Photodynamic Diagnosis and Treatment for Atherosclerosis by an Endoscopic Approach [PDF]

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Endoscopy, 1999
The photosensitizer, mono‐L‐aspartyl chlorin e6 (NPe6), specifically accumulates in the atheromatous plaque. We detected the fluorescence spectra of NPe6 emitted from atheromatous plaques on the descending thoracic aorta by an angioscopic approach using the animal model of atherosclerosis.

Combined 5‐aminolevulinic acid and ferric ammonium citrate treatment promotes hair follicle growth by activating dermal papilla cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
5‐Aminolevulinic acid combined with ferric ammonium citrate (5‐ALA/FAC) stimulates dermal papilla cell activity and promotes hair follicle growth. The treatment enhances ERK and AKT signaling, increases hair‐inductive gene expression, and restores dermal papilla function suppressed by dihydrotestosterone and oxidative stress, resulting in enhanced hair
