Effects of WSPM on the protein expression of caspase 3, 6, 8 and 9. The abscissa represents the exposure concentration of WSPM2.5 or WSPM10 (0, 12.5, 25, 50 and 200 µg/ml), while the ordinate represents the expression quantity of caspase 3, 6, 8 and 9. A549 cells were treated with WSPM2.5 or WSPM10 for 24 h, and the expression levels of caspase 3, 6, 8 and 9 were measured by ELISA (from top to bottom). *Compared with the solvent control group (0 µg/ml), P < 0.05; **Compared with the solvent control group (0 µg/ml), P < 0.01
