Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of human primary normal and cancer tissues. Amplification of reverse-transcribed mRNA was carried out on pools of normal human tissue as indicated and on a pool of prostate cancer samples, as described in Methods, and measured by SYBR-green staining and fluorescence quantification. Results were calculated relative to a set of standards and expressed here as copy number of original transcripts per ng of mRNA.
