Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Archived formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded specimens represent an important resource for pharmacogenomic analysis in retrospective clinical studies but the quality of results from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples is of concern due to the fact of the degradation of DNAs and RNAs from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues. METHODS: In the present study, we used DNA from fresh frozen as well...
