Following treatment with either Green 1(A) Pancreatic cancer cells (BxPC-3 and PANC-1) and normal human and fetal fibroblasts (NHFs and NFFs) were incubated with Hoechst 33342 dye to characterize nuclear morphology and detect the induction of apoptosis. Brightly stained, condensed nuclei accompanied by apoptotic bodies are indicative of apoptosis.
