Background and Objective: Some oral bacteria are susceptible to killing by red light after their sensitization with toluidine blue 0 (TBO). The photochemotherapy of periodontal disease in vivo would require a therapeutic window where bacteria could be killed without adjacent normal tissue damage. #
Tissue expansion, a technique to enlarge the skin surface area with an expandable balloon, has been widely used in reconstructive surgery. Although the effect of tissue expansion on in vivo skin physiology and histology has been well documented, it remains unclear whether keratinocytes or other cell
PDT has been reported to induce cancer cell expression of cytokines, such as IL-6 and TNF-alpha, but it has been unclear whether cytokine expression by cancer cells is directly related to the antitumor effect of PDT. We treated Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cells with a new photosensitizer, mono-L-aspa
The effects of low frequency pulsed electrical current on epidermal repair in vitro were examined. Chargebalanced current stimuli proposed for chronic wound treatment were tested on skin keratinocytes cultured at an air-liquid interface on dead human dermis. Results imply that the balance between pr
