What are the fluorescence excitation/emission maxima for the FAM-DEVD-FMK FLICA reagent, Hoechst 33342, and propidium iodide supplied in the Vybrant FAM Caspase-3 and -7 Assay Kit, for flow cytometry?
Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-Induced Protein 1 (MCPIP1) Enhances Angiogenic and Cardiomyogenic Potential of Murine Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

PubMed ID:26214508
'The current evidence suggests that beneficial effects of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) toward myocardial repair are largely due to paracrine actions of several factors. Although Monocyte chemoattractant protein-induced protein 1 (MCPIP1) is involved in the regulation of inflammatory response, apoptosis and angiogenesis, whether MCPIP1 plays any role in stem cell-induced ...

Multiparametric evaluation of apoptosis: effects of standard cytotoxic agents and the cyanoguanidine CHS 828.
Authors:Lövborg H, Nygren P, Larsson R
Journal:Mol Cancer Ther
PubMed ID:15141009
'A multiparametric high-content screening assay for measurement of apoptosis was developed. HeLa cells and lymphoma U-937 cells were exposed to cytotoxic drugs in flat-bottomed optical microtiter plates. After incubation, the DNA-binding dye Hoechst 33342, fluorescein-tagged probes that covalently bind active caspases and chloromethyl-X-rosamine to detect mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were ...

Flow cytometry-based apoptosis detection.
Authors:Wlodkowic D, Skommer J, Darzynkiewicz Z,
Journal:Methods Mol Biol
PubMed ID:19609746
'An apoptosing cell demonstrates multitude of characteristic morphological and biochemical features, which vary depending on the stimuli and the cell type. The gross majority of classical apoptotic hallmarks can be rapidly examined by flow and image cytometry. Cytometry thus became a technology of choice in diverse studies of cellular demise. ... More
BH3-only protein Noxa regulates apoptosis in activated B cells and controls high-affinity antibody formation.
Authors:Wensveen FM, Derks IA, van Gisbergen KP, de Bruin AM, Meijers JC, Yigittop H, Nolte MA, Eldering E, van Lier RA,
Journal:Blood
PubMed ID:22144184
The efficiency of humoral immune responses depends on the selective outgrowth of B cells and plasma cells that produce high affinity antibodies. The factors responsible for affinity maturation of B cell clones in the germinal center (GC) have been well established but selection mechanisms that allow clones to enter the ... More
In vitro primary human lymphocyte flow cytometry based micronucleus assay: simultaneous assessment of cell proliferation, apoptosis and MN frequency.
Authors:Lukamowicz M, Kirsch-Volders M, Suter W, Elhajouji A,
Journal:Mutagenesis
PubMed ID:21791709
In order to minimise the number of positive in vitro cytogenetic results which are not confirmed in rodent carcinogenicity tests, biological systems that are p53 and DNA repair proficient should be recommended. Moreover, an appropriate cytotoxicity parameter for top dose selection should be considered. Recent International Conference on Harmonisation draft ... More
