Description	The cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a disease characterised by cutaneous infiltrates of malignant, clonally expanded T-cells. Because individual genetic determination of angiogenetic and antioxidant properties of blood vessels could be partly responsible for phototherapy in CTCL patients, three polymorphisms in angiotensin converting enzyme and endothelin-1 genes were determined.
