Free-floating tissue sections were collected into 20 ml glass scintillation vials containing ice-cold 2 X SSC (0.3M NaCl, 0.03M sodium citrate) for in situ hybridization. The SSC in each vial was pipetted off, and sections were then suspended in 1 ml of warm prehybridization buffer (50% formamide, 10% dextran sulfate, 2 X SSC, 1X Denhardt’s solution, 50mM dithiothreitol, 0.5 mg/mL denatured salmon sperm DNA) and placed in a 48°C water bath. Two h later, 35S-dCTP-labeled cDNA probes (10 x 10^6 CPM/vial) were added to the vials and hybridized overnight at 48°C. After overnight hybridization, the sections were washed at 15-min intervals in decreasing concentrations of SSC (2X, 2X, 1X, 0.5X, 0.25X, 0.125X, 0.125X) at 48°C. After washes, the tissue sections were stored in 0.1M phosphate buffer at 4°C and then mounted on gelatin-subbed slides, air-dried, and apposed to Kodak Biomax autoradiographic film (Eastman Kodak Co., NY,

Prepare probes by [[Oligo Tail Labeling]].
Coronal 40 micron sections were cut on a sliding freezing microtome through the rostral caudal extent of the hypothalamus. Alternate sections were placed into ice-cold 2x SSC (SSC = 0.15M NaCl/0.015M Na Citrate). Free floating tissue sections were prehybridized in glass vials in 1ml of 60% formamide, 0.02 M Tris pH7.4, 1mM EDTA, 10% dextran sulfate, 0.8% Ficoll, 0.8% PVP, 0.8% BSA, 2x SSC, 0.1M dithiothreitol, and 1.6 mg/mL herring sperm DNA for 2h at 37°C. After 2h prehybridization, radiolabeled probe was added (~1.0 x 107 cpm/vial) and incubated for 16-20h at 37°C. Hybridization was performed with either tail labeled prepro NPY (ppNPY) antisense oligonucleotide (bases 59-88), agouti-related protein (AGRP) antisense oligonucleotide (bases 1-45) or proopiomelanocortin (POMC) antisense oligonucleotide (bases 482-517). The oligonucleotides were tail-labeled to approximately equal specific activities (~10^7 cpm/100ng) with 35S-dATP by terminal transferase reaction (Roche), Sections were then sequentially rinsed in 2x SSC, 1x SSC and 0.5x SSC for 10 minutes at 37°C. The tissue sections were mounted from 0.05M sodium phosphate onto gelatin- coated slides, air dried, and exposed to autoradiographic film (β-max, Amersham) for 2-3 days. Tissue sections from different groups were hybridized in parallel and exposed to film together to ensure that in situ hybridization was carried out on representative members of each experimental group at the same time under identical conditions, allowing direct comparison of mRNA expression.

Note that the ceiling or maximal level of expression may vary across regions, even for the same gene product. For example, the MR has a lower and sparser expression of 5HTT and Pet-1 mRNA than the DR under baseline conditions. Thus the dynamic range of MR cells may be lower than cells in the DR, and an increase in expression within the MR may be detected as an increase in area rather than in density. The physiological bases for the heterogenity in baseline and stimulated levels of gene expression within the raphe nuclei is a profound topic, to which this paper makes a small contribution with respect to estrogen effects.
