When cells undergo apoptosis, they activate endonuclease enzymes that cut the genomic DNA between nucleosomes. DNA ladder of 180-200bp was detected by electrophoresis after DNA extraction during apoptosis.
TUNEL (TdT mediated dUTP Nick End Labeling) Apoptosis detection kit (YSFluorTM 488) can be used to detect nuclear DNA fragmentation in the late apoptotic process of tissue cells. The principle is that under the action of Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase (TdT), YSFluorTM 488-12-DUTP is incorporated into the 3´ -hydroxyl (3´-OH) Terminal exposed during genomic DNA break. Thus, it can be detected by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.
YSFluorTM 488 dye is more stable and has a stronger signal, resulting in brighter markers and greater resistance to quench.
This kit has a wide range of applications and can be used to detect apoptosis in frozen or paraffin sections, as well as in cultured adherent or suspended cells.

【Notes】 Proteinase K helps tissues and cells become permeable to the staining reagents in subsequent steps. Too long incubation time will increase the risk of tissue sections falling off the carrier plate in subsequent washing steps, while too short incubation time may cause insufficient permeability treatment and affect labeling efficiency. To obtain better results, it may be necessary to optimize the incubation time of Proteinase K.
1.2.1. Remove frozen sections and return to room temperature. The slides were immersed in 4% paraformaldehyde solution (dissolved in PBS) and fixed, and incubated for 30 min at room temperature.
1.2.2. Gently remove excess liquid and use filter paper to carefully blot the excess liquid around the sample on the glass slide.
1.2.3. The slides were immersed in PBS solution, incubated at room temperature for 15 min, and washed with PBS again for 2 times in total.
1.2.4. Gently remove excess liquid and carefully blot the glass slide with filter paper to remove excess liquid around the sample. In this case, the paraffin pen or hydrophobic pen can be used to draw the outline of the sample distribution around the sample, which is convenient for downstream permeability processing and balance labeling operation. During the experiment, do not let the sample dry, and put the processed sample in the wet box to keep the sample wet.
1.2.5. 2 mg/mL Proteinase K solution was diluted with PBS at a ratio of 1:100 to reach a final concentration of 20 μg/mL.
1.2.6. 100 μL of Proteinase K solution at a concentration of 20 μg/mL was added to each sample to completely cover it and incubated at room temperature for 10 min.
【Notes】: Proteinase K helps tissues and cells to be permeable to staining reagents in subsequent steps. Too long incubation time will increase the risk of tissue sections falling off the carrier plate in subsequent washing steps, while too short incubation time may cause insufficient permeability treatment and affect labeling efficiency. It may be necessary to optimize the incubation time of Proteinase K if better results were not obtained.
1.2.7. Rinse the sample 2-3 times in an open beaker containing PBS solution.
【Notes】： In order to avoid the loss of sample peeling in the cleaning step, it is recommended not to wash the bottle, but to soak the glass slides in PBS solution 2-3 times for cleaning.
1.2.8. Gently remove excess liquid and use filter paper to carefully blot the liquid around the sample on the slide. The processed sample is placed in a wet box to preserve the moisture of the sample.
Adherent cells were cultured on Lab-Tek of Chamber Slides. After apoptosis induction treatment, slides were washed twice with PBS.
1.4.1. The cells were resuspended in PBS at a concentration of about 2 × 107 cells /mL, 50-100 μL of the cell suspension was aspirated onto poly-lysine coated slides, and the cell suspension was gently spread open with a clean slide.
1.4.2. The cells were fixed, and the slides were immersed in a staining tank containing 4% freshly prepared paraformaldehyde in PBS and placed at 4 ° C for 25 min.
1.4.3. The slides were washed, immersed in PBS, and left at room temperature for 5 min. Wash again with PBS.
1.4.4. Gently remove excess liquid and carefully blot the glass slide with filter paper to remove excess liquid around the sample. In this case, a paraffin pen or hydrophobic pen can be used to outline the distribution of the sample around the sample to facilitate downstream permeability processing and balance labeling operations. During the experiment, do not let the sample dry, and put the processed sample in the wet box to keep the sample wet.
1.4.5. 2 mg/mL Proteinase K solution was diluted with PBS at a ratio of 1:100 to reach a final concentration of 20 μg/mL.
1.4.6. 100 μL of Proteinase K solution at a concentration of 20 μg/mL was added to each sample to make it fully covered and incubated at room temperature for 5 min (it can also be immersed in 0.2% Triton X-100 solution prepared in PBS and incubated at room temperature for 5 min for permeability treatment).
【Notes】：Proteinase K helps tissues and cells to be permeable to staining reagents in subsequent steps. Too long incubation time will increase the risk of tissue sections falling off the carrier plate in subsequent washing steps, while too short incubation time may cause insufficient permeability treatment and affect labeling efficiency. It may be necessary to optimize the incubation time of Proteinase K if better results were not obtained.
1.4.7. Rinse the sample 2-3 times with PBS, gently remove excess liquid, and carefully blot the liquid around the sample on the slide with filter paper. The processed samples were placed in a wet box.
After sample permeation, cells were treated with DNase I to prepare positive control slides. This process usually causes most of the cells treated to show green fluorescence.
【Notes】 Dnase I treatment of immobilized cells causes breakage of chromosomal DNA, producing many 3 '-ends of DNA that can be labeled.
【Notes】: A separate staining tank must be used for the positive control slides, otherwise residual DNase I on the positive control slides may introduce a high background on the experimental slides.
3.1. Equilibration Buffer (5 × Equilibration Buffer) is diluted with deionized water in a ratio of 1:5 (100μL 1 × Equilibration Buffer is required for each sample).
3.2. Equilibration Buffer (100μL 1× Equilibration Buffer) was added to each sample to completely equilibrate the area and incubated for 10-30 min at RT. Alternatively, slide into a VAT with 1 x Equilibration Buffer to ensure that the slides are equilibrated. Thaw YSFluorTM 488-12-DUTP Labeling Mix on ice while balancing cells, and prepare enough TdT incubation buffer for all experiments and optional positive control reactions according to Table 1. For a standard reaction with an area of less than 5 cm2, the volume is 50 μl, and 50 μl is multiplied by the number of experimental and positive control reactions to determine the total volume of TdT incubation buffer required. For samples with larger surface areas, the reagent volume can be increased proportionally.
