Photodynamic therapy in dermatology: basic principles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A terapia fotodinâmica envolve a administração de uma droga fotossensibilizante e sua ativação subsequente pela luz de comprimento de onda correspondente ao espectro de absorção do fotossensibilizador. Atualmente, a terapia fotodinâmica tópica é aprovada

NIR‐II Imaging‐Guided Photothermal Activation of a TRPV4‐Targeted Nanoplatform Delivering Cycloastragenol to Promote Microglia Reprogramming and α‐Synuclein Clearance in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Current therapies for Parkinson's disease (PD) fail to concurrently address α‐synuclein (α‐syn) aggregation and microglia‐mediated neuroinflammation. Herein, we engineer a near‐infrared‐II (NIR‐II) phototheranostic nanoplatform, CAG/FD1080@MM‐aTRPV4, for synergistic regulation of microglial function and real‐time monitoring of PD pathology. We

Reconstructing cerebral lymphatic clearance: an emerging target in the Alzheimer's disease therapeutic pipeline

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Neurotoxic protein accumulation is widely recognized as a key feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and increasing evidence indicates that impaired brain clearance associated with dysfunction of the meningeal lymphatic and glymphatic may contribute to this process.

Introduction of 5-aminolevulinic acid as a theranostics agent in dentistry

open access: yesPhotodiagnosis and Photodynamic Therapy, 2019
The aim of this paper is to study the theranostic potential of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA)in dentistry.Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) and fluorescence spectroscopy of Streptococcus sanguis, and laser induced fluorescence (LIF) of several decayed teeth were performed using 5-ALA.In the absence of 5-ALA, 15 min illumination of the bacteria by the ...

Acute Intermittent Porphyria Triggered by COVID‐19 Mimicking Guillain–Barré Syndrome: A Diagnostic Challenge

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is a rare heme biosynthesis disorder in which the accumulation of neurotoxic porphyrin precursors precipitates neurovisceral attacks. Intercurrent infections, including coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), may trigger or exacerbate AIP and complicate diagnosis, as clinical manifestations can resemble those of

Mitochondrial Localization of ABC Transporter ABCG2 and Its Function in 5-Aminolevulinic Acid-Mediated Protoporphyrin IX Accumulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Accumulation of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) in malignant cells is the basis of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-mediated photodynamic therapy. We studied the expression of proteins that possibly affect ALA-mediated PpIX accumulation, namely oligopeptide ...

Chemical Characterization of Toxic Elements in Plastic Utensils: Key Insights and Health Impacts

open access: yesCLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 5, May 2026.
Toxic elements in plastic utensils are assessed using portable X‐ray fluorescence and specific migration tests with water and 3% acetic acid as food simulants. Cadmium, lead, arsenic, and mercury are detected in the utensils, and migration results show exceedances of specific migration limits, particularly for lead, mercury, and cadmium. These findings
