<p>A method of potentiating the phototoxicity of photodynamic therapy by co-administering a photosensitizing agent with a photodynamic potentiator from the group consisting of uridioxicolic acid analogs and conjugates thereof having the phototoxicity potentiating effect and allowing for retention of the co-administered agent and acid in the target tissue. The target tissue is then irradiated. A tool for potentiating apoptosis consists of a photosensitizing agent and a non-toxic photodynamic potentiator. Further, a method of potentiating drug induced apoptosis is provided by administering a photosensitizing agent and then decreasing the threshold of responsiveness of a target tissue to a photokilling effect of the photosensitizing agent.</p> |
