The growing popularity of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) has helped reshape the mental health scene in the city of Buenos Aires, historically the stronghold of psychoanalysis. In the early 1980s, CBT was infrequently ...
Role of non-statin lipid-lowering therapy in coronary atherosclerosis regression: A meta-analysis and meta-regression
(BioMed Central, 2020-05)
Background: Several studies have investigated the association between non-statin lipid-lowering therapy and regression of atherosclerosis. However, these studies were mostly small and their results were not always robust. ...
Scavengers protection of cells against ALA-based photodynamic therapy-induced damage
(Springer London Ltd, 2002-10)
The exogenously stimulated formation of intracellularly generated protoporphyrin IX, a precursor of haem, is becoming one of the fastest developing areas in the field of photodynamic therapy (PDT). We tested the action of ...
The role of cytoskeleton and adhesion proteins in the resistance to photodynamic therapy: possible therapeutic interventions
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-04)
It is known that Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) induces changes in the cytoskeleton, the cell shape, and the adhesion properties of tumour cells. In addition, these targets have also been demonstrated to be involved in the ...
Bacterial viability after antimicrobial photodynamic therapy with curcumin on multiresistant Staphylococcus aureus
(Future Medicine, 2019-06)
Staphylococcus aureus are multiresistant pathogens that causes superficial and systemic infections. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (APDT) is an alternative in the treatment of diseases caused by these bacteria. Aim: ...
Photodynamic therapy of glioblastoma cells using doped conjugated polymer nanoparticles: An in vitro comparative study based on redox status
(Elsevier Science SA, 2020-11)
Due to their superb light absorption and photostability conjugated polymer nanoparticles are promising photosensitizers (PS) for their use in Photodynamic therapy (PDT). Recently, we developed metallated porphyrin-doped ...
Mucoadhesive and responsive nanogels as carriers for sustainable delivery of timolol for glaucoma therapy
(Elsevier Science, 2021-01)
Topical administration to the eye for the treatment of glaucoma is a convenient route because it increases the patient comfort. Timolol can efficiently diminish the intraocular pressure (IOP) of the eye; however the topical ...
Recapitulation of Hypoxic Tumor–stroma Microenvironment to Study Photodynamic Therapy Implications
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-07)
Tumor microenvironment (TME) is a dynamic ecosystem where fibroblasts are recruited in order to provide a niche to support growth and, in some extent, to promote therapeutic resistance. However, the role of fibroblasts in ...
Controlling protein interactions in blood for effective liver immunosuppressive therapy by silica nanocapsules
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-01)
Immunosuppression with glucocorticoids is a common treatment for autoimmune liver diseases and after liver transplant, which is however associated with severe side-effects. Targeted delivery of glucocorticoids to inflammatory ...
Heat shock proteins in the context of photodynamic therapy: Autophagy, apoptosis and immunogenic cell death
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-07)
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an anti-tumor treatment administered for the elimination of early-stage malignancies and the palliation of symptoms in patients with late-stage tumors, which involves the activation of a ...
