immunomodulatory photodynamic therapy(English)

• utilizes mainly apoptotic and sublethal doses. Induction of high levels of oxidative stress results in necrotic cell death, while lower-intensity oxidative stress initiates apoptosis. Sublethal doses may result in the modification of cell surface receptor expression levels and cytokine release. This therapy uses lower doses of both photosensitizer and light, and the light is delivered to a larger area of the body or to the whole body
