A simple smiFISH pipeline to quantify mRNA at the single-cell level in 3D

Techniques allowing the precise quantification of mRNA at the cellular level are essential for understanding biological processes. Here, we present a semi-automated smiFISH (single-molecule inexpensive FISH) pipeline enabling quantification of mRNA in a small number of cells (∼40) in fixed whole mou...

description Techniques allowing the precise quantification of mRNA at the cellular level are essential for understanding biological processes. Here, we present a semi-automated smiFISH (single-molecule inexpensive FISH) pipeline enabling quantification of mRNA in a small number of cells (∼40) in fixed whole mount tissue. We describe steps for sample preparation, hybridization, image acquisition, cell segmentation, and mRNA quantification. Although the protocol was developed in Drosophila, it can be optimized for use in other organisms. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Guan et al.(1)
