Protocol for Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH)
Fluorescence in situ hybridization detects specific DNA or RNA sequences inside fixed cells or tissue sections by hybridizing fluorescently labeled nucleic-acid probes to complementary target sequences, allowing the target’s copy number, chromosomal position, spatial distribution, or transcript abundance to be visualized microscopically. DNA-FISH detects genomic loci, chromosomal gains/losses, amplifications, deletions, and rearrangements, while RNA-FISH detects RNA molecules or transcript localization; in cancer cells, mouse tumors, neurons, organoids, macrophages, or drug-screening samples, the readout is fluorescent puncta, fusion/split signals, or localized RNA signal interpreted relative to validated controls.
