Improvement of tissue preparation for laser capture microdissection: application for cell type-specific miRNA expression profiling in colorectal tumors.
2010
Background
Laser capture microdissection (LCM) has successfully isolated pure cell populations from tissue sections and the combination of LCM with standard genomic and proteomic methods has revolutionized molecular analysis of complex tissue. However, the quantity and quality of material recovered after LCM is often still limited for analysis by using whole genomic and proteomic approaches. To procure high quality and quantity of RNA after LCM, we optimized the procedures on tissue preparations and applied the approach for cell type-specific miRNA expression profiling in colorectal tumors.
