Light-induced activation of MAPK/ERK pathway in mice. a PC6-3 cells were co-transfected with pCMVd2-Dr-TrkA, pFA-Elk-1, and pFR-RLuc8 plasmids and injected 25 h later in mammary glands of female mice. Mice were kept in transparent cages and illuminated from below with either 660/25 nm or 780/25 nm LED arrays at 3 mW cm−2 for 19 h. Then, animals were injected with a coelenterazine substrate for RLuc8 luciferase through retro-orbital vein and immediately imaged with an IVIS Spectrum instrument. b Quantification of the RLuc8 reporter signals shown in a.
