In Situ Hybridization Tissue Sections Protocols

Protocol for detection of even-skipped transcripts in drosophila embryos with PCR/DIG-labeled DNA probes. This protocol has been used to detect the transcript distribution of a number of genes by in situ hybridization, including evenskipped and seven-up, in whole mount Drosophila embryos, and engrailed Antennapedia in whole mount grasshopper embryos. Includes: Probe labeling; Evaluation of labeling reaction; Preparation of embryos, hybridization and detection.

Protocol for detection of mRNAs on cryosections of the cardiovascular system using DIG-labeled RNA probes. Protocol was optimized from a protocol using 35S-labeled RNA probes. It allows to detect the expression of low abundant mRNAs in the cardiovascular system, e.g. of the proinflammatory cytokine GM-CSF in normal human coronary arteries, and of IL6 and gp130 in human failing hearts. The protocol can be combined with immunohistochemistry. - [Read Detection of mRNAs on Cryosections of the Cardiovascular System Using DIG-Labeled RNA Probes]
