Photodynamic Therapies In article 2201613 by Chia-Hao Su, Chen-Sheng Yeh, and co-workers, the concept of self-supplying H2O2 O2 is presented an all-in-one nanoreactor to process generation, chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (CRET) activated generated H2O2, energy-transfer excite photosensitizer resulting in singlet oxygen formation. This allows conduction external light-fee CRET-media...

We offer a personal account of the discovery and development photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy (PDT) cancer, from bench to bedside. emphasize more chemical aspects of...

Low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) reconstituted with a multifunctional mitochondrion-targeting photosensitizer are able to achieve fluorescence-feedback photodynamic therapy of LDL receptor-overexpressing cancer cells.

A clinical case of a combined application photodynamic and light-oxygen therapy in patient with vulgar acne is described. For therapy, photosensitizer “Sigrinol” mercury-quartz irradiator on tripod ORK-21M radiation source lamp DRT 400 were used. – “Super Seb” diode laser. After the treatment complete remission was achieved.

BACKGROUND Increasing resistance of oral pathogens to conventional antibacterial agents has resulted to find alternative therapies to overcome resistance development problems; hence this in vitro study was carried out to investigate the efficacy of photoelimination of Streptococcus mutans with two methods of photodynamic and photothermal therapy. METHODS Standard Suspensions of S. mutans were...

DNA nanolanterns, a pure assembly, are used as biocompatible drug carriers to prepare nanocomposite photosensitizer for highly efficient photodynamic therapy in the biological transparent window.

The system of partial differential equations describing tumor-immune dynamics with angiogenesis taken into account is presented. For spatially homogeneous case, the steady state analysis of the model is carried out. The effects of single photodynamic impact are numerically simulated. In the case of strong immune response we found that the photodynamic therapy (PDT) gives rise to the substantial...

BACKGROUND Dermatophytes are filamentous keratinophilic fungi. Trichophyton rubrum is a prevalent infectious agent in tineas and other skin diseases. Drug therapy is considered to be limited in the treatment of such infections, mainly due to low accessibility of the drug to the tissue attacked and development of antifungal resistance in these microorganisms. In this context, Photodynamic Therap...
