Beta-carotene therapy for erythropoietic protoporphyria and other photosensitivity diseases.

M M Mathews-Roth.   

Abstract

This paper describes the development of the use of carotenoid pigments in the treatment of light-sensitive skin diseases. It also discusses the animal and human studies involved in determining whether carotenoids have any anti-cancer activity. The possible mechanisms of carotenoid photoprotective and anti-cancer actions are briefly discussed.
