Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization Assay for c-MYC and Centromere 8 in MCF-10A and HuMECs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
c-MYC and centromere 8 copy number status of MCF-10A cell populations was determined by dual hybridisation with a Vysis LSI SpectrumOrange c-MYC Probe (Abbott Molecular, Maidenhead, UK; cat. no.: 05J545-011) and a CEP8 SpectrumGreen Probe (Abbott Molecular; cat. no.: 06J37-018) as recommended by the suppliers. c-MYC (orange), centromere 8 (aqua) and IGH (green) copy number status of HuMECs was determined using the Abbott IGH/MYC/CEP8 Tri-colour Dual Fusion Translocation Probe (Abbott Molecular). Slides were heated to 72 °C for 5 min and then incubated for 24 h at 37 °C in a humidified hybridisation chamber (HYBrite; Abbott Molecular). After hybridisation, slides were counterstained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (Vector Laboratories, Peterborough, UK). FISH was scored with an Olympus BX-61 fluorescence microscope (Olympus, Southend-on-Sea, UK) with a ×100 oil objective. Images were analysed using the CytoVision 7.2 SPOT counting system (Leica Microsystems, Gateshead, UK). A minimum of 100 (for MCF-10A) or 70 (for HuMECs) nuclei were scored per test by two independent analysts.

FISH analysis was performed by the Cancer Cytogenetics department at Newcastle Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, according to established protocols. The Cytocell MYC ‘breakapart’ Probe set was hybridised to nuclei as recommended by the suppliers. Slides were heated to 72°C for 5 min and then incubated for 24 hr at 37°C in a humidified hybridisation chamber (HYBrite; Abbott Molecular). After hybridisation, slides were counterstained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (Vector Laboratories, Peterborough, UK). FISH was scored with an Olympus BX-61 fluorescence microscope (Olympus, Southend-on-Sea, UK) with a × 100 oil objective. Images were analysed using the CytoVision 7.2 SPOT counting system (Leica Microsystems, Gateshead, UK). A minimum of 100 nuclei were scored per test by two independent analysts.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
