Tunel apoptosis assay kit

Manufactured by Wuhan Servicebio Technology
Sourced in China

The TUNEL Apoptosis Assay Kit is a laboratory product designed to detect and quantify apoptosis, a form of programmed cell death. The kit utilizes the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) method to label and identify DNA fragmentation, which is a hallmark of apoptosis. The core function of the kit is to provide a reliable and standardized approach for the analysis of apoptosis in various biological samples.

Lung CD68 were stained by standard immunohistochemistry protocols to quantify the degree of macrophage infiltration. Briefly, CD68 expression levels were detected in paraffin embedded lung sections using anti-CD68 rat antibody (1:1000 dilution, Abcam, USA) (27 (link)). Cells positively stained for CD68 were automatically counted with image J software (NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA), which was calculated as the mean of 5 random fields from scanned images (DSAssistantLite software, Motic, China; ×400 magnification, image size: 715 × 408 μm). And the CD68 positive rate are calculated by CD68 positive cells to total cells in each field.
The proliferative and apoptotic abilities of PASMCs were, respectively, determined by immunohistochemical staining of lung section with Ki67 antibody (cat. no. GB111141, Servicebio, China) and TUNEL apoptosis assay kit (cat. no. G1507, Servicebio, China). Immunohistochemical staining was performed using the two-step immunohistochemical technique with diaminobenzidine (DAB, Sigma-Aldrich, USA) following the manufacturer's instructions. The positive stained cells were counted by image J software (NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA), and presented as the mean of 5 randomly selected pulmonary arteriole under ×400 magnification.

The apoptotic neurons in the brain sections were detected using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick end labelling (TUNEL) assay. After deparaffinization and rehydration, the brain sections were permeabilized with proteinase K solution, then exposed to the mixture of biotinylated nucleotide dUTP and recombinant terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) following the instruction manual of TUNEL Apoptosis Assay Kit (Servicebio, Wuhan, China). Staining with 4,6-diamino-2-phenyl indole (DAPI) (Sigma, St. Louis, USA) was performed to visualize nuclei. Images were obtained under a fluorescent microscope (Olympus, Center Valley, USA).

Apoptosis Mapping in Zebrafish Embryo Brains

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Zebrafish embryos (48 hpf) were collected, and the egg membranes were manually removed and then fixed with 4% PFA at −4 °C. Then, the heads of the embryos were cut off and soaked in the agar-sucrose mixed gel. Samples were fixed in the standard position. Agarose gel-containing samples were cut into cubes with a side length of 0.3 cm post-solidification. The gel cubes were dehydrated with 30% sucrose for 2 days. OCT embedded heads were frozen at −25 °C for 30 min prior to sectioning at 5 μm per slice and stored at −80 °C until use. Intracerebral apoptotic cells were examined by TUNEL assay. Sample slides were fixed with 4% PFA for 30 min, and permeablized by proteinase K and 0.1% Triton X-100. Following the protocols of TUNEL Apoptosis Assay Kit (Servicebio), samples were further balanced and stained with a reaction mixture and DAPI. Then they were rinsed with PBST, and sealed with quench-resistant sealing fluid. Lastly, Images were captured using a confocal microscope and analyzed using Image J 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.
