Several alternatives to BrdU are available for studying cell proliferation, including:
EdU (5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine): A thymidine analog that can be detected using click chemistry, offering a simpler and faster detection method compared to BrdU. Ki-67: A protein marker that is associated with cell proliferation and can be detected using immunohistochemistry. PCNA (Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen): Another protein marker used to identify proliferating cells in histological samples.
