Apoptosis or programmed cell death is an evolutionary conserved; intrinsic program of cell death that occurs in various physiological and pathological situations. It is a key regulator of physiological growth control and regulation of tissue homeostasis. Apoptosis is considered a vital component of various processes including normal cell turnover; proper development and functioning of the immune system; hormone-dependent atrophy; embryonic development and chemical-induced cell death. The term apoptosis (a-po-toe-sis) was first used in a now-classic paper by Kerr; Wyllie; and Currie in 1972 to describe a morphologically distinct form of cell death; although certain components of the apoptosis concept had been explicitly described many years previously. Apoptosis is characterized by specific morphological changes of the dying cells; namely; loss of membrane asymmetry; cytoskeleton remodeling; plasma membrane blebbing; loss of the mitochondrial membrane potential; caspase activation; chromatin condensation; and DNA fragmentation. During apoptosis; the asymmetric distribution of phospholipids of the plasma membrane gets lost and phosphatidylserine (PS) is translocated to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane. There; PS acts as one major “eat me” signal that ensures efficient recognition and uptake of apoptotic cells by phagocytes. Once on the cell surface; PS can be easily detected by staining with a fluorescent conjugate of Annexin V; a 35-36 kDa Ca2+ dependent phospholipid-binding protein that has a high affinity for PS; and binds to cells with exposed PS. The one-step staining procedure takes only 10 minutes. Detection can be analyzed by flow cytometry or by fluorescence microscopy. Annexin V may be conjugated to fluorochromes including FITC. This format retains its high affinity for PS and thus serves as a sensitive probe for flow cytometric analysis of cells that are undergoing apoptosis.
