Background and Objective: 5-Aminolevulinic acid-induced protoporphyrin IX is a promising photosensitizer that could enhance the spectroscopic contrast between normal and diseased oral tissues. Knowledge of the pharmacokinetics and effects on tissue type are important for diagnostic and therapeutic p

Background and Objectives: In vitro studies indicated that compared to postmenopausal women, premenopausal women had increased aminolevulinic acid induced protoporphyrin IX (ALA-induced PpIX) fluorescence expression in the endometrium. The aim of this study was to evaluate menstrual cycle dependency
## Abstract ## Background and objectives This study investigates whether lowβlevel light treatment (LLLT) can enhance the expression of peripheralβtype mitochondrial benzodiazepine receptors (PBRs) on gliomaβderived tumor cells, and by doing so promote the synthesis of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) and
The study of biological systems in their real environmental conditions is crucial to decipher the true image of structures and processes underlying their functionality. In this regard, development of non-invasive optical techniques that do not require labelling, such as the investigation of tissue e
Receptor binding studies with the conventional method require the use of radioactively labelled ligands and include several washing steps. In certain cases, the halflife of the receptor-ligand complex is often shorter or similar to the time required for separation. Interactions between certain ligan
