Multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (mFISH) offers precise analysis of complex chromosomal rearrangements. This review covers available mFISH methods, their clinical impact, and applications in identifying disease-related genes.

Area of Science:

  • Cytogenetics
  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics

Background:

  • Multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (mFISH) is essential for characterizing complex chromosomal rearrangements.
  • Routine mFISH applications on human chromosomes began in 1996 with multiplex-FISH (M-FISH) and spectral karyotyping (SKY).
  • mFISH assays are crucial for identifying marker chromosomes in conventional banding analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review available mFISH methods.
  • To discuss the advantages and limitations of various mFISH techniques.
  • To highlight the clinical impact and applications of mFISH in genetic research.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on mFISH techniques.
  • Analysis of different mFISH approaches for chromosomal differentiation.
