Efficacy of photodynamic therapy for basal cell carcinoma using photosensitizers of different classes
Abstract:
The paper presented results of photodynamic therapy for 139 patients with basal cell carcinoma. We conducted a study of the efficacy and safety of four methods of photodynamic therapy. There were used the following photosensitizers: photohem, photosens, photolon and photodithazine. Photodynamic therapy using photosensitizers of chlorine series (photolon and photoditazin) provides a better long-term results improving disease-free 3-year survival rate to 90.4% and 92.3%, respectively compared to 54.7% and 71.1% in groups, in which treatment was restricted by photohem and photosens.

Antibody Structure and Classes
The basic structure of an antibody consists of four protein chains: two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains. These chains are held together by disulfide bonds and other non-covalent interactions, forming a Y-shaped structure.
