Activation of the stress-activated JNK and p38 MAP kinases in human cells by Photofrin-mediated photodynamic therapy
Abstract
We have examined the possible role of the stress-activated JNK and p38 protein kinases in cellular sensitivity following Photofrin-mediated photodynamic therapy (PDT). Previously we reported that immortalized Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) cells are more resistant to Photofrin-mediated PDT compared to normal human fibroblasts (NHF) at equivalent cellular Photofrin levels. In the current work we report that Photofrin-mediated PDT increased the …
