Current Collection and Storage Methods Method Pros Cons
Fresh High RNA quality and yields Requires immediate extraction of tissue
Liquid Nitrogen (LN2)
FFPE
High RNA quality and yields
Preserves tissue morphology, widely available with clinically annotated data
Requires pulverization of tissue and rapid homogenization to minimize RNA degradation Crosslinking and chemical modification degrades and fragments nucleic acids, resulting in compromised quality of molecular data
RNAlater® Suitable for both short term and long term storage at different temperatures
Passive diffusion of aqueous sulfate salts requires small sample size. Yields denatured proteins only
RNAlater®-ICE Stabilizes RNA in tissues during the transition of tissue from frozen to a non-frozen state
Alcohol based solution requires overnight storage at -20°C prior to RNA isolation. Yields denatured proteins only
AllProtect Tissue Reagent
Stabilizes DNA, RNA, and protein for both short term and long term storage at different temperatures
Proteins are denatured thus, requiring separate tissue for the isolation of native proteins
PAXgene Tissue System
Stabilizes DNA , RNA and histomorphology for both short term and long term storage at different temperatures
Does not yield protein products

A Study in Progress
Data is presented as zero timepoint and is preliminary
Three tissues collected to date (one each lung, kidney, and colon)
A total of 5 tissues from each of the two classifications (high and low RNase activity)will be collected for the study

Preliminary Results
No major differences in quality of RNA due to stabilization methods, with the exception of FFPE
All collection methods demonstrated good RNA integrity by QC arrays, with exception of FFPE
Hierarchical clustering suggested three distinct groups: 1) Fresh, LN2 and RNAlater®-ICE, 2) RNAlater® and 3) FFPE suggesting that RNA stabilization treatments may influence gene expression patterns.

Ongoing Studies
Collection of additional samples to perform both targeted and whole genome transcriptome analysis to identify changes in gene expression profiles included by tissue stabilization media over a period of two (2) years.
Evaluation of new tissue and nucleic acid stabilization media such as AllProtect and PAXGene on downstream molecular analysis.

Study Benefits
Completion of our studies is expected to illustrate the influence of stabilization media on gene expression
patterns, and to identify the most effective stabilization media thus enabling the standardization of biorepository
specimen collection and handling
