[Histonet] Pancreas RNA

[Madeline.Branflick <@t> sanofi-aventis.com]

Hello:
Does anyone have experience working with pancreas tissue for downstream
LCM?  Particularly FFPE and frozen collection procedures/protocols.  We
have tried both formats, and were unsuccessful in maintaining RNA
integrity.  We've tried to get around the endogenous ribonuclease issue
by snap freezing in chilled isopentane, or a direct fixation in 10% NBF.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
