Fitc annexin 5 apoptosis kit

Manufactured by MultiSciences Biotech
Sourced in China

The FITC Annexin V Apoptosis Kit is a laboratory reagent used to detect apoptosis, a type of programmed cell death. The kit contains FITC-labeled Annexin V, a protein that binds to phosphatidylserine, a molecule that is exposed on the surface of cells undergoing apoptosis. The kit also includes propidium iodide, a fluorescent dye that can identify cells with compromised cell membranes, indicating late-stage apoptosis or necrosis.

MC3T3-E1 cells were planted in 24-well plates at a density of 2×105/mL. After the cells grew to approximately 80% confluence, the medium was replaced with fresh medium, and then these cells were dealt with Z-IETD-FMK (40 µM), Nec-1 (50 µM), Z-IETD-FMK (40 µM) plus Nec-1 (50 µM) for 6 h, respectively. Next, CM was added to the plates, in which the concentration of CM reached to 40%, to culture with the cells for 24 h. Subsequently, five groups cells were rinsed with PBS and harvested by trypsinization, and then centrifuged at 3,000 rpm for 5 minutes. After that cells were suspended and stained with Annexin V and PI via FITC Annexin V Apoptosis Kit (MultiSciences Biotech Co., Ltd., China) according to instructions. The proportion of cell survival, apoptosis and necrosis was analyzed via flow cytometry (FACS, BD Biosciences). Moreover, data were the average result of three independent experiments and analysed by FlowJo VX software.

Nec-1 Protects MC3T3-E1 Cells from TNF-α Induced Necroptosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The 1:1 proportion bone cement sample was chosen to be put into a centrifuge tube with 5 ml PBS in 37°C thermostatic box for releasing Nec-1 for 48 h. After that, the supernatant was collected to co-cultured with MC3T3-E1 cells, which is given by China Infrastructure of cell line resource. The in vitro experiment was divided into three groups, including control group, TNF-α group, and TNF-α plus sample releasing supernatant. MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured in 24-well plates at a density of 2 × 105/ml with basal culture media (alpha Modified Eagle Medium, 15% fetal bovine serum, 100 IU penicillin-100μg/ml streptomycin, and 2.5μg/ml Fungizone) for 48 h. Then the medium was changed by fresh medium. After the cells grew to 80% confluence, the collected Nec-1 supernatant was added to co-culture with the cells for 1 h. Subsequently, the necroptosis was introduced by adding 10 μg/ml TNF-α for 48 h culturing. After that, three group cells were treated by trypsinization and then harvested by centrifuging at 3000 rpm for 5 min. Next, according to the manufacturer’s instructions, the cells were suspended and stained with Annexin V and PI by using a FITC Annexin V Apoptosis Kit (MultiSciences Biotech Co., Ltd, China). The experiment was repeated three times independently and the data were analyzed by FlowJo VX software.

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.
