Early during the process of apoptosis, cells lose their phospholipid membrane asymmetry and expose phosphatidylserine (PS) at the cell s h c e while maintaiaing their plasma membrane integrity intact. This process can be monitored for suspended cell types by using annexin V-FITC, which is a Ca\*+-de
We have developed a "test-tube" assay to determine the biological activity of synthetic preparations of human calcitonin (hCT). The method is based on the dosedependent accumulation of cyclic AMP in cell membrane preparations on stimulation with CT. As an unlimited cell source, we used the clonal ce
