DAOY cells were seeded onto eight wells coverslips for 24 h in media. Rhodamine-GuaDex was prepared as previously [21 (link)]. The cells were PBS washed, incubated with Rhodamine-GuaDex at 5 µM for 1 h in PBS, and then washed twice with PBS. Cells were then incubated with 10 µL Annexin V-FITC detection kit (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis MO, USA) in PBS for 30 min at 4 °C dark and RT. After staining, the cells were washed carefully and prepared with DAPI mounting medium. A confocal microscope (Leica SP5) was used for the image analysis.
