there is no good quality RNA from PPFE? it's all very degraded I'm afraid.

if you want to check whether you have something workable, you could try designing a quality pcr, similar to what exists for DNA. (https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/content/dam/sigma-aldrich/docs/Sigma/General_Information/qualitative_pcr_from_ffpe.pdf)

which basically would be a multiplex for a few PCR's from a range of sizes

Hi

I think the authors from this study got decent RNA-seq data from FFPE treated tissue. So they must have had some kind of "good quality RNA".

here is the tittle and the pubmed id:

Next-generation RNA sequencing of archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded urothelial bladder cancer

Good luck
