RNA profiling of EpCAM-positive cells in bone marrow of early breast cancer (EBC) patients
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We developed a novel approach to isolate tumor cells with high purity from bone marrow which was subjected to immunomagnetic enrichment using EpCAM beads followed by fluorescence activated cell sorting (IE/FACS) to isolate EpCAM-positive cells away from leukocytes (CD45+). For RNA profiling, QPCR analysis was performed on sixty four (64) cancer-related genes using Taqman® low density arrays. For non-tumor controls, RNA profiling was performed on matched leukocytes (CD45+) isolated from the same enriched bone marrow samples from 17 of the 30 patients.
