Abstract excerpt
Pathology archives contain vast resources of clinical material in the form of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples. Owing to the methods of tissue fixation and storage, the integrity of DNA and RNA available from FFPE tissue is compromized, which means obtaining informative data regarding epigenetic, genomic, and expression alterations can be challenging. Here, we have investigated the utility...
