Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Vitamin D(Vit D) is a pro-differentiation agent that enhances the accumulation of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) after MAL(methyl-aminolevulinate) incubation in actinic keratosis and may have significant benefit for the treatment of actinic keratosis by ablative fractional laser-primed photodynamic therapy (AFL-PDT).
