What Challenges Exist in mRNA Expression Analysis in Cancer?
Despite its potential, mRNA expression analysis in cancer faces several challenges:
1. Heterogeneity: Tumors are often heterogeneous, which can complicate the interpretation of mRNA expression data. 2. Sample Quality: The quality of RNA extracted from clinical samples can affect the accuracy of mRNA expression measurements. 3. Data Interpretation: The vast amount of data generated requires sophisticated bioinformatics tools for meaningful interpretation.
