Rabbit anti active caspase 3

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Rabbit anti-active caspase 3 is a laboratory reagent used to detect the presence of activated caspase 3 protein. Caspase 3 is an enzyme involved in the execution phase of apoptosis, or programmed cell death. This antibody specifically recognizes the cleaved, active form of caspase 3 and can be used in various immunoassay techniques to identify and quantify apoptotic cells.

Human NSCs and differentiated neuronal cells were seeded on chamber slides. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 min and then permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5 min at room temperature. TBS with 2% FBS was used for blocking. The cells were incubated with the following primary antibodies at 4 °C overnight: rabbit anti-SOX2 (1:200, Cell Signaling, CA, USA), mouse anti-nestin (1:200, Millipore, MA, USA), rabbit anti-MAP2 (1:200, Millipore, MA, USA), mouse anti-Tuj1 (anti-neuron-specific class III β-tubulin, 1:200, Millipore, MA, USA), mouse anti-GAD67 (1:200, Millipore, MA, USA), rabbit anti-active caspase 3 (1:200, Millipore, MA, USA), rabbit anti-LC3A/B (1:200, Cell Signaling, CA, USA), mouse anti-EV-A71 3D (1:500, Genetex, CA, USA) or rabbit anti-EV-A71 3A (1:500). The cells were then washed with TBS and incubated with the following secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature: DyLight 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody or DyLight 594-conjugated donkey anti-mouse secondary antibody (1:1,000, Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, Pennsylvania, USA). The cells were then washed with TBS, and cell nuclei were counterstained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA). Images were collected with an Olympus BX51 fluorescence microscope (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan) and an LSM 510 microscope (Zeiss, Jena, Germany).

For immunofluorescence analyses, the cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 45 min and permeabilized with 1% Triton X-100 (EMD Millipore) for 10 min. Thereafter, the specimens were blocked and incubated first for 12 h with a primary antibody (rabbit anti–β1-tubulin [Patel-Hett et al., 2008 (link)], rat anti-CD41 [MWReg30; BioLegend], rabbit anti-von Willebrand factor [Emfret], or rabbit anti-active caspase-3 [Millipore]. They were then incubated for 1 h with an RPE-conjugated rat anti-CD41 (MWReg30), Alexa Fluor–conjugated mouse anti–α-tubulin (Invitrogen) and/or goat secondary antibody (Invitrogen). Finally, the cells were counterstained for 1 h with Hoechst 33342, and images were captured using a confocal microscope (Nikon A1R). The cells were excited using three laser lines (405 nm, 488 nm, and 561 nm), and the emission was collected using appropriate narrow band-pass filters and GaAs detectors.

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.
