Low dose endoluminal photodynamic therapy improves murine T cell-mediated colitis

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Tanja Gabrecht, François André Borle, Dominique Velin

Background and study aims: Low dose photodynamic therapy (LDPDT) may modify the mucosal immune response and may thus provide a therapy for Crohn's disease. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of this technique in a murine T cell-mediated colitis model. ...

Assessment of a sheep animal model to optimize photodynamic therapy with Foscan in the esophague

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Matthieu Philippe Emmanuel Zellweger, François André Borle

Precursor lesions of oesophagus adenocarcinoma constitute a clinical dilemma. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an effective treatment for this indication, but it is difficult to optimise without an appropriate animal model. For this reason, we assessed the sh ...

Design of an endoscopic optical reference to be used for autofluorescence bronchoscopy with a commercially available diagnostic autofluorescence endoscopy (DAFE) system

Georges Wagnières, Tanja Gabrecht, Blaise Lovisa, François André Borle

We present the design of a sterilizable optical reference to characterize and quantify the inter-patient variations in tissue autofluorescence during autofluorescence bronchoscopy with Richard Wolf's diagnostic autofluorescence endoscopy (DAFE) system. The ...

Design of a light delivery system for the photodynamic treatment of the Crohn's disease

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Tanja Gabrecht, François André Borle

Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disease originating from an overwhelming response of the mucosal immune system. Low dose photodynamic therapy (PDT) may modify the mucosal immune response and thus serve as a therapy for Crohn's disease. Most patien ...
