DNA fragments were labeled with dinitrophenyl (DNP) residues by the reaction with 2,4-dinitrobenzaldehyde in alkaline condition and the labeled DNA was used as a probe for non-radioactive in situ hybridization. DNP-labeled DNA probes for T cell receptor beta chain, c-myc and HTLV-1 were hybridized in situ to mRNA on cell specimens fixed with Carnoy's fixative. DNA-mRNA hybrids were detected immunohistochemically using anti-DNP antibodies. Cytoplasms of adult T cell leukemia cells were stained with varied intensity when these probes were used. More than 70% of cells were positively stained with T cell receptor probe. However, less than 30% of cells were stained with c-myc and HTLV-1 probes. The present study indicates that non-radioactive in situ hybridization can be used for the characterization and classification of leukemia.
