Do you want to check the proliferation? You can also quantify DNA proliferation either BrdU staining or simplest method is to lyse the cells, isolate DNA and stain with Hoechest Dye and quantify fluorescence by Fluorimeter. Is that sound good to you. All the best :)
I guess you would like to check the amount of cell death. For this a similar but better assay is the WST-1 assay done on Elisa reader. Its faster, easier and more accurate
You can perform flow cytometric experiments using 7-Amino-actinomycin D (7-AAD) fluorescence dye, which exclusively penetrate the cell membrane of dead cells and stain the DNA, however, it is impermeable to the live cells.
