Annexin 5 fitc assay kit

Manufactured by Cayman Chemical
Sourced in United States

The Annexin V FITC Assay Kit is a laboratory product that is used to detect and quantify apoptotic cells. It contains Annexin V, a protein that binds to phosphatidylserine, a molecule that is exposed on the surface of cells undergoing apoptosis. The Annexin V is labeled with the fluorescent dye FITC, allowing the detection of apoptotic cells by flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.

Rat skin fibroblasts FR (ATCC® CRL1213™) were seeded in 96-well plates at 1 × 105 cells/mL and allowed to reach log phase growth. On day four, complete growth media was aspirated. In initial studies, 100 μl of one of the following treatments were added: 0, 0.00002, 0.0002, 0.002, 0.02, 0.2, 2, 20, 200 or 500 μM concentrations of DON (Sigma-Aldrich) or the positive control 6 μM camptothecin (Sigma-Aldrich) in OptiMem (Invitrogen) with 3% FBS. Following a one, two, four or six-hour incubation, the treatments were aspirated and the cells were assessed for differences in apoptosis and cell viability. For later studies, 100 μl of the following treatments were added: 0, 2, 20, or 200 μM concentrations of DON (Sigma-Aldrich) and the positive control 6 μM camptothecin (Sigma-Aldrich) in OptiMem (Invitrogen) 3% FBS. Following forty-eight hours incubation, the treatments were aspirated and the cells were assessed for differences in apoptosis and cell viability. The Annexin V FITC assay kit (Cayman Chemical 600300) was used to detect apoptosis and cell viability. Absorbance and fluorescence were read at 485nm excitation/535nm emission. Results were obtained using a Multimode Detector DTX 880 (Beckman Coulter).

CHO-K1 and CHO-Bcl-xL cells were cultured on sterile black 96-well plates and pretreated with 500 nM Tg, 3 μM staurosporine (STA) or 50 μM camptothecin (Camp). Apoptosis was then analyzed using an Annexin V FITC Assay Kit (Cayman Chemical) or a Caspase-Glo Assay Kit (Promega) using either a VICTOR 3 plate reader (PerkinElmer) or a Genios plate reader (TECAN), respectively.

Exposed phosphatidyl serine was measured using an Annexin V FITC Assay kit (Cayman, Ann Arbor, MI, USA) following the manufacturer’s indications. Briefly, 2.5 million NEU/mL were placed into FACS tubes (FALCON; Becton Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) in the presence of 40 µL of APTP, HHC, or HLT sera or 10 µL of zymosan (50 µg/mL) for 8 hours. A total of 200 µL of binding buffer was then added, and the tubes were centrifuged to remove the supernatants. The cell pellets were resuspended in 50 µL of staining solution (FITC-Annexin V-propidium iodide) for 10 minutes. Next, the cells were analyzed using a Facscalibur flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson) and the data were processed with the FlowJo software for early apoptosis and late apoptosis.

Assessing Cell Damage and Toxicity

To assess possible cell damage and toxicity effects of the used compounds, we used the commercial QuantiChrom Lactate Dehydrogenase Kit (BioAssays Systems, Hayward, CA, USA) for a colorimetric kinetic determination of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity. The analysis was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The culture media from PBMCs, stimulated as indicated in the figure legends, were assessed for released LDH, with a detection limit from 2 IU/L up to 200 IU/L. Cell apoptosis was assessed by means of an annexin V FITC assay kit (Cayman Chemical) via FACS analysis gated on the lymphocytes. Propidium iodide served as a marker of cell death in this assay.

Binding of annexin V to translocate the phospholipid phosphotidylserine (PS) allows for the detection and analysis of apoptotic cells
[51 (link),56 (link),57 (link)]. These assays were performed using the Annexin V FITC Assay Kit as indicated by the manufacturer (Cayman Chemical Co.) with a few modifications. Briefly, C6/36 clonal cell lines stably expressing αDENV-U143-FL, αDENV-ΔU143-ΔN Bax or αDENV-U143-ΔN Bax ΔN Bax and wild type C6/36 cells were infected with each DENV serotype (MOI = 0.1). At 48 hpi 1 × 106 clonal cells were scraped and placed in a well of a 96 well black opaque microtiter plate in triplicate for each clonal cell type assayed. FITC-annexin V microtiter plates were assayed for FITC-annexin V binding at 485 nm with the Spectra max M2 luminometer (Molecular Devices) and analyzed with Softmax Pro 5.4.5. Uninfected clonal and wild type C6/36 cells were also assayed as an additional negative control. Assays were performed in triplicate. Error bars indicate standard deviation of three independent experiments.

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.
