RNA from FFPE samples was extracted using two different methods, Ambion and Agencourt, and its quality was determined by profiling starting total RNA on Bioanalyzer and by amplifying increasing size fragments of beta actin (ACTB) and claudin 3 (CLDN3) by reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction.
