Cryopreservation and Culture of Testicular Tissues: An Essential Tool for Biodiversity Preservation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Biopsies extracted from brain cancer patients often display degraded ribosomal RNA, which makes them unusable in transcriptomic experiments. This has not been properly documented in previous works aimed at refining the molecular classification of brain cancer. OBJECTIVE:To determine RNA integrity in a large...
