Photodynamic therapy for photochemists.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an evolving technique for localized control of diseased tissue with light after prior administration of a photosensitizing agent and in the presence of oxygen. The biological effect is quite different from surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. With no temperature change during treatment, connective tissues like collagen are largely unaffected, so maintaining the ...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a comparatively novel therapeutic method involving a safe light source and a light-sensitive substance, termed as photosensitizers (PSs), such as methylene blue (MB), toluidine blue (TBO), sulfonated aluminum phthalocyanine, chlorine derivatives, nontoxic indocyanine green (ICG), and curcumin (CUR). (1) The combination of a nontoxic PS with low-intensity visible li...
متن کاملPhotosensitization of coronene–purine hybrids for photodynamic therapy
Photosensitization properties of coronene-purine (Cor-P) hybrids for photodynamic therapy (PDT) have been investigated in this work. Eight hybrid Cor-P models have been designed by the additional of adenine (A) and guanine (G) nucleobase to Cor species. The evaluated absorption and emission energies indicated that the singular models are not good at all for PDT process whereas their hybrid mode...

متن کامل[Photodynamic therapy for actinic cheilitis].
Actinic cheilitis is a subtype of actinic keratosis that mainly affects the lower lip and has a higher risk of malignant transformation. Its location on the labial mucosa influences the therapeutic approach. Vermilionectomy requires local or general anesthetic and is associated with a risk of an unsightly scar, and the treatment with 5-fluorouracil or imiquimod lasts for several weeks and the i...
