Introduction
Fig.1 Neuronal Death.1
A key feature of neurodegenerative diseases is the progressive degeneration and death of neurons, resulting in cognitive dysfunction and other neurological symptoms. This pathology has been observed in nearly every neurodegenerative disease, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and Huntington's disease (HD).
The mechanisms of neuronal death in neurodegenerative diseases are complex and diverse, mainly including oxidative stress, programmed cell necrosis, and autophagy dysfunction. Neuronal death is the core link in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, and understanding its specific mechanisms is of great importance for the development of new treatments.
Neuronal Death Assays
- Fluoro-Jade B Histofluorescence Assay
This is a histochemical method used to detect neuronal and glial cell death. Fluoro-Jade B stains all degenerating neurons but does not stain normal, healthy brain tissue. We offer a one-stop histofluorescence service with high-quality images, reliable quantification results, in-depth project reports, and quick turnaround times.

- Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Release Assay
When the plasma membrane of a cell is damaged, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is released, making it an excellent marker for cell death. This release can be utilized to quantify cell viability and cell death in vitro and in vivo.
- Annexin V-FITC/PI Dual Stain Assay
Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining is a technique used to identify different types of cell death, including apoptosis and necrosis, in neuronal cells. The combination of Annexin V-FITC and Propidium iodide (PI) allows researchers to distinguish three types of cells:
Live cells: Annexin V negative and PI negative
Early apoptotic cells: Annexin V positive, PI negative
Necrotic cells: Annexin V positive, PI positive

- Caspase Activity Assay
Caspase-3 is a caspase that belongs to the protease family and is one of the executioners of apoptosis. In addition, caspase-3 is not only involved in neuronal apoptosis but also related to synaptic plasticity. By detecting the relative activity of caspase, this method is also used to evaluate apoptosis.
