Chromosome 12 copy number/nucleus in Tissue by FISH
Active
Term Description
Aneusomy (varying number) of chromosome 12 is evaluated by using a DNA probe that marks the centromeric region of chromosome 12. Such a probe is also called CEP12. The ratio of the number of signals of the MDM2 gene, also on chromosome 12, to the chromosome 12 signal [LOINC: 93809-2] can indicate whether or not there is amplification of the MDM2 gene.

Part Description
LP62864-1 FISH
FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) is a cytogenetic technique used to detect and localize the presence or absence of specific DNA sequences on chromosomes. FISH uses fluorescent probes that bind to only those parts of the chromosome with which they show a high degree of sequence similarity. Fluorescence microscopy can be used to find out where the fluorescent probe bound to the chromosomes. FISH is often used for finding specific features in DNA for use in genetic counseling, medicine, and species identification. FISH can also be used to detect and localize specific mRNAs within tissue samples. In this context, it can help define the spatial-temporal patterns of gene expression within cells and tissues.
