Calibration of Densitometry in Radio-isotopic in Situ Hybridization
Densitometry on autoradiographs of sections processed for in situ hybridization provides a direct measure for the in situ quantification of mRNA. Gelatin spots, containing different concentrations of the radioisotope, and processed in parallel with the tissue sections, can be used as a sensitive model to calibrate the densitometric measurements. The shape of the gelatin spots was shown to be ci...
متن کاملDouble-staining chromogenic in situ hybridization as a useful alternative to split-signal fluorescence in situ hybridization in lymphoma diagnostics.
BACKGROUND Malignant lymphomas are classified based on morphology, immunophenotype, genetics and clinical features. The pathological diagnosis is generally considered difficult and prone to mistakes. Since non-random chromosomal translocations are specifically involved in specific entities, their detection is an important adjunct for increasing the reliability of the diagnosis. Recently, split-...
متن کاملAutomatic signal classification in fluorescence in situ hybridization images.
BACKGROUND Previous systems for dot (signal) counting in fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) images have relied on an auto-focusing method for obtaining a clearly defined image. Because signals are distributed in three dimensions within the nucleus and artifacts such as debris and background fluorescence can attract the focusing method, valid signals can be left unfocused or unseen. This ...
متن کاملMultiplexed in situ hybridization using hybridization chain reaction.
CHOI ET AL. l DESCRIBE PROGRAMMABLE IN SITU AMPLIFIERS based on the mechanism of hybridization chain reaction (HCR) that enable simultaneous mapping of multiple target mRNAs within whole-mount zebrafish embryos. In contrast to traditional in situ hybridization approaches, HCR in situ amplification is performed for all target mRNAs simultaneously, so the experimental timeline is independent of t...
متن کاملAlkaline fixation drastically improves the signal of in situ hybridization.
In situ hybridization (ISH) is widely used to detect DNA and RNA sequences within the cell and tissue sections. The important step in performing this technique is tissue fixation. We investigated the influence of the pH of the fixative on the outcome of ISH. Our studies indicate that alkaline formaldehyde dramatically increases the ISH signal with RNA probes. The increase in signal was observed...
