GlossaryIn Situ Hybridization (ISH)

method to detect specific DNA/RNA sequences in tissues

In Situ Hybridization (ISH) is a laboratory technique used to detect specific DNA or RNA sequences within a tissue or cell sample. By using labeled complementary probes that bind to the target sequences, ISH allows researchers to visualize the precise location of genes or gene expression directly in the context of the tissue's structure. This method is valuable for studying genetic activity and diagnosing diseases at the molecular level.
