Annexin 5 fluorescein isothiocyanate and propidium iodide staining

Manufactured by BD

Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate and propidium iodide (PI) staining is a laboratory technique used to detect and quantify apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in cell populations. Annexin V is a calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding protein that has a high affinity for phosphatidylserine, which is exposed on the outer membrane of apoptotic cells. Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) is a fluorescent dye that is conjugated to Annexin V, allowing for the detection of apoptotic cells by flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy. Propidium iodide (PI) is a DNA-binding dye that is used to detect necrotic or late-stage apoptotic cells, as it can only enter cells with compromised membranes.

Apoptosis Quantification by Flow Cytometry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The percentages of viable as well as apoptotic cells were quantified by flow cytometry using Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate and propidium iodide (PI) staining (BD Biosciences, San Diego, CA). Cells were stained with Annexin-V/FITC and PI in a binding buffer along with the appropriate control. Total number of Annexin V and PI positive cells were counted using a FACScan flow cytometer (BD Biosciences). The data was analyzed using software (FlowJo version 10; FloJo Data Analysis Software, Ashland, OR).

Apoptosis Evaluation in Glioma Stem Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After CoCl2 application or 14-3-3β siRNA transfection, GSC cell apoptosis rate was evaluated by annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate and propidium iodide staining (BD Biosciences) for 15 min at RT (25°C) in the dark and flow cytometry analysis (BD, FACSuite Research Assay Software). Bax/Bcl-2 assessment is a way of assessing cell apoptosis [46 (link), 47 (link)]. Thus, Bax/Bcl-2 protein expression and mRNA levels were also detected by western blotting or qPCR following 14-3-3β siRNA transfection combined with CoCl2 treatment (anti-Bax and anti-Bcl-2, 1 : 1,000; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc.). In addition, caspase-3 activity was measured to determine GSC cell apoptosis after above treatments by using a kit (Promega, Inc.) according to the manufacturer's instructions [48 (link)].

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.
