Manufactured by Roche
Sourced in Germany, Switzerland, United States, France, Japan, China, Spain, United Kingdom, Italy

The Annexin-V-FLUOS Staining Kit is a laboratory product designed for the detection and quantification of apoptosis. It provides a sensitive and reliable method for the assessment of apoptosis in cell cultures and samples. The kit contains Annexin-V-FLUOS, a fluorescent conjugate that binds to phosphatidylserine, a marker of apoptotic cells. The kit also includes propidium iodide, a dye that stains necrotic cells. This combination of reagents allows for the identification and differentiation of early apoptotic, late apoptotic, and necrotic cells.

Apoptosis and γδ T cell analysis by flow cytometry

Apoptotic lymphocytes were analyzed by flow cytometry (BriCyte E6, Mindray, Shenzhen, China) following staining with Annexin-V (FITC) and propidium iodide (PI) [21 (link)] using the Annexin-V-FLUOS staining kit (Boehringer Mannheim, GmbH, Mannheim, Germany). The cell suspensions were analyzed by flow cytometry with differentiation of 20,000 cells. The lymphocytes were distributed over three different quadrants of the dot plots, representing viable (Annexin-V−/PI−), apoptotic (Annexin-V+/PI−), and necrotic lymphocytes (Annexin-V+/PI+). The dot plots were assessed using MR Flow software (Mindray, China).
For the analysis of the γδ T cells, mouse monoclonal anti-bovine γδ TCR (T cell receptor) (GB21A, IgG2b; Serotec Ltd., Oxford, UK) antibody was used [19 (link),22 (link)]. All of the mAbs (monoclonal antibodies) were from Serotec Ltd., Oxford, UK. FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG2b (Southern Biotechnology Associated, Inc., Birmingham, AL, USA) was used as the secondary antibody [19 (link)].

Apoptotic lymphocytes were analyzed by flow cytometry (FACSCalibur apparatus, Becton Dickinson, San Jose, CA, USA) following staining with Annexin-V (FITC) and propidium iodide (PI) [33 (link)]. For that purpose, we used the Annexin-V-FLUOS staining kit (Boehringer Mannheim, GmbH, Mannheim, Germany). Five hundred µL of the incubation buffer was mixed with 10 µL of FITC-Annexin-V and 10 µL of PI solution. After 15 min of incubation at room temperature, the cell suspension was analyzed by flow cytometry with differentiation of 20,000 cells. Lymphocytes were distributed over three different quadrants of dot plots representing viable (Annexin-V-/PI-), apoptotic (Annexin-V+/PI-), and necrotic lymphocytes (Annexin-V+/PI+). The percentages of apoptotic lymphocytes were calculated from the total number of lymphocytes. The dot plots were assessed using the WinMDI software (Windows Multiple Document Interface for Flow Cytometry; Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN, USA).
For analysis of CD44, mouse anti-ovine antibody CD44 BAG40A (VMRD Inc. Pullman, Washington, USA) diluted 1:50 and FITC labelled IgG3 (SouthernBiotech, Birmingham, Alabama, USA) diluted 1:100 as the primary and the secondary antibodies were used, respectively.

Cell Viability and Apoptosis Assays

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The trypan blue exclusion assay has been previously described22 (link) and was used for quantification of cells prior to seeding for Cell Titer Glo assays. The Cell Titer Glo assay (Promega, Madison, WI) was used for proliferation studies and carried out according to manufacturer instructions. Cell viability is reported as percentage of control (untreated) cells, and error bars represent the standard error of the mean for each data point. Programmed cell death of inhibitor-treated cells was determined using the Annexin-V-Fluos Staining Kit (Boehringer Mannheim, Indianapolis, IN), as previously described22 (link). Cell cycle analysis was carried out via propidium iodide staining and FACS analysis.

Annexin-V and PI Assay for Apoptosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Programmed cell death of inhibitor-treated cells was determined using the Annexin-V-Fluos Staining Kit (Boehringer Mannheim, Indianapolis, IN), as previously described [6 (link)]. Briefly, cells were washed once with 1X PBS and pelleted by centrifugation for 5 minutes at 1500 rpm. Cells were resuspended in 100μl of 20% propidium iodide (PI) and 20% Annexin-V-fluorescein labeling reagent, either agent alone (as controls), or were left unstained by diluting only in 1X binding buffer (as a control). All samples were incubated for 10-15 minutes at room temperature, and then stained cells were diluted in 0.8 mL of 1X binding buffer. Cells were then analyzed by flow cytometry.
Cell cycle analysis was performed as previously described [6 (link)]. Briefly, around 500,000 cells were centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 5 min and washed in 1X PBS, and the pellet was resuspended in 500 μl of propidium iodide solution (50 μg/ml propidium iodide, 0.1% NP-40, 0.1% sodium citrate). The mixture was stored in the dark at 4°C for a minimum of 15 min, and then analyzed by flow cytometry.

HUVEC Viability and Apoptosis Assay

HUVEC viability was assayed by adding Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8, CK04, Dojindo, Rockville, MD) reagent and incubation for 4 h. HUVECs stimulated with serum-free medium (SFM) and 10% FBS were used as the controls. To evaluate EC apoptosis, HUVECs were seeded at 4 × 104 cells and stimulated with 20% dHL-60 supernatant, which had been stimulated with uremic or normal serum for 20 h. Next, cells were washed with PBS and trypsinized. Detached cells were centrifuged, washed in PBS, stained using an Annexin-V-FLUOS Staining Kit (11 858 777 001, Roche), and 1 × 104 cells were subjected to flow cytometry (CytoFLEX, Beckman Coulter).

Apoptosis Quantification via Annexin V-FITC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Phosphatidyl serine (PS), a phospholipid, is normally localized on the inner surface of the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane. Externalization of PS on the other side of plasmatic membrane can be detected by the Annexin V-FITC conjugate. Annexin V staining therefore acts as a marker of programmed cell death. For apoptosis detection, floating and adherent HeLa cells (1 × 106) were harvested 24, 48 and 72 h after GA treatment (c = 150 μM). NAC/GA experimental groups were pre-treated with N-Acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC c = 2 mM) for 1 h before GA was added. Complete cell population was washed in PBS and stained using Annexin-V-FLUOS Staining Kit (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) for 15 min at room temperature in the dark followed by incubation with propidium iodide (PI) and analyses by flow cytometer (BD FACSCalibur).

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.
