“…Dried tissue sections were rehydrated through a graded ethanol series before being transferred to an Invatis in situ -Pro robot for all subsequent treatments as described in ref. 22. In brief, tissue sections were treated with proteinase K (50 μg mL −1 , 10 min, RT), stopped with 0.2% glycine (5 min, RT), washed with phosphate buffered saline with 0.1% Tween20 (PBTw, 5 min, RT) re-fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (20 min, RT), incubated with hybridisation buffer (2 h, 55 °C), incubated with specific riboprobe in hybridisation buffer (500 ng μL −1 , 26 h, 55 °C) and washed with a series of saline-sodium citrate (SSC) buffers (4x, 2x, 1x, 1x with 0.0 1% Tween20, 15 min each, 55 °C).…”
