Annexin 5 pi assay

Manufactured by BD
Sourced in United States

The Annexin V/PI assay is a flow cytometry-based technique used to detect and quantify apoptosis in cell populations. Annexin V is a protein that binds to phosphatidylserine, which is exposed on the surface of apoptotic cells. Propidium iodide (PI) is a DNA-binding dye that can enter cells with compromised membranes, such as late apoptotic or necrotic cells. This assay allows for the identification of early apoptotic, late apoptotic, and necrotic cells in a sample.

Cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed using propidium iodide (1 mg/ml) and ribonuclease-A (10 g/ml) (PI/RNase; BD Biosciences), and Annexin V/PI assay by flow cytometry (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) respectively as we previously described (37 (link)).

Before exposure to the treatment conditions, cells were grown in 12-well plates until 70% confluence. Detection of apoptosis was done by Annexin V/PI Assay (BD Pharmingen, Bedford, MA, USA), according to the manufacturer's protocol. Briefly, cells were collected by trypsinization, washed twice with PBS and stained with 5 μl of Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate and 5 μl of PI (5 μg/ml) in binding buffer for 15 min at room temperature in dark. The apoptotic cells were determined by FACSVerse (Model RUO 3L8C) flow cytometer (BD Biosciences).

Apoptosis Measurement by Flow Cytometry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Briefly, after the indicated treatment, both floating and non-floating cells were collected and washed twice in PBS. The level of apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry using the Annexin V/PI assay (BD, Biosciences) according to the manufacturer's protocol using BD LSRII (BD, Biosciences) equipment. Data were collected on 10,000 cells. Apoptotic fractions were determined where cells positive for Annexin V staining but not propidium iodide were counted.

Inhibition of ILK in Cancer Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Imatinib and nilotinib were synthesized by Novartis Pharma AG, Basel, Switzerland. Compound 22 (Cpd22) [12 (link)], a tri-substituted pyrazol compound that reportedly inhibits ILK with an IC50 of 600 nM, was purchased from EMD Millipore (Billerica, MA) (Figure 1A). Compounds were initially dissolved in DMSO to make 10 mM stock solutions, and then were serially diluted to obtain final concentrations for in vitro experiments. Propidium iodide (PI), RNAase and MTT solution were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Saint Louis, MO), mAbs for Western blotting from Cell Signaling Technologies (Danvers, MA), and Annexin-V/PI assay from BD Biosciences (San Jose, CA).

Cell Viability and Apoptosis Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell viability was assessed with the CellTiter 96® AQueous One Solution Cell Proliferation (Promega, Cat# G3582) following manufacturer’s recommendations. Briefly, cells were seeded into 96-well plates at 3,000 cells/well in complete medium and incubated for 24 hr. Each drug was then added at various concentrations to triplicate wells in a final volume of 100 μL of medium. After 72 hr of incubation, 20 μL of MTS tetrazolium reagent was added, and the incubation was continued for an additional 2 hr at 37°C. The absorbance of soluble MTS tetrazolium formazan produced by viable cells following drug exposure was measured at 490 nm using a microplate reader. The sensitivity of cells to each drug was expressed as a percentage of the vehicle-treated control. For apoptosis assays, after the indicated treatment, both floating and non-floating cells were collected and washed twice in PBS. The level of apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry using the Annexin V/PI assay (BD, Biosciences, Cat#556547) according to the manufacturer’s protocol using BD LSRII (BD, Biosciences) equipment. Data were collected on 10,000 cells and analyzed with FlowJo software (FlowJo, RRID:SCR_008520).

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.
