Actinic prurigo is a rare pruritic photodermatosis. We report the use of Polypodium leucotomos extract in an 11-year-old female patient with actinic prurigo, resulting in a significant attenuation of her disease without development of adverse effects to date. Polypodium leucotomos exerts a pleiotropic immunomodulatory and antioxidant effect by shifting the balance from pro- to an antiinflammatory cytokine environment. This counteracts the effects of UV-induced cellular damage characteristic of photodermatoses.
光化性痒疹是一种罕见的瘙痒性光皮病。我们报告了一例白首乌提取物在 11 岁女性光化性痒疹患者中的应用,结果表明,在没有出现不良反应的情况下,她的疾病显著减轻。白首乌通过将平衡从促炎细胞因子环境转移到抗炎细胞因子环境,发挥多效性免疫调节和抗氧化作用。这可以抵抗光皮病特有的 UV 诱导的细胞损伤。
