General description

The Cell Death Detection ELISA serves as photometric enzyme immunoassay for the qualitative and quantitative in vitro determination of cytoplasmic histone-associated DNA fragments (mono- and oligonucleosomes) after induced cell death. This assay is based on the quantitative sandwich-enzyme immunoassay-principle using mouse monoclonal antibodies directed against DNA and histones, respectively. The antibodies used are not species specific.

Specificity

Anti-histone antibody reacts with the histones H1, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 of various species (e.g., human, mouse, rat, hamster, cow, opossum, and Xenopus). Anti-DNA-POD antibody binds to ss- and dsDNA. Therefore, the ELISA allows the detection of mono- and oligonucleosomes from various species, and may be applied to measure apoptotic cell death in many different cell systems.

Application

Cell Death Detection ELISA has been used to measure Caspase-3 activity, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell apoptosis.
For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Specific determination of mono- and oligonucleosomes in the cytoplasmic fraction of cell lysates.

Packaging

1 kit containing 9 components.

Preparation Note

Working solution: Coating solution
Predilute 1 ml Coating buffer conc. with 9 ml double dist. water. Shortly before use, dilute 1 ml anti-histone antibody (reconstituted) with 9 ml Coating buffer.

Washing solution
Warm the Washing buffer concentrate to 15 to 25 °C and dilute 40 ml in 360 ml double distilled water. Mix thoroughly.

Sample solution
Preparation of the sample solution depends on the cell system used and the extent of cell death.
Example: Dilute 25 μl of sample in 225 μl Incubation buffer.

Conjugate solution
Dilute 1 ml Anti-DNA-POD (reconstituted) with 9 ml Incubation buffer.

Substrate solution
Depending on the number of samples tested, dissolve 1, 2, or 3 tablets in 5, 10, or 15 ml Substrate buffer.
Allow to come to 15 to 25 °C before use.
Note: The ABTS solution is light sensitive over extended periods of time.

Approximately, 40-70% of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) are severely limited by their extremely poor aqueous solubility, and consequently, there is a high demand for excipients that can be used to formulate clinically relevant doses of these drug candidates. Here, proof-of-concept

Besides its role in glycolysis, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) initiates a cell death cascade. Diverse apoptotic stimuli activate inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) or neuronal NOS (nNOS), with the generated nitric oxide (NO) S-nitrosylating GAPDH, abolishing its catalytic activity and conferring

A growing number of studies have recently revealed a potential role for neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in the development of inflammation, coagulation and cell death. Deleterious consequences of NETs have been identified in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-induced organ damage, thrombosis and sepsis.
