Generally, excessive excitation absorbed by the pigments is considered the cause of PSII photodamage. Previous studies of action spectra of PSII photodamage concluded that shorter wavelengths induce more damage, supporting the hypothesis of the existence

The retina represents a paradox, in that, while light and oxygen are essential for vision, these conditions also favour the formation of reactive oxygen species leading to photochemical damage to the retina. Such light damage seems to be multi-factorial and is dependent on the photoreactivity of a variety of chromophores (e.g., vitamin A metabolites ...

Modulation of 5-Aminolevulinic acid mediated photodynamic therapy induced cell death in a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line [PDF]
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a cancer treatment involving the administration of a photosensitising drug which selectively accumulates in tumor tissue, followed by irradiation with appropriate wavelength light.

Interventions for photodamaged skin [PDF]
Photodamage describes skin changes such as fine and coarse wrinkles, roughness, freckles and pigmentation changes that occur as a result of prolonged exposure to the sun. Many treatments are available to reverse the damage, but it is unclear which work and at what cost in terms of unwanted side effects.To assess the effects of topically applied ...

IntroductionLaser-induced photodamage is a robust method for investigating retinal pathologies in small animals. However, aiming of the photocoagulation laser is often limited by manual alignment and lacks real-time feedback on lesion location and ...

Pirfenidone Protects from UVB-Induced Photodamage in Hairless Mice
Background: Ultraviolet radiation (UV) is the main environmental factor that causes histological degenerative changes of the skin giving rise to a chronic process called photodamage.

Fatty-acid uptake in prostate cancer cells using dynamic microfluidic raman technology [PDF]
It is known that intake of dietary fatty acid (FA) is strongly correlated with prostate cancer progression but is highly dependent on the type of FAs. High levels of palmitic acid (PA) or arachidonic acid (AA) can stimulate the progression of cancer.
