in 10% FBS RPMI 1640 medium containing solution of
The cells were then centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 5 min at 4 °C,
then the supernatant was discarded, and the pellet was resuspended
in 200 μL of PBS. The cells were then centrifuged at 3000 rpm
for 5 min at 4 °C, then the supernatant was discarded, and the
pellet was resuspended in 195 μL of 1 × binding buffer.
A 195 μL aliquot of the sample solution was incubated with 5
μL of FITC-conjugated annexin V (Invitrogen) for 15 min at room
temperature in the dark. Then the cells were then washed by 1 ×
binding buffer and added 190 μL of 1 × binding buffer 10
μL of PI (20 μg/mL, Invitrogen). 200 μL of the sample
solution transferred to culture tube were analyzed by flow cytometry
(Becton Dickinson) using Cell Quest Research Software (Becton Dickinson).
