Gene expression analysis of immunostained endothelial cells isolated from formaldehyde-fixated paraffin embedded tumors using laser capture microdissection--a technical report.
Laser capture microdissection (LCM) allows microscopic procurement of specific cell types from tissue sections that can then be used for gene expression analysis. In conventional LCM, frozen tissues stained with hematoxylin are normally used to the molecular analysis. Recent studies suggested that it is possible to carry out gene expression analysis of formaldehyde-fixated paraffin embedded (FF...

Laser capture microdissection (LCM) allows for the microscopic procurement of specific cell types from tissue sections that can then be used for gene expression analysis. According to the recent development of the LCM technologies and methodologies, the LCM has been used in various kinds of tissue specimens in dental research. For example, the real-time polymerase-chain reaction (PCR) can be pe...
متن کاملLaser microdissection in clinical cardiovascular research.
Laser microdissection (LMD) is an accurate and fast method to procure pure populations of cells from complex, heterogeneous tissues under direct microscopic visualization. It can be applied to a wide range of cell preparation, including paraffin-embedded material. The morphology of the captured cells is retained, and DNA, RNA, and proteins can be extracted for molecular analysis. The potential ...
متن کاملEnhanced molecular analyses by combination of the HOPE-technique and laser microdissection
As part of an investigation aimed at illuminating the possibilities and limits of the HOPE-fixation and paraffin-embedding technique we here describe a novel procedure which was developed in order to combine the benefits of the HOPE-technique with the capabilities of laser microdissection. The presented procedure avoids the need for amplification of template-RNA thus facilitating reliable and r...
