Annexin 5 apoptosis detection kit with propidium iodide

Manufactured by BioLegend
Sourced in United States

The Annexin V Apoptosis Detection Kit with propidium iodide (PI) is a laboratory tool used for the detection and analysis of apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cell samples. The kit utilizes Annexin V, a protein that binds to phosphatidylserine, a lipid that is exposed on the surface of apoptotic cells. The kit also includes propidium iodide, a fluorescent dye that stains the DNA of cells with compromised cell membranes, typically associated with late-stage apoptosis or necrosis. The kit allows for the identification and quantification of cells undergoing various stages of apoptosis through flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy analysis.

5 protocols using annexin 5 apoptosis detection kit with propidium iodide

1

Annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The apoptosis assay was performed using the fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) Annexin V apoptosis detection kit with propidium iodide (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA) according to manufacturer’s protocol. Cells were collected and re-suspended in 1× binding buffer. Double staining was done by incubating the cell suspension with Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide solution for 15 min at RT in the dark. Annexin V (FL1) and propidium iodide (FL3) fluorescence were measured with a FACS FC500 System flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter South Africa (Pty) Ltd., Johannesburg, South Africa) equipped with an air-cooled argon laser excited at 488 nm. Results were expressed in percentage of cells in three categories, namely viable cells, apoptotic cells and necrotic cells.

Docetaxel-Induced Apoptosis Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tumor cells were treated with 20 ng mL−1 docetaxel for 12 h and digested with 0.25% trypsin. Apoptosis was detected using the Annexin V Apoptosis Detection Kit with propidium iodide (Cat# 640 932, Biolegend) following the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, cells were washed with PBS, and then incubated with 100 µL of Annexin V binding buffer containing 5 µL of APC‐conjugated Annexin V and 10 µL of propidium iodide solution for 15 min at 26 °C. Next, 400 µL of Annexin V Binding Buffer was added to each sample, and the cells were immediately analyzed by flow cytometry.

Apoptosis and Cell Cycle Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Apoptosis was assessed using the Annexin V Apoptosis Detection Kit with propidium iodide (PI) (Biolegend Pacific Blue™) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. For cell cycle analysis, DNA was stained with PI and cells were analysed using a BD LSRII flow cytometer. The percentage of cells in each stage of the cell cycle was then determined using the ModFit software (Verity Software House).

Evaluating Apoptosis in NPC Cells Exposed to γδ-T-Exos

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
NP69, HK-1, NPC43 or C666-1 cells were treated with PBS, γδ-T-Exos, γδ-T-Exos-depleted conditioned medium, or the ultracentrifuged pellets from non-conditioned FBS–exosome-free medium without γδ-T-cell components. Eighteen or 24 hours later, the cell apoptosis was detected using an Annexin V Apoptosis Detection Kit with propidium iodide (PI; BioLegend) as we did before.38 (link) In some experiments, γδ-T-Exos were stained with CFSE before incubation with NPC cells, and the cell death was determined at the indicated time. In some experiments, γδ-T-Exos were preincubated with blocking anti-FasL, anti-TRAIL antibodies or isotype control (BioLegend). In some experiments, activated caspase-3 was detected in permeabilized NPC cells after 4-hour exposure to γδ-T-Exos using an antiactive-caspase-3 monoclonal antibody (BD Pharmingen).39 (link) In some experiments, NPC cells were irradiated at 0, 1, or 3 Gy before treatment with γδ-T-Exos; then the cell apoptosis was determined as described earlier. In some experiments, NPC cells were treated with γδ-T-Exos or PBS in the presence or absence of 50% NPC supernatant.

Annexin V-PI Apoptosis Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For apoptosis assessment the Annexin V Apoptosis Detection kit with Propidium Iodide (PI) (Biolegend) was used according to the manufacturer’s instructions and BMDMs were measured using a LSR II flow cytometer. First, single cells were gated. PI + cells were identified as dead cells, Annexin V + cells were identified as apoptotic cells. The remaining cells were identified as live cells.

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.
