RNA FISH Services

RNA FISH Technology

In situ RNA detection is becoming more and more important for analyzing gene expression in and between intact cells in tissues, and in situ RNA detection techniques (ISH and FISH) have existed for many years. Since its launch, RNA ISH analysis has become a valuable method for locating and quantifying specific nucleic acid sequences in individual cells and tissues, providing information on tissue specificity, cell specificity, and subcellular gene expression at different developmental stages in biology, as well as normal tissues And cells in the diseased tissue. With the development of technology, new branch technologies and technology integration are gradually produced. The FISH technique, which uses fluorescently labeled oligonucleotide probes to hybridize with cellular RNA in situ, has become a powerful technique for quantifying the copy number of a single transcript and the spatial distribution of these molecules in a single cell. In this method, the cells are fixed and permeabilized, and a small amount of fluorescently labeled oligonucleotide probes are introduced into the cells, the sequence of which is complementary to different regions of the RNA of interest. The base pairing between these probes and their target RNA facilitates the specific binding of these probes to their targets, and each target uses multiple probes to concentrate many probes in a small volume of cells occupied by each copy of the RNA Inside, it produces bright fluorescent spots, which can be distinguished from cell background and stray probes. These points can then be counted to determine the number of copies of the target RNA and its location in individual cells and intact tissues.
