GSM8508528: Control S5; Homo sapiens; RNA-Seq
Paired retinoblastoma and adjacent retinal tissue samples were collected from seven enucleated retinoblastoma eyes. Histopathological evaluation by at least two experienced ophthal-mic pathologists confirmed the presence of retinoblastoma in all seven cases and adjacent retinal tissue in five cases. In the remaining two eyes, normal retinal tissue could not be iso-lated. For RNA sequencing, tumor and control tissue were carefully isolated before analysis using a macrodissection protocol 10 to remove unwanted tissue prior to analysis. FFPE samples were shipped in tubes at room temperature to the sequencing provider (Gen-XPro, Frankfurt, Germany)
