Molecular effects of topical photodynamic therapy in healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma

Molecular effects of topical photodynamic therapy in healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma

Topical photodynamic therapy (PDT) elicits a therapeutic response in both non melanoma skin cancer and immune-mediated skin disorders. Production of reactive oxygen species may result in direct cell death; however PDT-induced inflammatory and immune responses may also contribute to the therapeutic e...
