Fig. 2

ALA-PDT inhibits lipid accumulation in XL-i-20 sebocytes. A Fluorescence intensity of XL-i-20 sebocytes after incubated with 0.5 mM ALA for 0–24 h detected via a fluorescence spectrophotometer. B Viability of XL-i-20 sebocytes incubated with 0.5 mM ALA for different durations and illuminated with red light at different doses. C ROS production and live/dead cell staining of XL-i-20 sebocytes were observed via fluorescence microscopy. D Nile red staining and BODIPY staining of XL-i-20 sebocytes 24 h after ALA-PDT. E ROS semiquantitative analysis and counting of living/dead cells in 2 C. Semiquantitative analysis of lipid droplets per cell in 2D. F Western blot of FAS, SREBP1 and PPARγ proteins in XL-i-20 sebocytes 24 h after ALA-PDT. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
