In vitro effects of different 8-methoxypsoralen treatment protocols for extracorporeal photopheresis on mononuclear cells
Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is an important second-line therapy for graft- versus -host disease. A central therapeutic mechanism is the induction of immune tolerance through apoptosis in patient’s leukocytes, caused by ex vivo incubation with 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) and subsequent UVA irrad...
