Annexin 5 fluorescein isothiocyanate apoptosis detection kit

Manufactured by BD
Sourced in United States

The Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate apoptosis detection kit is a laboratory product that enables the detection and quantification of apoptosis, a type of programmed cell death, in cell samples. The kit utilizes Annexin V, a protein that binds to phosphatidylserine, a molecule that is exposed on the surface of cells undergoing apoptosis. Annexin V is conjugated to the fluorescent dye fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), allowing for the visualization and analysis of apoptotic cells using flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.

Cytotoxicity of PTT was determined by quantification of apoptotic or necrotic cancer cells. MDA-MB-231 cells were seeded at a density of 4 × 105 cells/well in 24-well plates for 24 h at 37 °C and they were then treated with or without CS-PPy NCs (210 μg/mL) for 4 h. After washing, the cells were treated with or without the 808-nm laser at 2 W/cm2 for 5 min. Subsequently, cells were cultured for additional 2 h and they were then harvested. Fluorescein isothiocyanate Annexin V Apoptosis Detection Kit (BD Biosciences, USA) was used to detect and quantify apoptosis using a flow cytometer (BD FACSVerse, NJ, USA). Annexin V-positive and PI-negative cells were recorded as apoptotic. Double-stained cells were considered to be apoptotic or necrotic.

The ratio of apoptotic cells was determined using a fluorescein isothiocyanate-Annexin V Apoptosis Detection kit (BD Biosciences). The analysis was performed as previously described (9 (link)). Briefly, the cells were stained with FITC-Annexin V and propidium iodide, according to the manufacturer's instructions. Podocyte apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry (FACSCalibur; BD Biosciences) and analyzed using Accuri C6 software (version 1.0.264.21; BD Biosciences). The presence of apoptotic cells in the tissue sections was determined using a TUNEL Apoptosis kit (cat. no. BA27A; Nanjing Biobox Biotech Co., Ltd.), according to the manufacturer's instructions. After deparaffinization, sections of kidney tissue were decomposed with protease K and successively incubated in terminal transferase buffer with streptavidin-FITC-conjugated antibodies and a POD-conjugated anti-FITC solution, followed by staining with a diaminobenzidine solution (all in the TUNEL kit). Apoptotic cells were observed under a light microscope in five fields of view (magnification, ×400; DM2500; Leica Microsystems GmbH).

Transfected A375 and A2508 cells were inoculated into 6-well plates and cultured for 48 hours. For cell cycle analysis, cells were collected, washed with PBS, fixed in 75% ethanol, incubated with 50 µg/mL propidium iodide containing 40 µg/mL RNase for 30 minutes, followed by a FACSCalibur flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) to measure the distribution of cells in G0/G1, S, and G2/M phases. For apoptosis detection, cells were harvested, washed with PBS, stained with a fluorescein isothiocyanate Annexin V Apoptosis Detection Kit (BD Biosciences), and then subjected to a flow cytometer (BD Biosciences) for the examination of apoptotic rate.

The BC cells were treated with cisplatin and hsa-miR-30a-3p mimic for 24 h, and the apoptotic cells were detected using the fluorescein isothiocyanate Annexin V apoptosis detection kit (BD Biosciences, NJ, USA), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The populations with Annexin V/PI, Annexin V+/PI, Annexin V+/PI+, and Annexin V/PI+ cells showed live, early apoptotic, late apoptotic, and necrotic cells that were estimated using the Accuri C5 flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, NJ, USA), and the resulting data were analyzed using CellQuest Pro software (BD Biosciences, NJ, USA).

MC38 cells were cocultured with MPE macrophages using a cell culture insert with 0.4 μm pores (Corning, NY, USA). MPE macrophages isolated from WT and IL-10−/− mice were seeded within the upper chamber, while MC38 cells (2 × 105 cells/mL) were plated on the lower chamber. Subsequently, the upper chamber was placed onto the plates. After coculture for 24 hr, MC38 cells were collected, and the apoptotic cells were analyzed using a fluorescein isothiocyanate Annexin V Apoptosis Detection Kit (BD Biosciences).
