Abstract | Autophagy is deregulated in cancer cells and often activated as a cellular stress response to anticancer therapies. Flow cytometry-based assays enable detection and quantification of various cellular markers in live or fixed cells. Here, a flow cytometry-based assay to characterize autophagy across the cell cycle is described. This method is based on selective plasma membrane permeabilization with digitonin and extraction of membrane-unbound LC3 protein followed by staining of the autophagosome-bound LC3 protein with antibody and labeling of DNA with propidium iodide. Staining with the LC3 antibody described here can be also combined with the staining of other cellular markers, allowing to quantitatively assess autophagy in relation to different cellular processes by flow cytometry. |
