Specifications

The platform

Analysis of the efficacy of drug candidates on the induction (direct or indirect) of cell death in leukemia models.

The studies

Demonstration of cell death induction:

  • Apoptosis: BH3 profiling, Caspase assay, SiRNA, AV/Dapi, loss of mitochondrial potential
  • Autophagy: LC3 conversion, Cathepsin assay, MET
  • Ferroptosis: Lipid peroxidation, reversion by specific inhibitors, GPX4 activity assay, evaluation of intracellular ROS.
