To investigate the mechanism of arsenic-induced apoptosis and related alterations in NF-kappa B and AP-1 activity, we exposed cultured human foreskin keratinocytes to different concentrations of sodium arsenite.
At higher concentrations (> or =5 microM), arsenic induced keratinocyte apoptosis by the Fas/Fas ligand (FasL) pathway.

We show in the present study that gamma-irradiation, as well as alpha-particle exposure, dramatically increases the susceptibility of melanoma cells to recombinant tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-mediated apoptosis via up-regulation of surface TRAIL-receptor 1/receptor 2 (DR4/DR5) levels and to Fas ligand-mediated apoptosis via up-regulation of surface Fas levels.
