Photo(chemo)therapy is widely used to treat psoriasis, the pathogenesis of which might be caused by an imbalance of Th17 cells/regulatory T cells (Treg). In the present study, we evaluated the effects of photo(chemo)therapy on the Th17/Treg balance and Treg function.

Environmental and molecular mutagenesis, 31(2), 105-112 (1998-04-17)
Photochemotherapy employing 8-methoxypsoralen and ultraviolet radiation (PUVA) is widely used in the treatment of psoriasis. The photoactivation of psoralens in skin cells leads to DNA photoadduct formation which may be responsible for the efficacy of PUVA. Subsequent mutations may lead
