EDITORIALS Tissue Microarrays for Hypothesis Generation
Decades of hypothesis-driven research have led to the discovery of oncogenes and tumor suppressors that affect carcinogenesis. With the advent of powerful genomic and proteomic microarray techniques, a different scientific paradigm is emerging—one in which hypotheses are generated based on the evaluation of global gene expression in cells or tissues. Tissue microarrays are also useful to interr...
متن کاملTissue microarrays in urology.
The TMA is a high-throughput technique to assess thousands of different cores of pathological tissue simultaneously using morphological and molecular analyses, e.g. immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization, whilst maintaining an accurate and efficient method of identifying each specific section. Using this technique an economy in cutting and staining can also be used, with an unprecedente...
متن کاملtissue microarrays, a revolution in pathology research
a long-lasting problem in the analysis of tissue samples is the time-consuming and repetitive process of histologic preparation and pathologic review of tissue sections. these two critical factors, innate nonuniformity in preparation and subjectivity of analysis, therefore limit the scientific and statistical thoroughness of tissue based studies. employing tissue microarray (tma) technique prov...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor binding protein 2: gene expression microarrays and the hypothesis-generation paradigm.
A major goal of modern medicine is to identify key genes and their products that are altered in the diseased state and to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying disease development, progression, and resistance to therapy. This is a daunting task given the exceptionally high complexity of the human genome. The paradigm for research has historically been hypothesis-driven despite the fact ...
متن کاملTissue microarrays: construction and use.
Tissue microarrays (TMAs) enable high-throughput tissue analysis by selecting a large number of -paraffin-embedded donor tissue block cores and transferring these tissue cores into a positionally encoded array in the recipient TMA block. Once TMAs are constructed, a variety of analysis may be performed on the arrays including histochemical, immunohistochemical, or immunofluorescent staining, an...
