Comparative Ultrastructural Localization of Neuropeptide mRNAs using Tritiated and Biotinylated Oligodeoxynucleotide Probes

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIH,volume 58))

Abstract

Hybridization histochemical techniques have been widely developed during the last decade, in particular for two main applications: first the localization and the cartography of the cells expressing a given mRNA, and second the quantitative studies of variations of mRNA contents in different physiological or experimental conditions.
