Greetings everyone: I have an investigator who is attempting to extract nuclei from unfixed postmortem human cortex and isolate neuronal nuclei from those of other cell types (astrocytes and oligodendrocytes) by sorting. The methylation patterns of the genomic DNA from these neuronal nuclei will then be analyzed. Does anyone have any tips or wisdom they can add with processing the cells for sorting? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Best regards, -Rich Richard F.
