Multi-plex in situ mutation detection of MET using padlock probe rolling circle amplification on E98-FM FFPE xenograft tissue. (a) Serial H&E stainings. (b) In situ duo-probe detection of METexon7–8wt and METΔ7-8 transcripts using padlock probes MET7,8 and MET6–9, respectively. (c) In situ duo-probe detection of METexon14wt and METΔ14 transcripts using padlock probes MET14 and MET13–15, respectively. (d) In situ duo-probe detection of METexon14wt and METΔ7-8 transcripts using padlock probes MET14 and MET6–9, respectively. Wild-type transcripts are displayed as green RCPs, mutant transcripts are displayed as magenta RCPs. Cell nuclei are shown in grey. Note that in all assays the tumour border emphasizes the specificity of the padlock probes, showing no fluorescent detection spots in normal brain tissue (right figures, original magnification 20x). Compare the left and middle panels for each assay, visualizing differences in transcript expression in different tumour areas. Inserts give a zoomed view of the underlying image. Original magnification 40x.
