Caspase 3/7 activity was analyzed using a Caspase-3/7 fluorescence assay kit (Cayman Chemical; Ann Arbor, MI, USA) following the manufacturer’s protocols. In brief, 104 NHEK-Ad cells were plated into 96-well cell culture plates (SPL). At 80% confluence, the cells were irradiated with 120 mJ/cm2 UV light with or without pre-treatment of DeinoPol (10 μg). After 3 h, cells were lysed, followed by incubation of 90 μL cell lysate and 10 μL caspase 3/7 substrate solution. The fluorescence intensity of each well was measured with excitation 485 nm and emission 535 nm using a Victor X3 light plate reader (PerkinElmer).
