• Confocal Detection of NBT/BCIP In Situ Hybridization
  

  Confocal laser scanning reflection microscopy (CLSM) in combination with whole-mount in situ hybridization (WMISH) is a novel method to visualize gene expression patterns in three dimensions in whole embryos. The method uses conventional NBT/BCIP precipitation by alkaline phosphatase in WMISH samples and confocal detection by reflection microscopy. WMISH protocols can also be combined with fluorescent counterstainings such as DAPI, antibodies, GFP lines, and fluorescent in situ probes. Such double and triple labeling combined with confocal microscopy allows expression profiling at a cellular resolution in cell types or embryological structures of interest. Whole-mount reflection CLSM will thus greatly facilitate large-scale, cellular resolution expression profiling in vertebrate and invertebrate model organisms. more

• Efficient Transfection of Primary Human Skeletal Myoblasts Using FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent
  

  Transfection of cells is one of the main techniques used to influence gene expression. Most primary cells and human skeletal myoblasts (SkMC) in particular are very difficult to transfect, whereas for cell lines such as C2C12, many suitable transfection reagents and protocols are available. Few publications report successful transfection of human primary myoblasts using non-viral systems [1,2,3]. These methods include cationic lipids such as phosphono­lipids, electroporation, and a combination of liposome and adenoviral associated proteins. But transfection efficiency is low and often is a compromise between toxicity of the reagents and transfection efficiency. more

• Sniffing Out the Secrets of Social Behavior
  

  In his novel "Perfume - the Story of a Murderer", Patrick Süskind managed to put the power of odors into words better than anyone before him. It may be a fascinating idea, but no one will ever be able to create the perfect fragrance that makes a person irresistibly attractive. In the animal world, on the other hand, olfactory signals are an essential element of social communication. Yet we are only just beginning to understand the complexities and functional differences of the sense of smell in mammals. Professor Marc Spehr is leading the Department of Chemosensation at RWTH Aachen University since 2009, where he is conducting research on the neuronal mechanisms of olfactory perception and signal processing using the mouse model. In his experiments, he and his team are trying to find out how substances for social interaction are perceived and how this perception generates a specific type of behavior more
