Annexin 5 fitc apoptosis detection kit

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in United States, United Kingdom, China, Australia

The Annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Detection Kit is a laboratory tool used to detect and quantify apoptosis, a type of programmed cell death. It contains Annexin V conjugated to the fluorescent dye FITC, which binds to phosphatidylserine, a molecule exposed on the surface of apoptotic cells. The kit also includes propidium iodide, a dye that stains the nuclei of late apoptotic or necrotic cells.

Before cell expansion, PL3 cells were labeled with CellVue® Claret (Sigma–Aldrich) at 2 × 10−6 M for 5 min according to the manufacturer's protocol. After 8 days, expanded cells were collected and measured using a BD FACS Calibur™ flow cytometer (dual laser) (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA). Twenty thousand events of each sample were collected using CellQuest Pro software (BD Biosciences) and cell proliferation index was analyzed by ModFit LT™ version 3.1 (Verity Software House, Topsham, ME).
Apoptosis of expanded cells was detected using Annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Detection Kit (BioVision Inc., Milpitas, CA). Briefly, 2 × 105 detached cells from each group (n = 3) were labeled with FITC conjugated annexin V and propidium iodide for 15 min. Samples were measured using FACS Calibur (BD Biosciences) and analyzed using the FCS Express software package (De Novo Software, Los Angeles, CA).
Expanded cells were incubated with 1 mM hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at 37 °C for 1 h. To measure intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), cells were incubated with 1 μM 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (H2DCFDA) (Life Technologies) for 15 min. The plates were read on a FlUOstar OPTIMA (BMG Labtech Inc., Cary, NC) with an excitation wavelength of 485 nm and emission of 530 nm. Samples were assayed in triplicate.

Apoptosis was measured using an annexin V‐FITC Apoptosis Detection Kit (BioVision). To examine the expression of human EGFR on cancer cells, cells were stained with either FITC‐conjugated anti‐EGFR Ab (NeoMarkers) or isotype‐matched control Ab (Beckman Coulter). To examine the expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) on cancer cells, cells were stained with either FITC‐conjugated anti‐HER2 Ab (BD Bioscience) or isotype‐matched FITC‐conjugated mouse IgG (Beckman Coulter). To examine the expression of TRAIL on natural killer (NK) cells, cells were stained with anti‐CD56‐allophycocyanin (APC) Ab (EXBIO) and anti‐TRAIL‐phycoerythrin (PE) Abs. To examine the expression of TRAIL on in vitro expanded T cells, these cells were stained with PE‐conjugated anti‐TRAIL Ab. To determine the subset of T cells, expanded T cells were stained with anti‐CD4‐PE and anti‐CD8‐APC Abs. All analyses were undertaken by flow cytometry (FACSCalibur; Becton Dickinson).

For detection of apoptosis, Annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Detection kit (Biovision, Milpitas, CA, USA) was used according to the manufacturer's instructions as we have previously described [42 (link)]. Samples were analyzed using LSR II flow cytometer (BD Bioscience). The sum values of early apoptotic cells (Annexin V+/PI-) and late apoptotic cells (Annexin V+/PI+) represented the total apoptosis.

Quantifying Apoptosis in NB4 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Apoptosis in NB4 cells was quantified by the presence of phosphatidylserine on the outer side of the membrane using the Annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Detection Kit (BioVision). After treatments with esculetin, 2.5 × 105 cells were sedimented at 1200 rpm for 5 minutes and incubated with 500 μl 1x annexin Binding Buffer and 1 μl annexin-FITC for 5 min at room temperature in the dark. Then, 10 μl of PI was added and apoptotic cells were quantified by fluorescence by flow cytometry as indicated before. The results were analyzed using the WinMDI 2.8 software.
Lower left quadrant (FITC/PI) corresponds to living cells, lower right quadrant (FITC+/PI) corresponds to early apoptotic cells, upper right quadrant (FITC+/PI+) corresponds to late apoptotic cells, and upper left quadrant (FITC/PI+) corresponds to necrotic cells. Quadrants were defined based on the major population of live control cells (low PI; low annexin), and their position kept constant for all other samples.

The cell apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry analysis. Briefly, after treatment with miR-340 mimics, inhibitor or the NC for 48h, the cells were collected and subjected to an annexin V/PI stain using an annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Detection Kit (BioVision, Palo Alto, CA). Then the fluorescence was measured by flow cytometry using a FACS flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson, San Jose, CA). Cell invasion abilities were examined using a 24-well matrigel-coated transwell inserts (BD Biosciences, Bedford, MA, USA). Cells with treatment were transferred on the top of matrigel-coated invasion chambers with serum-free DMEM and were fixed in methanol and stained with 0.1% crystal violet later. The average numbers of cells per field were determined by counting the cells in four random fields per well. All tests were performed in triplicate.

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.
