Abstract

- Hypericin-photodynamic therapy induces phox-ER stress both in vitro and in vivo.
- Phox-ER stress activates PERK and CHOP.
- Phox-ER stress causes up-regulation of BH3-only proteins, Bim and Noxa.
- Noxa, but not Bim, contributes toward phox-ER stress induced apoptosis.
- PERK regulates Noxa in a CHOP-independent, temporally-defined manner.
