Biomarker discovery for colon cancer using a 761 gene RT-PCR assay

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) is widely recognized to be the gold standard method for quantifying gene expression. Studies using RT-PCR technology as a discovery tool have historically been limited to relatively small gene sets compared to other gene expression platforms such as microarrays. We have recently shown that TaqMan RT-PCR can be scaled up to profile expression for 192 genes in fixed...
