متن کاملUltraviolet-irradiated monocytes efficiently inhibit the intracellular replication of Mycobacterium avium intracellulare.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of ultraviolet (UV) radiation on the antimicrobial activities of monocytes for the intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium avium intracellulare (MAI). UV radiation augmented monocyte antimicrobial activity for MAI in a dose-dependent fashion. UVB doses of greater than or equal to 25 J/m2 resulted in a 50-100-fold reduction in MAI growth 7 d afte...
متن کاملLow Dose Psoralen Plus Ultraviolet A (PUVA) Is an Effective and Safe Method for the Treatment of Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease
Background: Chronic graft versus host disease (ch.GVHD) is the most frequent late complication after allogenic stem-cell transplantation. Systemic immunosuppressive agents are usually required to control the disease. Psoralen plus UVA (PUVA) has been used for the treatment of ch.GVHD with variable beneficial effects. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of a r...
