Millipore’s FlowCellect™ DNA Damage (Histone H2A.X) and Cell Cycle Analysis Kit is designed to identify the linkage between DNA damage in relation to cell cycle checkpoints in flow cytometry applications.
The kit includes a directly conjugated Anti-phospho-Histone H2A.X (Ser139) Alexa Fluor® 488 antibody plus a DNA dye (Propidium Iodide) which allows the researcher to perform bivariate analysis to identify where DNA damage takes place relative to the positioning within the cell cycle.
The kit includes an optimized protocol with all of the necessary components to provide the researcher a true “plug and play” design for their research when studying DNA damage and cell cycle checkpoints.
This immunocytochemical method is very sensitive, and it offers an assay to screen anti-tumor drugs at every phase of the cell cycle.
Multiple Flow Cytometric Approaches for Studying DNA Damage Pathways and Assessing the Level of the Cellular Responses to DNA Damage
Investigation of DNA damage pathways and assessment of the DNA damage levels in cells are extremely important for the study of cancer and developing anti-cancer drugs, as defects in DNA damage pathways can cause cancer and lead to genetic instability and ultimately uncontrolled cell growth. In this scientific poster several assays were successfully used in the evaluation of DNA damaging and anti-neoplastic agents. Their impact on the cell cycle was assessed, which helped elucidate the mechanisms of cell proliferation, apoptosis, and DNA repair, ultimately advancing the study for cancer research.
