Combination of non-radioactive and radioactive in situ hybridization with immunohistochemistry: a new method allowing the simultaneous detection of two mRNAs and one antigen in the same brain tissue section.

Abstract: We describe here a simple method for combining nonradioactive and radioactive in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry on the same brain tissue section. This approach was first developed on the well-characterized hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal system, facilitating the optimization of the triple-labeling procedure and the verification of labeling specificity. We report the simultaneous detection of vasopressin (VP) mRNA with a digoxigenin-labeled oligonucleotide, oxytocin (OT) mRNA with a %-labeled oligonuc… Show more

“…In our case, the different origin of the antisera used (i.e., sheep polyclonal antiserum for digoxigenin-labeled probe and rabbit polyclonal antisera for pituitary hormones) allowed the simultaneous incubation of both antisera, therefore reducing the procedure time. As previously reported (Trembleau et al, 1993;Ichiyama et al, 1989). our results confirm that there is no interaction between the peroxidase and alkaline phosphatase detection systems.…”

“…Indeed, this transcription factor appears to be highly conserved in vertebrates (Martinez-Barberi et al, 1994;Elsholtz et al, 1992). Double-labeling techniques are useful and precise methods for determining co-localization of mRNA and proteins (Trembleau et al, 1993). In our case, the different origin of the antisera used (i.e., sheep polyclonal antiserum for digoxigenin-labeled probe and rabbit polyclonal antisera for pituitary hormones) allowed the simultaneous incubation of both antisera, therefore reducing the procedure time.…”

“…First, to successfully combine ICC and ISHH, tissues must be fixed sufficiently to retain proteins of interest, but not so heavily fixed that the mRNA is not readily accessible to probes. We found, in agreement with previous studies (31,32), that perfusion-fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS satisfies these criteria. Penetration of the probe did not pose a problem, even when we used a cRNA probe that was approximately seven or eight times longer than synthetic deoxynucleotidyl probes used in previous studies of perfused tissues (31,32).…”
