Robustness of Next Generation Sequencing on Older Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Tissue
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies are used to detect somatic mutations in tumors and study germ line variation. Most NGS studies use DNA isolated from whole blood or fresh frozen tissue. However, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues are one of the most widely available clinical specimens. Their potential utility as a source of DNA for NGS would greatly enhance population-...
متن کاملTackling formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor tissue with next-generation sequencing.
Most tumor samples available for clinical genotyping are formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE), but there has been relatively little published on the suitability of such samples for next-generation sequencing approaches. A new study by Wagle and colleagues shows that a combination of hybridization-capture and deep sequencing yields high-quality data from FFPE specimens.
متن کاملOptimization of RNA Extraction from Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Blocks for Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing
Purpose Breast cancer has a high prevalence in Korea. To achieve personalized therapy for breast cancer, long-term follow-up specimens are needed for next-generation sequencing (NGS) and multigene analysis. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples are easier to store than fresh frozen (FF) samples. The objective of this study was to optimize RNA extraction from FFPE blocks for NGS. Met...
متن کاملMassively parallel sequencing of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues
Formalin fixation followed by paraffin embedment (FFPE) is the most common method of preserving resected tissues. FFPEs can be easily stored, retrieved and processed for further analysis when compared to the logistical complications of processing fresh frozen (FF) material. Conversely, they may not be ideal for sequencing because of the nucleic acid fragmentation and artifacts introduced by fix...
متن کاملUnravelling the proteome of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue.
Biofluid detectable biomarkers that originate at the site of diseased tissues would be advantageous, in that, they may provide mechanistic information concerning the manifestation and progression of the disease. Unfortunately, tissue biopsies are precious samples that can generally be acquired in small amounts due to the invasive nature of the sample collection. One of the foundations of pathol...
