CYTO-ID® Autophagy Detection Kit measures autophagic vacuoles and monitors autophagic flux in lysosomally inhibited live cells using a novel dye that selectively labels accumulated autophagic ……
No transfection required
Proprietary dye includes titratable moieties specific for selectively staining autophagic vesicles
Protocol validated with known inhibitors and activators of autophagic activity
Rapidly quantifies autophagy in native heterogeneous cell populations
Eliminates need for time and effort-consuming transfection efficiency validation required with LC3-GFP transfection
Selective and comprehensive staining, allows measurement and differentiation between autophagic flux and autophagolysosome accumulation
Negligible staining of lysosomes reduces background seen with other dyes
Facilitates high-throughput screening of activators and inhibitors of autophagy
Applications: | Flow Cytometry, Fluorescence microscopy, Fluorescent detection, HTS |
Application Notes: | The CYTO-ID® Autophagy detection kit provides a rapid, specific and quantitative approach for monitoring autophagy in live cells by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, and microplate reader. |
Quality Control: | A sample from each lot of CYTO-ID® Autophagy detection kit is used to stain HeLa Cells as described in user manual. CYTO-ID® autophagy detection reagent is incorporated into induced cells, observed as accumulative typical spherical vacuoles in foci or throughout cytoplasm. Comparing to untreated HeLa cells, treated sample demonstrate significant increase in fluorescence under microscope. |

Scientific Background: | Autophagy is a stress-induced protective mechanism. Less active under basal conditions, the mechanism is utilized by eukaryotic cells through lysosome-mediated bulk degradation of cellular contents when subjected to certain hostile conditions such as nutrient depletion and chemical or environmental stress. The role of increased autophagic activity in the pathology of cancer, neurodegeneration, cardiovascular disease and diabetes has become widely recognized and commonly studied. Induction of autophagic flux can be visualized by enhanced accumulation of autophagic vesicles if lysosomal function is inhibited, preventing removal of these vesicles. |
Technical Info/Product Notes: | The CYTO-ID® Autophagy Detection kit is a member of the CELLESTIAL® product line, reagents and assay kits comprising fluorescent molecular probes that have been extensively benchmarked for live cell analysis applications.
