Fast isolation of RNA to detect expression of tumor markers
The expression status of several tumor‐related proteins is of great interest in clinical examination and research. As a completion to conventional antibody staining, RT‐PCR is often used today.

Zusammenfassung: | The expression status of several tumor‐related proteins is of great interest in clinical examination and research. As a completion to conventional antibody staining, RT‐PCR is often used today. Reliable isolation of RNA from a low number of cells is very often a critical stage of such an examination. We demonstrate here a simple and fast method to isolate RNA from only 10,000 cells and applied it to the detection of CEA, c‐ERB‐B2, and mdr‐1 as often studied models for tumor markers. J. Clin. Lab.
