Tissue microarray: A simple technology that has revolutionized research in pathology

Journal of Postgraduate Medicine | April 1, 2008| | Copyright

In the post-genomic era, with the availability of vast information on the simultaneous expression levels of thousands of genes by high-density cDNA microarrays, a platform for high-throughput analysis of tissue specimens was inevitable. TMA technology though initially utilized primarily for basic research, typically in target validation of cDNA and other high-throughput approaches, is now becoming an invaluable tool for clinical research. [1],[2] In cancer research, with rapid increase in discovery of new genes, and their involvement in multiple pathways, there is an increasing demand for ...
