Background/objectives: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is widely utilized in dermatology for the treatment of various skin conditions. Despite its effectiveness, the exact biomolecular changes underlying therapeutic outcomes remain only partially understood. This review, through a transversal approach, aims to provide an in-depth exploration of molecular biomarkers involved in PDT, evaluate its underlying mechanisms, and examine how these insights can contribute to enhanced treatment protocols and personalized therapy approaches.

Article Synopsis
  • Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) harms human skin by causing DNA damage, increasing oxidative stress, and raising cancer risks.
  • Traditional sun protection methods mainly use filters that either absorb or scatter UV radiation but do not repair cellular damage already done.
  • The review explores innovative "active photoprotection" strategies that involve DNA-repair enzymes and antioxidants, highlighting recent scientific advancements and clinical trial results for these protective approaches.
