“…By monitoring the superficial fluorescence in every patient receiving PDT, we confirmed the induction and bleaching of PpIX in a standardized way (data not shown), as found in other studies . The mechanism of action of PDT in GELP and oral lichen planus is unknown but is thought to be linked to an effect on T lymphocytes …”

“…18,29 The mechanism of action of PDT in GELP and oral lichen planus is unknown but is thought to be linked to an effect on T lymphocytes. 26 We have reported the results using a conventional superiority trial design, although the study originally was designed as a noninferiority trial. We were not able to show noninferiority (data not shown).…”

“…Use of 5ALA in gynecologic cases now covers a broad spectrum of procedures (5456) since PpIX was shown to accumulate in endometrial cancer cells by Wyss-Desserich and colleagues at non-toxic doses in 1996 (57). In this study, fluorescence was observed in vitro with best results found at 1 mg/ml incubated for 24 h and excited at 488 nm.…”

“…Topical absorption of 5ALA is effective in patients with cervical neoplasia (CIN) II and III, as well as with lichen planus (55, 56). A cervical cap with 2–4 mL of 200 mg/ml 5ALA placed for 1.5 h demonstrates that dysplastic cervical tissue consistently has greater fluorescence than normal tissue.…”
