Impact of RNA Extraction and Target Capture Methods on RNA Sequencing Using Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin Embedded Tissues
2019-05-31
Abstract excerpt
Formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissues are commonly used biospecimen for clinical diagnosis. However, RNA degradation is extensive when isolated from FFPE blocks making it challenging for whole transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq). Here, we examined RNA isolation methods, quality metrics, and the performance of RNA-seq using different approaches with RNA isolated from FFPE and fresh frozen (FF) tissues. We e...
