Multiplex 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...
متن کاملRCL2, a new fixative, preserves morphology and nucleic acid integrity in paraffin-embedded breast carcinoma and microdissected breast tumor cells.
Methacarn and RCL2, a new noncrosslinking fixative, were compared to formalin-fixed or frozen tissue samples of the same invasive breast carcinoma and were evaluated for their effects on tissue morphology and immunohistochemistry as well as DNA and RNA integrity. The histomorphology of methacarn- or RCL2-fixed paraffin-embedded tumors was similar to that observed with the matched formalin-fixed...
متن کاملComparison of histologic stains for use in PCR analysis of microdissected, paraffin-embedded tissues.
We evaluated the effect of six different histologic stains on the productivity of PCR amplification of DNA isolated from paraffin-embedded tissue samples. The tissue was collected from glass slides by microdissection techniques, whereby tiny portions of tissue are visually identified through a microscope and selectively resected for subsequent DNA extraction and PCR amplification. We found that...
متن کاملQuantitative Real-Time PCR
Unlike classical end-point analysis PCR, real-time PCR provides the data required for quantification of the target nucleic acid. The results can be expressed in absolute terms by reference to external quantified standards or in relative terms compared to another target sequence present within the sample. Absolute quantification requires that the efficiency of the amplification reaction is the s...
متن کاملReal time quantitative PCR.
We have developed a novel "real time" quantitative PCR method. The method measures PCR product accumulation through a dual-labeled fluorogenic probe (i.e., TaqMan Probe). This method provides very accurate and reproducible quantitation of gene copies. Unlike other quantitative PCR methods, real-time PCR does not require post-PCR sample handling, preventing potential PCR product carry-over conta...
