A new one-step labeling procedure using the membrane permeant fluorescent probe yopro-1 in association with fluorescence microtitration for the rapid determination of apoptosis is reported. Programmed cell death was induced by the pro-apoptotic agents etoposide and staurosporine, and measured in nonadherent HL60 cells and adherent phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-treated HL60 cells. Cell viability was controlled by trypan blue exclusion and calcein-AM staining. To confirm results of fluorescence microplate assay, apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry analysis using the same fluorescent probe, and results showed corresponding data between both procedures. Development of apoptosis was confirmed by the presence of PARP (poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage and nuclear DAPI (4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) staining, two well-known methods used to investigate apoptosis. The fluorescence microplate assay was also applied to measure apoptosis in cells exposed to an oxidative stress induced by tert-butylhydroperoxide (t-BHP), and results confirmed the potential of the fluorescence microplate assay in measuring events of apoptosis, especially in adherent, cultured, living cells.
