Abstract excerpt
A431 cells/UVC-induced apoptosis/Caspase 8/Fas/JNK/PAPK. We previously observed that p53-mutated human epithelial tumor A431 cells underwent apoptosis after ultraviolet C (UVC) irradiation through the caspases-8 and -3 pathway. Fas/FasL is known to initiate apoptosis in several cell lines via caspase-8 activation. Then, to determine if Fas/FasL mediates apoptosis in A431. we investigated Fas expression and...
