RESUMO
Aims—We have previously demonstrated the abnormal localisation of expression of the CD44 gene in carcinoma cells in cryostat sections of fresh frozen tumour tissues, using radioactive in situ hybridisation (RISH). In order to facilitate further analysis of the expression of this gene in a wider range of neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions, we have developed a technique which can visualise its low copy number transcripts in archival paraffin wax embedded specimens.
