In Vitro
Norfluoxetine (0.1-10 μM; 12-24 h) inhibits full-length human TREK-2 channels expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes with an IC50 of 2.7 μM at +40 mV; inhibition is reduced by TPA and ML335 but not by tetraethylammonium or 2-APB[1].
Norfluoxetine (10-100 μM) reduces single-channel open probability, current amplitude, mean open time, and mean short closed time of truncated human TREK-2 channels reconstituted in lipid bilayers, with increased inhibitory efficacy at voltages above +60 mV, and exhibits similar inhibitory efficacy in high-Po and standard gating modes[1].
Norfluoxetine (10 μM) significantly attenuates nitric oxide and TNF release from lipopolysaccharide-activated primary rat microglia[2].
Norfluoxetine (10-30 μM) reduces protein levels in non-activated primary rat microglia in a dose-dependent manner[2].
Norfluoxetine (10-30 μM) reduces viability of non-activated primary rat microglia in a dose-dependent manner[2].
Norfluoxetine (10 μM) significantly increases the number of dead non-activated primary rat microglia, as measured by live/dead nuclear staining[2].
Norfluoxetine (10 μM) significantly increases the percentage of non-activated primary rat microglia expressing the apoptotic marker cleaved-caspase 3[2].
Norfluoxetine (10-20 μM; 24 h) induces apoptosis in non-activated primary rat microglia by increasing cleaved-caspase 3 and decreasing full-length caspase 3, without altering caspase 8 levels[2].
Norfluoxetine (1-100 μM; 30 s) concentration-dependently inhibits voltage-gated Ca2+ channel-mediated Ba2+ currents in isolated rat cochlear neurons with an EC50 of 20.4 μM[3].

Apoptosis
Apoptosis, also called programmed cell death, is generally characterized by distinct morphological characteristics.
-
TUNEL staining for apoptotic DNA fragmentation
TUNEL staining detects DNA strand breaks by using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase to add labeled nucleotides to exposed 3′-OH DNA termini, generating either microscopic staining in fixed cells or tissue sections, or fluorescence/cytometric signal in cell suspensions. TUNEL positivity reflects DNA fragmentation but should not be interpreted alone as definitive apoptosis, because TUNEL can also label necrotic, autolytic, mechanically damaged, or DNA-repair-associated DNA breaks.

Annexin V plus membrane-impermeant dye apoptosis staining
Annexin V-based apoptosis assays rely on the detection of phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization from the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane to the outer leaflet, an early biochemical hallmark of apoptosis. Fluorescently labeled Annexin V binds PS in a calcium-dependent manner, enabling identification of early apoptotic cells by flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy. When combined with a membrane-impermeant DNA-binding dye (e. g. , propidium iodide), this approach allows discrimination between viable (Annexin V−/dye−), early apoptotic (Annexin V+/dye−), and late apoptotic or necrotic (Annexin V+/dye+) cell populations by assessing membrane integrity and PS exposure.

Apoptosis Solutions
Apoptosis is a regulated, generally non-lytic cell-death pathway that removes unwanted, damaged, infected, or abnormal cells through coordinated morphological changes, caspase activation, DNA fragmentation, and membrane remodeling. The intrinsic apoptosis pathway is controlled mainly by mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization, BCL-2 family proteins, cytochrome c release, apoptosome formation, caspase-9 activation, and downstream executioner caspase-3/7 activation. The extrinsic apoptosis pathway is initiated by death receptors such as Fas, TNFR, and TRAIL receptors, which recruit adaptor proteins and activate caspase-8 before engaging executioner caspases or mitochondrial amplification through BID cleavage. Apoptosis is linked to many phenotypes, including cancer cell killing, tissue homeostasis, immune regulation, neurodegeneration, infection response, and treatment-induced cytotoxicity; unresolved questions include how apoptosis interacts with necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptos

Research Protocol for Inflammation-related Diseases
The NLRP3 inflammasome is a cytosolic innate immune signaling platform that integrates priming signals and danger-signal activation to promote caspase-1 activation, maturation of IL-1β and IL-18, and gasdermin D-mediated pyroptotic cell death. The core experimental logic is to determine whether inflammatory disease phenotypes are driven by increased NLRP3 expression, ASC-containing inflammasome assembly, caspase-1 cleavage, GSDMD cleavage, and extracellular release of IL-1β/IL-18 rather than by nonspecific cell injury alone. The pathway is strongly linked to inflammation-related disease phenotypes because monosodium urate crystals activate NALP3/NLRP3 inflammasome signaling in gout-like crystal inflammation, cholesterol crystals activate NLRP3 inflammasomes in atherogenesis models, and DSS-induced intestinal inflammation has been reported to involve NLRP3 inflammasome activity. However, experimental colitis studies also show context-dependent protective effects of NLRP3 inflammasome co

Ca2+ Staining Technique
Ca2+ staining is an experimental technique that utilizes specific fluorescent probes (such as Fluo-4 AM, Fura-2, etc.) to qualitatively or quantitatively detect dynamic changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations; this is achieved by monitoring the changes in fluorescent signals generated when these probes bind to free intracellular calcium ions. The underlying principle relies primarily on the presence of chelating groups within the probe's molecular structure that possess high affinity for calcium ions.
