Systematic analysis of gene expression patterns associated with postmortem interval in human tissues

Abstract Postmortem mRNA degradation is considered to be the major concern in gene expression research utilizing human postmortem tissues. A key factor in this process is the postmortem interval (PMI), which is defined as the interval between death and sample collection. However, global patterns of...
