Abstract

In recent years, next-generation sequencing (NGS) became widely used in molecular pathology. Comprehensive mutational profiling improved diagnosis and prognosis, as well as the identification of therapeutically relevant genetic alterations. However, the vast majority of studies analyzing tissue samples use DNA extracted from bulk tissue or only manually microdissected specimens. Laser-assisted microdissection offers the possibility of isolating morphologically defined small tissue compartments (like individual glands) or even of single cells for further molecular analysis. Even formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue specimens can be used for laser-assisted microdissection. Combining these two innovative powerful methodological approaches provides invaluable insights into the genetic profile of any cell type and tissue compartment of interest, contributing to a better understanding of fundamental biological processes and disease-specific mechanisms.In this chapter, a detailed protocol is provided for microdissection of human mammary adenomyoepithelioma tissue specimens and subsequent targeted resequencing of a panel of cancer-related genes using IonTorrent/PGM technology.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 January 2019.
All research outputs
#20,483,282
of 23,045,021 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#9,975
of 13,194 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#378,267
of 442,426 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#1,194
of 1,499 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,045,021 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,194 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 442,426 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,499 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
