Applications of DNA Flow Cytometry and Fluorescence In situ Hybridization Using a Chromosome-specific DNA Probe on Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections of Primary Malignant Melanomas

We have applied DNA flow cytometric analysis to paraffin-embedded tissue sections of primary malignant melanomas. Conventionally, flow cytometric analysis of paraffin-embedded tissue sections has been done by the method of Hedley et al. We added ultrasound treatment to the method of Hedley et al. and a lower value of coefficient of variation was shown. Furthermore, a new technique, fluorescence in situ hybridization with a chromosome-specific repetitive DNA probe, was used for the analysis of chromosomal numerical aberrations in the same paraffin-embedded tissue sections. The DNA flow cytometric analysis showed that in 8 cases six primary malignant melanomas were of the aneuploid pattern and two cases of lentigo maligna (melamona in situ) were of the diploid pattern. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, the two cases with the diploid pattern had spots/nucleus of 1.28 and 1.12, and those with the aneuploid pattern had spots/nucleus from 2.01 to 2.27. Only one nodular melanoma in an aneuploid case showed spots/nucleus of 1.71. These data indicate that fluorescence in situ hybridization with chromosome-specific repetitive DNA probes can serve as a cytogenetic tool for the analysis of interphase nuclei of solid human tumors and may be useful for the study of tumor cell heterogeneity.

Nucleic acid spot hybridization with nonradioactive labeled probes in screening for human papillomavirus DNA sequences

We examined 161 human tissue samples using the spot hybridization technique with nonradioactive labeled DNA probes of human papillomavirus (HPV). Whole cells were spotted on nitrocellulose filters; DNA of the cells was denatured and fixed to the filter. Then the DNA spots were hybridized to nonradioactive labeled DNA and monitored by a sandwich immunoenzymatic reaction. This technique is simple, sensitive, specific, requires no special equipment, and can be used in clinical settings. HPV DNA was found in 92% of samples in which, on the basis of histologic and colposcopic criteria, its presence was suspected, as well as in 31 samples where it was not suspected.     

Optimization of non-isotopic in situ hybridization on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded material using digoxigenin-labelled probes and transgenic tissues.

The sensitivity of non-isotopic in situ hybridization (NISH), particularly on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) clinical tissues, has been the subject of controversy. Generally, NISH has been regarded as being less sensitive than radiolabelled procedures, although some reports have contradicted this. Accordingly, tissues from mice which were transgenic for variable amounts of the human alpha-1-antitrypsin gene were used to optimize the NISH procedure and to estimate the sensitivity. This approach showed that prolonged incubation of slides in final substrate resulted in high sensitivity--about 13 kb of target DNA. However, this prolonged incubation crucially depended on achieving minimal non-specific background staining. Many factors affected the degree of background staining, but five were particularly important. First, the method of mounting cut sections onto slides. Second, the length of the probe (ideally less than 400 bp). Third, the procedure for proteolytic digestion. Fourth, the denaturation technique, and fifth, the quality of the dextran sulphate used in the hybridization mix. The optimized protocol showed variable patterns of mRNA distribution in the transgenic mouse livers, while DNA distribution appeared uniform.

Triploid origin of the gibel carp as revealed by 5S rDNA localization and chromosome painting

5S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) was isolated and sequenced from the gibel carp Carassius auratus gibelio with 162 chromosomes and crucian carp Carassius auratus with 100 chromosomes, and fluorescent probes for chromosome localization were prepared to ascertain the ploidy origin and evolutionary relationship between the two species. Using fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH), major 5S rDNA signals were localized to the short arms of three subtelocentric chromosomes in the gibel carp and to the short arms of two subtelocentrics in the crucian carp. In addition, some minor signals were detected on other chromosomes of both species. Simultaneously, six chromosomes were microdissected from the gibel carp metaphase spreads using glass needles, and the isolated chromosomes were amplified in vitro by degenerate oligonucleotide primed-polymerase chain reaction (DOP-PCR). Significantly, when the DOP-PCR-generated probes prepared from each single chromosome were hybridized, three same-sized chromosomes were painted in each gibel carp metaphase, whereas only two painted chromosomes were observed in each crucian carp metaphase spread. The data indicate that gibel carp is of triploid origin in comparison with diploid crucian carp.
