In-situ Hybridization for miRNA Detection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PCR amplifications were performed with gene-specific antisense primers tailed with a T7 RNA polymerase binding site (see Additional file 9 for primer sequences). The resulting DNA fragments were used directly as templates for synthesizing antisense ribo-probes incorporating UTP–digoxigenin (Roche) as the label with the aid of a T7 Maxi Script kit (Ambion). For miR156 and miR529 detection, 0.02 M of a 5′ digoxigenin-labeled LNA probe complementary to the target (see Additional file 9 for primer sequences) was used. In situ hybridization experiments were carried out as described by [59 (link)]. Detection was performed using the Vector Blue Alkaline Phosphatase Substrate Kit III (Vector Laboratories). Slides were observed and photographed using an Evolution MP5.0 color Media Cybernetics camera in conjunction with a Leica DMRB microscope, and images were processed using Photoshop CS6. Each experiment was repeated at least twice, using at least two sample series (i.e., two paraffin blocks) each time, and the reported spatial patterns were observed in at least two repeats.

RNA antisense probes were labeled with UTP-digoxigenin (11209256910, Roche Applied Science, Indianapolis, IN, United States) and used for whole-mount in situ hybridization (ISH) as described previously (Merino et al., 1998 (link)). Samples were treated with 60 μg/ml proteinase K for 25 min at 21°C for Bmp7, Fgfr1, Fgfr2, Fgfr3, Mkp3, Msx2, and Wif. Bambi required 70 μg/ml proteinase K for 28 min at 25°C; 60 μg/ml was used for 22 min at 21°C for Bmp4 and Dkk. Fgf8 was treated with 15 μg/ml for 20 min at 21°C. The hybridization temperature was 68°C, and post-hybridization washes were at 70°C for all genes. The signal of ISH was visualized with BM-Purple substrate for alkaline phosphatase (Roche Applied Science). Images were acquired with the Nikon Stereoscope Fluorescence Microscope SMZ1500 (Nikon Corporation, NY, United States) or in AxioZoom V.16 microscope (Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) using Zen lite software (Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany).

Whole-mount in situ hybridization was performed as previously described (deCarvalho et al., 2014 (link); Gamse et al., 2002 (link)). In brief, larvae and dissected brains were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (P6148, Sigma-Aldrich) in 1 X PBS (phosphate-buffered saline) at 4 °C overnight. To synthesize RNA probes, the following restriction enzymes and RNA polymerases were used: lratd2a (BamHI/T7), fos (NotI/SP6), slc5a7a (NotI/SP6), kctd12.1 (EcoRI/T7) (deCarvalho et al., 2013 (link); Hong et al., 2013 (link)). Probes were labeled with UTP-digoxigenin (11093274910, Roche) and samples incubated at 70 °C in hybridization solution containing 50% formamide. Hybridized probes were detected using alkaline phosphatase-conjugated antibodies (Anti-Digoxigenin-AP, #11093274910, and Anti-Fluorescein-AP, #11426338910, Sigma-Aldrich) and visualized by staining with 4-nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT, #11383213001, Roche), 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-phosphate (BCIP, #11383221001, Roche) and 2-(4-Iodophenyl)–3-(4-nitrophenyl)–5-phenyltetrazolium Chloride (INT, #I00671G, Fisher Scientific).

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.
