Programmed cell death (PCD) is a critical process that underlies normal tissue development and serves as a homeostatic mechanism to maintain cell populations. The main form of PCD is known as apoptosis, which results in the activation of numerous proteolytic enzymes termed caspases. This review focuses on the detection of caspase-3, an executioner caspase for the induction of apoptosis,

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Western Blot

Sample

Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs)

Primary Incubation

5% skim milk in TBST with anti-cleaved caspase-3 1/1000- 1 hour at room temperature

Blocking Agent

5% skim milk in TBST - 10 minutes at room temperature.

Secondary Incubation

1/10000, room temperature for 1 hour in TBST 5% skim milk

Tertiary Incubation

NA

Detection

HRP- chemiluminescence

Results Summary

MEFS were treated with apoptotic stimuli as shown (ST, Staurosporine or E, Etoposide) and samples were subjected to Western blot analysis. Apoptosis was identified by the detection of cleaved caspase-3.
