Heterogeneity Influences Cancer Immunohistochemistry Results

Many gastric cancer (GC) patients are with inoperable lesions and endoscopic biopsy becomes the only available approach to obtain tumor tissues for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) assessment. Unlike resected specimens, biopsy specimens are influenced by many factors and in turn more difficult to manipulate. More...

FISH Method Developed for Analyzing Immune Response

Researchers have developed a method to analyze hundreds of thousands of cells at once using FISH-Flow for concurrent detection of mRNA and protein markers in single cells using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and flow cytometry. The new protocol currently evaluates immune responses and could lead to faster and more accurate diagnoses of illnesses, including tuberculosis (TB) and cancers. More...
