Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis is a molecular technique allowing the detection of recurrent translocations in cancer. Several hybridization protocols were assayed in order to evaluate their performances for interphase FISH analysis of histological sections and imprints using split probes. Adult and foetal lymphoid tissues were selected. Touch imprints of fresh (EF) or frozen (EC) tissues, sections (CF) and isolated nuclei (NI) of formol-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues were performed. The cut-off values of the IGH, IGlambda, BCL-2, BCL-6, CCND1 and MYC DNA FISH split signal probes were calculated for adult reactive lymph nodes on the different histological preparations (EC, CF, CC, NI) and on several tissues for the IGH and BCL-6 probes. In reactive lymph nodes, the cut-off values of the probes were between 3 and 13% and found independent of the preparation type. Conversely, slight but significant variations of the cut-off level were observed when different foetal control tissues were assayed with the same probe set. Finally, this study provided optimized-protocols for FISH analysis of either fresh/frozen imprints or formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections using split signal DNA probes.
