The neuropeptide tyrosine precursor (pre-pro-NPY) messenger RNA (mRNA) has been localised in formaldchyde-fixed human phaeochromocytoma tissue using a sensitive in situ hybridisation procedure and a novel single-stranded cDNA probe. The reaction product was revealed by avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex and streptavidin-gold complex with silver enhancement. This technique may be applied for the determination of biosynthetic activity of endocrine and neuronal cell bodies. This is largely due to its rapidity by comparison with conventional autoradiographic procedures, to the permanence of the reaction product and to the sensitivity of the visualisation steps.
