Studies on minimum erythema doses, histological investigations and quantitative determination of DNA repair synthesis of epidermal cells revealed that a tan induced by the oral administration of 8-methoxy-psoralen (8-MOP) and subsequent UVA irradiation gives protection from the erythemogenic effects
Photochemotherapy with psoralen and long-wave ultraviolet light, so-called PUVA-treatment, is currently being evaluated in many dermatologic departments. Side effects such as nausea, pruritus and erythema are well known. Recently the development of acneiform eruptions was reported in a British
The addition of modest amounts of long ultraviolet light (UV-A) to 1/2 minimal erythema dose (MED) of sunburning irradiation (UV-B) produced erythema visible at 24 hr, the prototype of the photoaugmentation phenomenon. The results were the same whether UV-A was given before or after UV-B.
Long-term psoralen plus ultraviolet A radiation (PUVA) therapy is associated with an increased risk of squamous cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma. Genistein (4',5,7-trihydroxyisoflavone), a major isoflavone in soybeans and a specific inhibitor of protein tyrosine kinase, has been shown to
