Fig. 7From: A novel anti-CD22 scFv–apoptin fusion protein induces apoptosis in malignant B-cellsApoptosis induced by scFv–apoptin in Raji and Jurkat cells assayed by Annexin-V/PI staining. a Percentage of specific apoptosis in Raji and Jurkat cells incubated with recombinant scFv–apoptin. 24, 48 and 72 h later, Annexin-V/PI staining was quantified by flow cytometric analysis. The rate of specific apoptosis in the Raji cells was significantly higher than that of Jurkat cells. Data represents mean ± standard deviation from 3 independently performed experiments (*p < 0.05). Flow cytometric graphs of un-treated (b) and scFv–apoptin treated (c) Raji cells incubated for 24 (1), 48 (2) and 72 (3) h. early apoptotic cells are Annexin-V-positive, PI-negative (lower right), whereas late apoptotic cells are Annexin-V positive and PI-positive (upper right)Back to article page
