The localization of mRNA encoding calcitonin was studied by in situ hybridization using 35S-labeled RNA probes and biotin-labeled DNA probes. Radiolabeled probes were detected by autoradiography and biotin-labeled probes by streptavidin-biotin-peroxidase. To intensify the colorimetric signal, the indirect avidin-biotin complex (ABC) method was performed. However, the results were often variable. To improve the sensitivity, the peroxidase reaction signal was enhanced with a gold-silver deposit intensification reaction. To shorten the incubation times and to enhance the colorimetric reaction, several reaction steps were performed in a microwave oven. The localization of calcitonin mRNA in thyroid tissue, as detected with in situ hybridization, was confirmed by immunohistochemical localization of the calcitonin polypeptide. The results of in situ hybridization using biotinylated probes were compared to in situ hybridization using radioactive probes. Our data show that the results of in situ hybridization applied on frozen and paraffin-embedded sections using biotinylated DNA probes, detected with an indirect streptavidin-biotin-peroxidase reaction and intensified by silver-gold enhancement, were comparable to those obtained with radioactive probes. The localization of calcitonin encoding mRNA was in agreement with the localization of the calcitonin polypeptide.
