Jian,
I wish I had as nice results as yours.

Caspace-3 indicates very early internal apoptotic changes which preceeds PS
translocation to the external membrane of the cells. It is the exposed PS
that annexin V detects.

Dear Dr. Darzynkievicz or other flow experts:

In my experiment for Apoptosis, I have a difficulty to understand population
(Caspase-3
"+" and Annexin V "-" cells.  Could you help me to explain this
population?!!  Attached is the FACS analysis results.

Thanks;

Jian She

Dear Dr. She,
Thank you for your interest in PharMingen's and Transduction Laboratories'
reagents. I am having a hard  time to explain why are you getting Caspase-3
"+" and Annexin "-" cells . I am going to pick other peoples brain :) , but
I would also recommend for you to send an e-mail to flow cytomerty mailing
group. It is great way to people like Dr. Darzynkievicz and other to help
with your question. You can address it: Dear flow experts :)  or something
like that. Many flow users read this every day and chances are somebody had
same issue.

Email address is :   cyto-request@flowcyt.cyto.purdue.edu

Please focus on:

The phenotype of Annexin V negative and Caspase-3 positive population.

What is biological mean?
