification
BACKGROUND Archived tissues from previously completed prospective trials represent invaluable resource for biomarker development. However, such specimens are often stored as sections on glass slides, in which RNA is severely degraded due to prolonged air exposure. We evaluated whether a proportion of archived sectioned formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (AS-FFPE) tissues yield transcriptome profi...
متن کاملToward deciphering proteomes of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues
Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue specimens comprise a potentially valuable resource for both prospective and retrospective biomarker discovery. Unlocking the proteomic profile of clinicopathological FFPE tissues is a critically essential step for annotating clinical findings and predicting biomarkers for ultimate disease prognosis and therapeutic follow-up.
متن کاملTissue lithography: Microscale dewaxing to enable retrospective studies on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections
We present a new concept, termed tissue lithography (TL), and its implementation which enables retrospective studies on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections. Tissue lithography uses a microfluidic probe to remove microscale areas of the paraffin layer on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded biopsy samples. Current practices in sample utilization for research and diagnostics require comp...
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 کاملA novel method for analyzing formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue sections by mass spectrometry imaging
Significant advances have been made in the past decade in the field of mass spectrometry imaging (MS imaging). It is a relatively unestablished technique aimed at direct, high-sensitive and spatially exclusive detection of biological molecules from the surface of tissue sections, so that semi-quantitative distribution map of the analyte can be reconstituted from the mass spectra obtained. There...
