Cleaved caspase 3 antibody

Manufactured by Cell Signaling Technology
Sourced in United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, Germany, China

The Cleaved caspase-3 antibody is a laboratory reagent that detects the presence of the cleaved form of the caspase-3 protein. Caspase-3 is a key enzyme involved in the apoptosis (programmed cell death) pathway. The antibody specifically recognizes the cleaved, active form of caspase-3, which is a widely used marker for the detection of cells undergoing apoptosis.

Radiation-Induced Gut Apoptosis Analysis

Prap1-/- and wild-type littermate controls at 8 weeks of age received 10 G radiation (225 kV and 17.7 mA) using a RS2000 X-ray irradiator (Rad Source Technologies, Buford, GA). Weight loss was monitored daily and the mice were killed once they reached 75% of their initial body weight. Apoptotic cells were visualized in tissue sections collected 6 hours after radiation challenge using the In Situ Cell Death detection kit (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and quantified by counting the number of positive cells per crypt in 10 random fields of view per mouse (n ≥ 9 mice) at 400× total magnification on an FV1000 confocal fluorescence microscope (Olympus). Cleaved caspase-3–positive cells were visualized 72 hours after radiation challenge using the polyclonal cleaved caspase-3 antibody from Cell Signaling (Danvers, MA). By using a total magnification of 200×, the number of positive cells in 120 random villi was enumerated for each mouse (n ≥ 6 mice), and, assuming an average of 86 enterocytes per villi, the proportion of positive cells was calculated.

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.
