Photosensitivity to Exogenous Agents

Journal of Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2004
Objective: To better understand cutaneous photosensitivity reactions, a review of its etiologic factors, clinical characteristics, pathogenesis, and treatment modalities was undertaken. Methods: Articles discussing the above aspects of phototoxic and photoallergic reactions were used to demonstrate what is currently known about photoinduced reactions ...

Biodistribution of photosensitizing agents

International Journal of Biochemistry, 1993
1. The features of neoplasia which predict for drug responsiveness are rapid growth and/or inefficient repair of damage, especially to DNA. 2. PDT has the advantage of yielding responses regardless of the growth fraction of a tumor, and repair appears to play only a minor role. 3. While an entirely different spectrum of tumors can be targeted with PDT,

Photosensitivity Associated with Antibacterial Agents

Drug Safety, 1993
Skin reactions following the interaction of photoactive drugs and ultraviolet or visible radiation are usually rapidly reversible after drug cessation. Within the antibacterial group, photosensitivity to sulphonamides, nalidixic acid, fluoroquinolones and tetracycline members have all been reported.

Photosensitization by selected anticancer agents

Biophysical Chemistry, 1990
Novel anticancer anthrapyrazoles and anthracenediones are available as alternatives to the cardiotoxic clinical agents, doxorubicin and daunorubicin. Certain representatives of these new classes of compounds possess photosensitizing properties.

Photosensitizing Therapeutic Agents

JAMA, 1960
The antibacterial sulfonamides, the related group of hypoglycemic agents, the group of chlorothiazide diuretics, and the phenothiazine group of central sympathetic suppressants may induce cutaneous reactions when the patient is exposed to sunlight. There are numerous reports that demethylated chlortetracycline may act as a photosensitizing agent, and a

PHOTOSENSITIZING AGENTS

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1939
My purpose in this paper is to report two cases of pigmentation—one resulting from a photosensitizing dye and the other from a toilet water—and to discuss briefly the parenteral and ingested photosensitizing substances as well as the topical photosensitizers.

Photodynamic Therapy with a New Photosensitizing Agent

Photomedicine and Laser Surgery, 2007
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the cytotoxicity of octal-bromide zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPcBr 8 ) before and after irradiation with a low-power laser (AsGaAl) and analyze the effects of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on the nucleus of L929 cells.
