Fluence-dependent caspases activation in Foscan®-photosensitised MCF-7 cells. (A) MCF-7 cells were incubated with 1.5 × 10−6 M Foscan® for 3 h or (B) 24 h and subjected to equitoxic light doses. Western blotting was determined from cell lysates at 24 h after PDT by using specific antibodies of caspase-9, -7, -6 and PARP-cleaved forms. Control cells (NL) were subjected to Foscan® only (drug, no light).
