Description
The first part of the assay measures the activity of a protease marker of cell viability. The live-cell protease activity is restricted to intact viable cells and is measured using a fluorogenic, cell-permeant, peptide substrate (glycyl-phenylalanyl-amino fluorocoumarin; GF-AFC). The substrate enters intact cells, where it is cleaved by the live-cell protease activity to generate a fluorescent signal proportional to the number of living cells. The second part of the assay uses the Caspase-Glo™ Assay technology to detect caspase activation, a key biomarker of apoptosis. Adding the Caspase-Glo 3/7 Reagent in an “add-mix-measure” format results in cell lysis, followed by caspase cleavage of the substrate and generation of a “glow-type” luminescent signal that is proportional to the amount of caspase activity present.
- Accurately determines the mechanism of cell death in less time with less sample
- Easy-to-use “add-mix-measure” format
- Permits the normalization of caspase data with viability control, which is useful for determining the extent of caspase acivation and for normalizing cell numbers
- Scalable and easily automated in 96- and 384-well plates
- Reveals cell death even if the window of caspase activity is missed
- Allows further multiplexing with other assays with spectrally distinct fluorescent assay chemistries due to the nonlytic nature of the first step of the assay
