IN SITU HYBRIDIZATION ON FROZEN SECTIONS
Protocol by Josiah N. Wilcox, Ph.D.

  1. Remove slides from freezer, thaw for 5 min. at 55°C.
  2. Fix 10 min. in 4% paraformaldehyde, 4°C.
  3. Wash 5 min. in 0.5x SSC, RT.
  4. Immerse slides in proteinase K solution , 1-5 µg/ml in RNase Buffer for 10 min., RT. The amount of proteinase K needs to be optimized with each new preparation. Once optimized aliquots can be frozen down and used for some time.
  5. Wash for 10 min. in 0.5xSSC, RT.
  6. PREHYBRIDIZATION: Dry around sections with Kimwipe, lay slides flat in an air tight box with a piece of filter paper which has been saturated with Box Buffer (4xSSC, 50% formamide) on the bottom. Cover each section with 100µl of rHB2 without probe (can use 50µl if the tissue is small). Incubate at 42°C for 1-3 hours.
  7. HYBRIDIZATION MIX: for 35S-labeled riboprobe.

    Assuming that you have used 100µl of prehybridization buffer combine the following: 2.0µl probe per slide (stock solution 300,000 cpm/µl in 1XTE) 1.0 µl tRNA per slide (50 mg/ml stock) Heat 3min, 95°C immediately add 17.0µl ice cold rHB2 per slide, vortex, place on ice. (Adjust volumes if you have used less than 100ul for prehybridization).

  8. HYBRIDIZATION: Add 20µl of above hybridization mix to each 100µl of prehybridization solution directly into the bubble covering the section. Incubate overnight at 55°C. (Adjust volume if you have used less than 100µl for prehybridization).
  9. Wash 2 times 10 min. each in 2x SSC with betaMercaptoEtOH-EDTA, RT. (discard to radioactive WASTE)
  10. Immerse in RNase A solution (20µg/ml in RNase buffer) 30 min, RT. (discard to radioactive WASTE)
  11. Wash 2x 10 min each in 2x SSC with betaMercaptoEtOH-EDTA ,RT. (discard to radioactive WASTE)
  12. Wash 2 hours in 4 liters of 0.1x SSC with betaMercaptoEtOH-EDTA , 55°C.
  13. Wash 2 times 10 min. each in 0.5x SSC without betaMercaptoEtOH or EDTA, RT.
  14. Dehydrate 2 min. each in 50%, 70%, and 90% ethanol containing 0.3M NH4Ac.
  15. Dry in vacuum desiccator (3-4 hrs.), store with dessicant until autoradiography.
  16. Dip in Kodak NTB2 nuclear emulsion diluted 1:1 with water at 42°C, dry for 2 hours in the dark, expose in the dark at 4°C with desiccant for 2-8 weeks.
  17. Develop at 15°C:

    a) 3 min. Kodak D19 developer, diluted 1:1 with water
    b) 20 seconds in water stop rinse
    c) 3 min. Kodak Fixer, full strength
    d) Wash 3 times 5 min. each in water
    e) Counterstain with Hematoxylin and Eosin
