Abstract |
High content imaging-based cell cycle analysis allows multiplexing of various parameters including DNA content, DNA synthesis, cell proliferation, and other cell cycle markers such as phosho-histone H3. 5'-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation is a thymidine analog that provides a sensitive method for the detection of DNA synthesis in proliferating cells that is a more convenient method than the traditional BrdU detection by antibody. Caspase 3 is activated in programmed cell death induced by both intrinsic (mitochondrial) and extrinsic factors (death ligand). Cell cycle and apoptosis are common parameters studied in the phenotypic analysis of compound toxicity and anti-cancer drugs. In this chapter, we describe methods for the detection of s-phase cell cycle progression by EdU incorporation, and caspase 3 activation using the CellEvent caspase 3/7 detection reagent. |
