In Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), neoplastic T-cells feed from chronic inflammation. These cells are infiltrated in the skin generating lesions of progressive severity. Lesional skin is also populated by non-malignant T-cells and other immune cells that may play an important role in the development of this disease. This is suggested by the fact that a treatment regime like psolaren + UVA (PUVA) in parallel to induce clinical improvement also trigger immune tolerance and apoptosis. Nevertheless, the role of the immunomodulatory effects of photo(chemo)therapy remains elusive(...)
