Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for labeling or targeting cells whose plasma membrane has lost integrity, such as dead cells, such as for discriminating between live cells and cells whose plasma membrane has lost integrity; to an embodiment of the method for determining one or more values of one or more parameters of cells of a biological sample; to use of the method in an assay for screening drugs for therapy such as cancer therapy; to use of the method to monitor and/or determine the effectiveness of a therapy; to an assay kit; to a complex; to the complex for use as a medicament; to the complex for use in treatment of cancer(s) and/or plaque(s) and/or regeneration and/or supporting the immune system; and, to a dead cell.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for detecting cell death using a luminescent compound; to the luminescent compounds for particular uses; to a kit comprising said compounds and to a protein. The method is applicable for detecting cell death, essentially regardless of the mechanism through which cell death occurred or is occurring and is therefore not limited e.g. to detecting cell death resulting from only one mechanism selected from apoptosis and necrosis.

Abstract: A system comprising a targeting molecule for binding necrotic cells; to the system for use as a medicament; to use of the system for diagnosis; to the system for use in treatment of diseases involving necrotic cell death, to a dosage comprising the system; to a method for determining localization of the composition within a sample using said system; and, to a method for treatment of cancers and/or diseases involving necrotic cell death using said system. In particular the invention relates to compositions targeting necrotic cells.
