The HDAC fluorometric cellular activity assay allows the determination of deacetylase activity within an undisturbed cellular environment and provides accurate activity information that is reflective of endogenous regulation. It also allows the study of the effects of upstream regulators on deacetylase activity and the detection of inhibitors or activators that act indirectly to affect deacetylase activity.

For the effective isolation of a highly enriched mitochondrial fraction from the cytosolic fraction of various mammalian cells including both apoptotic an non-apoptotic cells. The enriched mitochondrial and cytosolic fractions can be used to study apoptosis and signal trasduction pathways by detecting translocations of factors of interest between the two fractions by ELISA, Western blot or other assays.

MTT, XTT, and resazurin are reduced by mitochondrial metabolic activity to yield coloured or fluorescent products, and thus are useful for and assaying cell viability and quantitating cell number. MTT and XTT are reduced to coloured formazin salts that can be measured by absorbance. MTT generates an insoluble formazin salt, requiring cell lysis before the absorbance can be measured, while XTT does not require cell lysis for measurement. Resazurin is a non-fluorescent blue dye that is reduced to the pink fluorescent compound resorufin, which can be measured by fluorescence or absorbance.

TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) mediated dUTP nick-end labeling) is highly selective for the detection of apoptotic cells, but not necrotic cells or cells with DNA strand breaks resulting from irradiation or drug treatment. In this assay, TdT enzyme catalyses the addition of labeled dUTP to the 3’ ends of cleaved DNA fragments. Fluorescent dye-conjugated dUTP can be used for direct detection of fragmented DNA by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.
