Fluorescence in situ hybridization to Y chromosomes in decondensed human sperm nuclei 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A J Wyrobek T Alhborn R Balhorn L Stanker D Pinkel 《Molecular reproduction and development》1990,27(3):200-208
Human sperm nuclei were isolated with mixed alkyltrimethylammonium bromide and dithiothreitol (MATAB/DTT) and decondensed by treatments with lithium diiodosalicylate (LIS), sodium chloride, or Tris salts. Concentrations as low as 1 mM LIS induced measurable nuclear swelling compared to 600 mM required for the other two salts. As measured by image analyses, the projected nuclear area increased linearly up to approximately fivefold with LIS concentrations up to 10 mM. Swollen nuclei also maintained the elliptical shapes characteristic of the human sperm head. Expanded sperm nuclei of three men were hybridized with a fluorescently labeled 3.4 kb Y chromosome-specific repetitive DNA probe; 50.1% of the nuclei of each semen sample showed fluorescent labeling over a part of the nucleus indicating presence of the Y chromosome. In comparison, unswollen sperm did not yield reliable hybridization signals. This procedure is suitable for determining the proportion of human sperm with Y chromosomes and can be used to evaluate sperm separation techniques. The availability of probes specific for most human chromosomes suggests that this procedure may find general application in studies of sperm chromosomal constitution. 相似文献

Diagnosis of bovine freemartinism by fluorescence in situ hybridization on interphase nuclei using a bovine Y chromosome-specific DNA probe 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A heifer co-twin to a bull, in most cases, is a sterile freemartin which needs to be identified and culled from replacement stock. Various methods are available for the diagnosis of freemartinism, but none is ideal in terms of speed, sensitivity, or specificity. The present study was thus conducted to develop and validate a satisfactory fluorescence in situ hybridization procedure on interphase nuclei (I-FISH) for identifying the bovine XX/XY-karyotypic chimerism, the hallmark of freemartinism. A 190-bp DNA FISH probe containing the bovine male-specific BC1.2 DNA sequence was synthesized and labeled with digoxigenin by PCR. The FISH was performed on metaphase spreads and interphase nuclei of blood lymphocytes. Upon FISH, the probe expectedly bound to the nucleus of the male cell or to a region of the p12 locus of the Y chromosome. Twenty-four young heterosexual twins (Holstein-Friesian and Korean Cattle breeds; 10 pairs and 4 singletons) were analyzed in the present study; all but three exhibited the XX/XY-karyotypic chimerism to varying extents in both I-FISH and karyotyping. One heifer was identified to have 100% XX cells by both analyses, whereas two bulls were judged as 100% XY- and XX/XY-chimeric karyotypes by karyotyping and I-FISH, respectively. Nevertheless, the ratios of the XY to XX cells in these animals were very similar between the two analyses. In conclusion, the present I-FISH was a rapid and reliable procedure that can be used for early-life diagnosis of bovine freemartinism. 相似文献

Fluorescence in situ hybridization and Y ring chromosome 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Summary Investigations by fluorescence in situ hybridization and a Y-specific probe (Y190) of a male patient with a Y ring chromosome, 46,X,r(Y) showed four bright fluorescent spots within the ring. Thus, using this technique, it is possible to suggest that the ring originates from the duplication of the short arms of the Y chromosome. 相似文献

X and Y specific probes were identified in order to apply the fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) technique to bovine spermatozoa. For Y chromosome detection, the BRY4a repetitive probe, covering three quarters of the chromosome, was used. For X chromosome detection, a goat Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC) specific to the X chromosome of bovine and goats and giving a strong FISH signal was used. Each probe labeled roughly 45% of sperm cells. The hybridization method will be useful for evaluating the ratio of X- and Y- bearing spermatozoa in a sperm sample and consequently can be used to evaluate the efficiency of sperm sorting by different techniques such as flow cytometry. 相似文献

An easy assay for quantification of Y chromosome-bearing sperm (Y-sperm) is needed, especially to monitor sperm separation techniques. In the present study a tritiated bovine male-specific DNA fragment was tested for identification of Y-sperm by in situ hybridization. A protocol for in situ hybridization to bovine sperm was developed and used to study the proportion of Y-sperm of 12 bulls. The usefulness of the method in optimization of sperm separation procedures is illustrated through analysis of fractions of sperm separated by Percoll density gradient centrifugation. 相似文献

To date, there is no commercially available Y chromosome probe that can be used for fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for the male rhesus monkey. We have recently generated a probe for FISH with high specificity to the short arm of the rhesus monkey Y chromosome. In this study, we further describe a method that keeps the integrity of tissue-specific antigenic structures for immunofluorescence staining subsequent to FISH on paraffin-embedded rhesus monkey tissues. We have examined this technique in combination with an epithelial cell-specific marker, cytokeratin 8/18 (CK8/18), on various tissues, including jejunum, liver, kidney, and pancreas. CK8/18 and Y chromosome signals were distinctly seen simultaneously on epithelial cells from the same tissue section from male but not female monkeys. These studies indicate that our FISH immunofluorescence technique can be reliably used to identify and phenotype male cells in paraffin-embedded rhesus monkey tissues. 相似文献

Reactivated movement of the axonemes in demembranated spermatozoa with decondensed nuclei allows decondensation to be monitored in vitro with minimal disruption, and provides access to the nucleus for ultrastructural investigation and experimental manipulation. In the present study, fresh liquefied semen samples with sperm concentrations > or = 13 x 10(6)/ml were diluted 1:10 with a demembranating solution containing 0.01-0.022% Triton X-100. Inter-sample variation in the concentration of Triton X-100 required to permeabilize the sperm membrane was observed as judged by the ability of the spermatozoa to be reactivated by ATP but not by an ATP-free control solution, with the extent of demembranation being checked by transmission electron microscopy. After exposure to DTT and heparin, coordinated and sometimes progressive movement of partially decondensed spermatozoa occurred in a reactivating solution. Unlike ram, human sperm heads required decondensation with heparin. An unusual ultrastructural feature of the decondensing human sperm nuclei, not previously reported, was the appearance of dense globular material extruding from the nucleus. Enzymatic treatment of the sections with protease but not with deoxyribonuclease removed this material, which was presumably protamine. 相似文献

Quantification of methanogens by fluorescence in situ hybridization with oligonucleotide probe 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
To monitor anaerobic environmental engineering system, new method of quantification for methanogens was tested. It is based on the measurement of specific binding (hybridization) of 16S rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probe Arc915, performed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and quantified by fluorescence spectrometry. Average specific binding of Arc915 probe was 13.4±0.5 amol/cell of autofluorescent methanogens. It was 14.3, 13.3, and 12.9 amol/cell at the log phase, at stationary phase and at the period of cell lysis of batch culture, respectively. Specific binding of Arc915 probe per 1 ml of microbial sludge suspension from anaerobic digester linearly correlated with concentration of autofluorescent cells of methanogens. Coefficient of correlation was 0.95. Specific binding of oligonucleotide probe Arc915 can be used for the comparative estimation of methanogens during anaerobic digestion of organic waste. Specific binding of Arc915 probe was linear function of anaerobic sludge concentration when it was between 1.4 and 14.0 mg/ml. Accuracy of the measurements in this region was from 5 to 12%. 相似文献

A microwave-stimulated in situ hybridization technique using biotin-labeled DNA probe is described. Both hybridization reaction and the detection of the biotin label (with a alkaline phosphatase or immunofluorescence method) has been performed in the microwave oven. All procedures are completed within one hour. The described method was applied for identification of nucleic acid sequences of human immunodeficiency virus in human cell lines. The resolution and the intensity of the signal are as good as from a standard technique with overnight incubation of the probe. Because of the simplicity and speed of the technique, this procedure can be used in a number of other applications. 相似文献

Physical chromosome mapping by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is among the major lines of research on the human genome (as well as genomes of numerous other organisms). To localize particular genes or anonymous DNA sequences on individual chromosomes or chromosome regions, FISH was developed in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when the International Human Genome Project and the Russian program Human Genome were launched. Now FISH continues to play a prominent part in studies of the human genome. The review considers the major steps of FISH development in Russia with special emphasis on the key roles of the Institute of Cytology and Genetics (Novosibirsk) and Engelhardt Institute of Molecular Biology (Moscow). Physical mapping of human chromosomes 3 and 13 by FISH is described in detail. The promotion of FISH in Russia contributed to the progress in the related fields such as comparative animal genomics (ZOO-FISH) and studies of plant chromosomes. 相似文献

AIMS: To develop oligonucleotide probes for visualizing bacteria belonging to Enterobacteriaceae. METHODS AND RESULTS: 24-mer oligonucleotide probe (probe D) was designed by comparison of 16S rDNA sequences of 35 species of Enterobacteriaceae, eight species of Vibrionaceae and six species of Pasteurellaceae. The sequence of the probe corresponding to the complementary sequence of a position 1251-1274 of Escherichia coli 16S rRNA was found to be a highly conserved region of 16S rDNA sequence in Enterobacteriaceae different from that of Vibrionaceae and Pasteurellaceae. The fluorescent dye-labelled probe was tested for the specificity by in situ hybridization and epifluorescence microscopy. Seventy-six out of 78 strains belonging to Enterobacteriaceae were visualized in an optimal hybridization condition. No bacterial strains belonging to Vibrionaceae (31 strains) and Gram-positive bacteria (three strains) were visualized. CONCLUSIONS: In situ hybridization using probe D allows the detection of bacterial cells belonging to Enterobacteriaceae without false positive reaction. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: In situ hybridization techniques using the probe D are potential tools for detecting Enterobacteriaceae in food and water samples. 相似文献

The feasibility of utilizing fluorescence in situ hybridization with chromosome-specific DNA probes as the basis of an assay to detect aneuploidy and aneuploidy-inducing agents in interphase human lymphocytes has been investigated. The assay involves counting the number of hybridization regions in interphase cells to determine the number of copies of a specific chromosome of interest, 22,000 interphase nuclei from untreated 72-h lymphocyte cultures were examined following hybridization with probes for chromosomes 1, 7, 9, 17, X or Y. The combined frequencies of nuclei containing 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 hybridization regions for the various autosomal chromosomes were 0.004, 0.084, 0.909, 0.003 and 0.001, respectively. Based on these frequencies, scoring 1000-2000 cells should allow detection of aneuploid cells with a 0.012 frequency of hyperdiploidy or a 0.11 frequency of hypodiploidy for a specific chromosome of interest (alpha = 0.05, beta = 0.80). This difference in test sensitivity is related to the higher frequency of cells with one apparent spot. A comparison of the ratio of hybridization region to nuclear area in the two-dimensional images used for this analysis indicates that an overlap of the two regions probably accounts for the high frequency of apparent monosomy observed in normal cells. Treatment with the aneuploidy-inducing chemicals, colchicine, vincristine sulfate and diethylstilbestrol resulted in significant dose-related increases in the number of nuclei containing 3 or more hybridization regions. Treatment with the clastogen sodium arsenite produced only a minor increase in apparently hyperdiploid cells whereas treatment with ionizing radiation, another potent clastogen, resulted in a significant increase in nuclei containing multiple hybridization regions. These results suggest that ionizing radiation is an aneuploidy-inducing agent under these conditions although chromosomal breakage within the hybridization region may account for a portion of the increased frequency of nuclei with multiple hybridization regions. These results indicate that the use of fluorescence in situ hybridization with DNA probes is capable of detecting aneuploid cells occurring at relatively low frequencies within a population of cells. Assays based on these techniques should facilitate a more rapid identification of aneuploidy-inducing environmental and therapeutic agents. 相似文献

We have applied fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) to assess the presence of numerical chromosome aberrations in fresh specimens of human solid tumors of varying histology. For this purpose, a set of 12 biotinylated chromosome-specific, repetitive alpha-satellite DNA probes (for chromosomes 1, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 15, 16, 17, 18, X and Y) were hybridized directly to isolated interphase nuclei. Utilizing this approach, we found numerical chromosome changes in all tumors. FISH ploidy profiles were in accordance with flow cytometric DNA histograms of these tumor cells. 相似文献

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with chromosome-specific DNA libraries was performed on samples from eight patients with de novo chromosomal duplications. In five cases, the clinical phenotype and/or cytogenetic evaluations suggested a likely origin of the duplicated material. In the remaining three cases, careful examination of the GTG-banding pattern indicated multiple possible origins; hybridization with more than one chromosome-specific library was performed on two of these cases. In all cases, FISH conclusively identified the chromosomal origin of the duplicated material. In addition, the hybridization pattern was useful in quantitatively delineating the duplication in two cases. 相似文献

An in vivo 5'-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdUrd) labeled DNA probe was used for in situ DNA-RNA hybridization. BrdUrd was incorporated into plasmid DNA by inoculating E. coli with Luria-Bertani (LB) culture medium containing 500 mg/L of BrdUrd. After purification of the plasmid DNA, specific probes of the defined DNA fragments, which contained the cloned insert and short stretches of the vector DNA, were generated by restriction endonuclease. The enzymatic digestion pattern of the BrdUrd-labeled plasmid DNA was the same as that of the non-labeled one. BrdUrd was incorporated in 15%-20% of the total DNA, that is, about 80% of the thymidine was replaced by BrdUrd. Picogram amounts of the BrdUrd-labeled DNA probe itself and the target DNA were detectable on nitrocellulose filters in dot-blot spot and hybridization experiments using a peroxidase/diaminobenzidine combination. The BrdUrd-labeled DNA probe was efficiently hybridized with both single stranded DNA on nitrocellulose filters and cellular mRNA in in situ hybridization experiments. Through the reaction with BrdUrd in single stranded tails, hybridized probes were clearly detectable with fluorescent microscopy using a FITC-conjugated monoclonal anti-BrdUrd antibody. The in vivo labeling method did not require nick translation steps or in vitro DNA polymerase reactions. Sensitive, stable and efficient DNA probes were easily obtainable with this method. 相似文献

This protocol describes the application of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to three-dimensionally (3D) preserved tissue sections derived from intact plant structures such as roots or florets. The method is based on the combination of vibratome sectioning with confocal microscopy. The protocol provides an excellent tool to investigate chromosome organization in plant nuclei in all cell types and has been used on tissues of both monocot and dicot plant species. The visualization of 3D well-preserved tissues means that cell types can be confidently identified. For example, meiocytes can be clearly identified at all stages of meiosis and can be imaged in the context of their surrounding maternal tissue. FISH can be used to localize centromeres, telomeres, repetitive regions as well as unique regions, and total genomic DNAs can be used as probes to visualize chromosomes or chromosome segments. The method can be adapted to RNA FISH and can be combined with immunofluorescence labeling. Once the desired plant material is sectioned, which depends on the number of samples, the protocol that we present here can be carried out within 3 d. 相似文献

This study was carried out to determine whether Y-bearing porcine spermatozoa could be detected by in situ hybridization using a digoxigenin (Dig)-labelled DNA probe specific to the Y chromosome produced by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). A conventional PCR (with Dig-dUTP) was performed using a set of oligonucleotide primers (5′-AAGTGGTCAGCGTGTCCATA-3′ and 5′-TTTCTCCTGTATCCTCCTGC-3′) for 236 bp fragment of porcine male-specific DNA sequence and 1.25 × 104 template white blood cells obtained from a boar. When fluorescence in situ hybridization with the Dig-labelled DNA probe was applied to the metaphase chromosome spreads prepared from both boar and gilts, the fluorescein signal was only detected on the long arm of the Y chromosome. In addition, immunocytochemical detection with the Dig-labelled DNA probe and alkaline phosphatase-labeled anti-Dig was applied to both sperm nuclei pretreated with dithiothreitol and white blood cells; 51% of sperm nuclei and 96% of white blood cells obtained from boar were labelled, whereas none of white blood cells obtained from gilts were labelled with the Dig-labelled DNA probe. The results indicated that in situ hybridization with porcine male-specific DNA probe produced by PCR made possible the direct visualization of Y-bearing porcine spermatozoa by in situ hybridization. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献
