Digital processing of in situ hybridization images: identification and spatial allocation of specific labels

In situ hybridization (ISH) method allows to reveal specific genes expression, identify specific cell types and detect areas or tissues, displaying differential gene expression. This work describes a standardized procedure of digital image processing that allows detailed analyses of ISH preparations...

description In situ hybridization (ISH) method allows to reveal specific genes expression, identify specific cell types and detect areas or tissues, displaying differential gene expression. This work describes a standardized procedure of digital image processing that allows detailed analyses of ISH preparations. We have developed a software that allows through a graphical interface (a) to reliably identify and quantify ISH labels, (b) to locate each label within the image reference system (c) to assemble the total series of images obtained from a complete histological sections of a biological structure, and d) to locate all the labels within a unique reference system that corresponds to the complete biological structure. As each ISH label is positioned within a spatial coordinates system coinciding with an intrinsic biological reference axis, this software can be used to analyze the spatial pattern of distribution of specific genes expression during the embryonic development. The software allows the construction of numerical space series that can be used to analyze the variability and the dynamics of genes expression as a function of space and/or time during the embryonic development.
