Phalloidin is a toxin isolated from the fungus Amanita phalloides. It is a bicyclic peptide that specifically binds and stabilizes actin filaments.
Fluorescent Phalloidin derivatives have been extensively used for monitoring actin expression and dynamics of the cytoskeleton network. The study of actin cytoskeleton regulation is of interest in the context of several pathophysiological processes such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases as well as fibrosis and vascular diseases.
PhenoVue Fluor 568 - Phalloidin can be used to vizualise actin filaments in indirect immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry, as well as high-content analysis and screening applications.

Cell Painting is a powerful high-content screening method which combines cell and computational biology to unravel cells’ responses and gain a deeper understanding of the effects of chemical and genetic perturbagens.
However, implementation of cell painting is not without its challenges - from choosing a cell model and labeling reagents, to optimizing instrumentation and making sense of the thousands of features that are extracted during data analysis.
