methoxsalen and Necrosis

methoxsalen has been researched along with Necrosis in 7 studies

Methoxsalen: A naturally occurring furocoumarin compound found in several species of plants, including Psoralea corylifolia. It is a photoactive substance that forms DNA ADDUCTS in the presence of ultraviolet A irradiation.
methoxsalen : A member of the class of psoralens that is 7H-furo[3,2-g]chromen-7-one in which the 9 position is substituted by a methoxy group. It is a constituent of the fruits of Ammi majus. Like other psoralens, trioxsalen causes photosensitization of the skin. It is administered topically or orally in conjunction with UV-A for phototherapy treatment of vitiligo and severe psoriasis.

Necrosis: The death of cells in an organ or tissue due to disease, injury or failure of the blood supply.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Acitretin is currently used alone or combined with PUVA (psoralen + UVA) or with narrow-band ultraviolet B (NBUVB), to treat moderate and severe psoriasis."3.79Cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of acitretin, alone or in combination with psoralen-ultraviolet A or narrow-band ultraviolet B-therapy in psoriatic patients. ( Bronze-da-Rocha, E; Custódio, JB; Fernandes, JC; Figueiredo, A; Moreiras, A; Oliveira, H; Rocha-Pereira, P; Santos-Silva, A; Silva, FS, 2013)
"The effect of erythemic UV irradiation on the phototoxic reactions caused by topical methoxsalen + UVA exposure was studied on normal skin, normal-looking skin of vitiligo patients, and vitiliginous skin."3.66Photoepicutaneous testing. UV-induced protection against photoxic reactions in normal and vitiliginous skin: a clinical and histological study. ( Niemi, KM; Suhonen, R, 1978)
"Post-treatment with methoxsalen must be given early and is only partially effective in mice."1.27The drug methoxsalen, a suicide substrate for cytochrome P-450, decreases the metabolic activation, and prevents the hepatotoxicity, of carbon tetrachloride in mice.
