Annexin 5 apc

Manufactured by Immunotools
Sourced in Germany

Annexin V-APC is a fluorescent conjugate used to detect and quantify apoptotic cells. Annexin V is a calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding protein that has a high affinity for phosphatidylserine, which is externalized during the early stages of apoptosis. The APC (allophycocyanin) fluorescent dye is conjugated to Annexin V, allowing for the detection and analysis of apoptotic cells by flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.

Culture supernatants were collected, and after centrifuging at 300 g for 5 min and 2000 g for 20 min, EVs were bound to antibody-coated beads that had been blocked with 0.1% BSA (Sigma) in PBS for 30 min. According to our previous experiments, 20 µl or 6 µl of anti-CD63-coated beads (Thermo Fisher, 10606D) or anti-CD81-coated beads (Thermo Fisher, 10616D) were added to 200 µl supernatant, respectively. After overnight rotation at 4 °C, beads were magnetically separated, washed with Annexin binding buffer (BD Biosciences) three times and beads were labelled for 20 min. 10,000 beads were then measured on a FACSCalibur (BD) instrument. FITC-anti-CD81 (A15753, Molecular Probes), PE-anti-CD63 (SAB47000218, Sigma), and FITC Annexin V (SAB4700218, Sony) or APC Annexin V (Immunotools, 31490016) were used for detection (2 µl/sample). In all experiments, cells were counted with Burker chamber and results were normalized to cell number.

Primary monocytes (2 × 105 cells in a 24-well plate) and CFSE-labeled M14K cells (10 × 103 cells) were cocultured for 24 h in the presence of VPA (2 mM). Floating and adherent cells were collected, washed with PBS, and resuspended in 100 µL of annexin binding buffer (10 mM Hepes, 140 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM CaCl2, pH 7.4, BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA). Cells were then labeled with annexin V-APC (5 µL, Immunotools, Friesoythe, Germany) during 15 min at room temperature. After adding 150 µL of annexin binding buffer, labeled cells were recorded by flow cytometry (BD FACSCanto, BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA).

Dye retention was analyzed by detecting CFSE fluorescence intensity in the live cell fraction. Viability was determined using Annexin V-APC staining. KG1a cells previously labeled with CFSE were collected from single cultures by pipetting. From cocultures, in addition to pipetting off the suspension cells, 200 μL of 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) was also added to loosen the alginate. The cells were pelleted and resuspended in Annexin V buffer (10 mM HEPES/NaOH, pH 7.5, 140 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM CaCl2) containing 1.5 μL Annexin V-APC (ImmunoTools). The cells were incubated on ice in the dark for 15 min, followed by analysis by flow cytometry. The intensity of the CFSE signal was measured in the live cell fraction as a determinant of cell proliferation rate. For immunofluorescence labeling, primary AML blasts were harvested and resuspended in 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in PBS and blocked for 10 min after which the cells were collected and resuspended in 100 μL 1% BSA/PBS containing 2 μL of antibodies SLAMF1/CD150-PE (R&D Systems) or GRPC5C Alexa Fluor 405 (R&D Systems) and incubated on ice in the dark for 30 min. After washing of unbound antibodies with 400 μL of 1% BSA/PBS, the cells were resuspended in 200 μL of 1% BSA/PBS for measurement.

Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell cycle analysis was performed with Hoechst 33342, and flow cytometric measurements were performed using a Gallios flow cytometry instrument (Beckman Coulter, Inc.). Twenty-four hours after transfection, Jurkat T cells were collected, washed in 5 ml PBS and spun for 5 min at 200×g. Next, cells were resuspended in 0.5 ml PBS and incubated for 30 min with a 5 µg/ml final concentration of Hoechst 33342, which stains DNA in living cells. Samples were kept for 30 min at RT.
To analyze apoptosis, cells were labeled with fluorochromes Annexin V and 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). Thus, viable (Annexin V/DAPI), early apoptotic (Annexin V+/DAPI), late apoptotic (Annexin V+/DAPI+) and necrotic (Annexin V-/DAPI+) cells can be distinguished. Briefly, 24 h after transfection, cells were centrifuged (200×g, 5 min), washed with 5 ml of PBS and collected. Cells (1 × 106) were resuspended in 100 µl BB (Binding Buffer; 10 mM HEPES, 140 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM CaCl2, pH 7.4) and incubated with 5 µl of Annexin V APC (Immunotools) for 15 min at RT in darkness. Next, 400 µl of BB and 3 µl of DAPI (1 mg/ml) were added to each sample. The acquisition of events was performed in a Gallios flow cytometry instrument (Beckman Coulter, Inc.) using specific software.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
