Abstract

Laser-assisted microdissection is a powerful tool for the analysis of morphologically defined cell populations. We report here that the combination of microdissection and real-time RT-PCR technologies together with an optimized RNA microscale extraction procedure allows the reproducible determination of gene expression levels in archival formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue samples.
