RNA-sequencing of formalin fixed human primary melanoma tissue. RNA-sequencing of formalin fixed human primary melanoma tissue

We identify the differences in nervous system related genes and pathways inside melanoma and in the tissure adjacent to melanoma tumor. Overall design: Formalin fixed primary human melanoma tissue sections from a single tumor were microdissected into samples containing tumor center, tumor border or tissue adjacent to the tumor. Three separate areas of the tumor were used to generate nine samples, which were analyzed by RNA sequencing.
