Sorting Intracellularly marked Cells for RNA extraction

Hi,

	Has anyone heard of a successful way to stain and sort for an
intracellular marker (e.g. Ki-67), followed by isolating intact RNA?

Our problem so far has been the permeabilization/fixation step, which
appears to result in degraded RNA after cell sorting. I would

 be happy to provide more detail about what we've tried but wanted to send
out this first in case there is someone doing this specific

type of work and could relate what works for them and/or suggest references.


Regards

Don Walker
