FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) is a fluorescent probe for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) dextran (Ex=495 nm; Em=525 nm). FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) can be used as a marker to reveal heat shock-induced cell damage and to study the early and late stages of apoptosis. FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) can also be used for cell permeability studies, such as blood-brain barrier permeability and determination of the extent of blood-brain barrier disruption^[1][2][3].

Guidelines (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs).

細(xì)胞標(biāo)記^[1]:
適用于正在發(fā)生凋亡的 HeLa 細(xì)胞和人外周血單個(gè)核細(xì)胞 (PBMC) (活的 HeLa 和 PBMC 不被 FITC-Dextran 染色)。
1. 43.5°C 孵育 1 h，37°C 孵育 8 h，誘導(dǎo)細(xì)胞凋亡。
2. 將細(xì)胞懸浮在 100 μL 的培養(yǎng)基中，在 Q-prep 管與 10 μL 的 propidium iodide (PI)，10 μL 的 FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) 混合，PI 和 FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) 的最終濃度分別為 7.5 μM 和 1.13 μM。
3. 將細(xì)胞在室溫黑暗條件下培養(yǎng) 25 分鐘。
4. 取 3 mL 培養(yǎng)基的標(biāo)記細(xì)胞，500 g 離心 10 分鐘。
5. 取離心細(xì)胞，加入 1 mL 培養(yǎng)基，用流式細(xì)胞術(shù)或熒光顯微鏡分析 (PI: Ex=500 nm, Em=600 nm; FITC-Dextran (MW 10000): Ex=495 nm, Em=525 nm)。


細(xì)胞旁滲透性檢測(cè)^[4]
1. 在 transwell 室的基礎(chǔ)培養(yǎng)基中加入 FITC-Dextran (0.1 mg/mL)。
2. 在 15 分鐘后從 transwell 插入器中收集培養(yǎng)基。
3. 測(cè)量熒光信號(hào) (Ex=485 nm, Em=538 nm)。
4. 根據(jù)熒光強(qiáng)度計(jì)算 FITC-Dextran 濃度。
5. 計(jì)算滲透率。
