Evaluation and validation of candidate endogenous control genes for real-time quantitative PCR studies of breast cancer
1 Jan 2007
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Real-time quantitative PCR (RQ-PCR) forms the basis of many breast cancer biomarker studies and novel prognostic assays, paving the way towards personalised cancer treatments. Normalisation of relative RQ-PCR data is required to control for non-biological variation introduced during sample preparation. Endogenous control (EC) genes, used in this context, should ideally be expressed constitutively and...
