In situ hybridization (ISH) is one of the fundamental methods in developmental biology and neurobiology. Their first ISH protocols were reported in 1969 (Gall and Pardue, Proc Natl AcadSci USA 63:378-83, 1969). Since several decades, ISH based on the specific hybridization of 100-2000 nucleotides long probes enabled the localization of DNA/RNA sequences in tissues and cells with high cellular resolution. But sometimes a limited sensitivity notably in mineralized tissues (Obernosterer et al., Nature Protocols 2:1508-14, 2007).Here we describe a recent improvement of in situ hybridization efficiency by applying nucleotide locked nucleic acid (LNA)-incorporated oligodeoxynucleotide probes (20 LNA/DNA nucleotide probes) essentially used for noncoding miRNA and messenger RNAs.

To investigate the expression pattern of pan-TRK protein in colorectal cancers with NTRK gene fusion and mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) and to analyze its molecular pathological characteristics. A total of 117 dMMR colorectal cancers diagnosed in the Department of Pathology of Henan Provincial People's Hospital, Zhengzhou, China from 2020 to 2023 were collected. Immunohistochemistry (IHC), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and DNA/RNA-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) were used to detect pan-TRK protein expression and fusion partner genes in tumors, and to further explore the correlation between pan-TRK staining patterns and partner genes.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) underpins approximately 90% of squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) of the anus and perianal region. These tumors usually arise in association with precursor lesions such anal intraepithelial neoplasia/ high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (AIN 3/ HSIL), whereas a small subset of HPV-negative cancers may harbor mutations in TP53. Recently, vulvar lesions termed differentiated exophytic vulvar intraepithelial lesion/vulvar acanthosis with altered differentiated (DEVIL/VAAD) have been recognized as HPV-independent, TP53 wild-type precursors for vulvar carcinoma; however, analogous anal lesions have not been described.
