Procyanidins Modulate Cell Cycle in A549 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Flow cytometry analysis was employed to detect the effect of PCs on the cell cycle of A549 cells. The cells were treated with DMSO and procyanidins (25, 50, 100 µM) for 24 hours. The trypsinized cells were washed with cold PBS, and the heart was centrifuged at 2,000 rpm for 5 minutes. The cells were slowly recovered with 50 µL of PBS, and then 950 µL of 75% ethanol was added to fix the cells at 4 °C overnight. The fixed cells were washed with cold PBS, centrifuged at 2,000 rpm for 5 minutes, and incubated with 500 µL propidium iodide (PI)/RNase staining buffer (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) for 15 minutes in the dark at room temperature. The above cells were detected by flow cytometry (BD-FACSAria II, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA). The cell cycle was analyzed with Modfit-LT (VeritySoftwareHouse, USA), and the experiment was repeated three times.

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.
