Methods in Cell BiologyVolume 205 Death Part A

Cell Death, Part A, Volume 205 explores the diverse mechanisms and methodologies underlying cell death, providing an up-to-date resource for researchers and clinicians in the biomedical sciences. Chapters in this new release include Methodologies for Monitoring Alkaliptosis in Cancer Cells, Protein-complementation assay and DISC analysis, Detecting phosphorylated MLKL in murine tissues, Establishment of different cell death models (Apoptosis, Necroptosis, Pyroptosis), Implementation of the FENIX assay to determine anti-ferroptotic properties of test compounds, CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screens to identify drug resistance genes in Acute Myeloid Leukemia, and much more. Additional chapters cover Cell death assays for the detection of acute kidney tubular necrosis, Methods of cell death imaging by Incucyte and similar platforms, Super-resolution microscopy-based assessment of organellar redox-active iron distribution and its relevance for ferroptosis, Monitoring inflammasome activation by analyzing ASC specks and oligomerization, LPS-induced sepsis/ and TNF-induced SIRS (In vivo cell death models), Evaluating protease activation and inactivation of gasdermin cell death effectors, and Measurement of plasma membrane rupture via confocal microscopy.
