Immunomodulatory effects of photodynamic therapy for skin cancer: Potential strategies to improve treatment efficacy and tolerability

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a nonscarring treatment modality that is widely used for skin cancers and early squamous precursor lesions. PDT was previously thought to work primarily by killing cancer cells directly (via apoptosis or necrosis). However, more recent work indicates that a significant mechanism for PDT is the stimulation of anti‐cancer ...

Stewardship of Molecular Diagnostics in Transplant Viral Infections

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transplant environment requires special considerations when testing for viral infections as immunosuppression results in atypical infection profiles. Microbes otherwise considered commensals or causing mild disease can lead to severe infections in transplant environments. Therefore, guidelines tend to recommend broader microbial testing in

Acyclovir‐Resistant Herpes Simplex Virus in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant: A Case Series

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This retrospective case series of acyclovir‐resistant HSV infection in pediatric patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT discusses the clinical course, associated complications, and treatment, including side effects. We propose the first algorithm for investigating and managing acyclovir‐resistant HSV infections in pediatric HSCT recipients, highlighting ...
