Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) is a widely adopted form of phototherapy used to treat many chronic conditions that effect the population at large. The exact physiological mechanisms of PBMT remain unsolved; however, the prevailing theory centres on changes in mitochondrial function. There are many irradiation parameters to consider when investigating PBMT, one of which is the state of polarization. There is some evidence to show that polarization of red and near‐infrared light may promote different and/or increased biological activity when compared to otherwise identical non‐polarized light. These enhanced cellular effects may also be present when the polarized light is applied linear to the tissue direction. Herein, we synthesize the current experimental and clinical evidence pertaining to polarized photobiomodulation therapy; ultimately, to better inform future research into this area of phototherapy.  相似文献

Autologous cell-based therapy for bone regeneration might be impaired by diabetes mellitus (DM) due to the negative effects on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) differentiation. Strategies to recover their osteogenic potential could optimize the results. We aimed to evaluate the effect of photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy on osteoblast differentiation of rats with induced DM. Bone marrow MSCs of healthy and diabetic rats were isolated and differentiated into osteoblasts (OB and dOB, respectively). dOB were treated with PBM therapy every 72 hour (660 nm; 0.14 J; 20 mW; 0.714 W/cm2, and 5 J/cm2). Cell morphology, viability, gene and protein expression of osteoblastic markers, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and the mineralized matrix production of dOB-PBM were compared to dOB. PBM therapy improved viability of dOB, increased the gene and protein expression of bone markers, the ALP activity and the mineralized matrix production. PBM therapy represents an innovative therapeutic approach to optimize the treatment of bone defects in diabetic patients.  相似文献

The analgesic properties of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) have been raising increasing interest in the clinical community due to the positive effects observed on patients, nevertheless the mechanistic basis of its action on peripheral sensory neurons remains still elusive. In this study, the effect of near-infrared (NIR) PBMT at 800 and 970 nm of wavelength was investigated on the 50B11 immortalized nociceptive sensory neuronal cell line by evaluating capsaicin-induced calcium flow and different markers correlated to mitochondria, that is, ATP, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). Calcium peak stimulated by capsaicin, the ligand of TRPV1 channel, was decreased in neurons pre-irradiated with the combination of the two wavelengths. Furthermore, delivering the 800 and 970 nm separately an increment of ATP, as well as MMP hyperpolarization were detected; notably, the 800 nm wavelength also increased ROS and O2 levels. Our findings, obtained on an in vitro model of nociception, show the positive effect of PBMT on two potential photo-targets of NIR light, namely the TRPV1 channel and the mitochondria.  相似文献

Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) in the infrared spectrum exerts positive effects on glucose metabolism, but the use of PBMT at the red spectrum has not been assessed. Male Swiss albino mice were divided into low‐fat control and high‐fat diet (HFD) for 12 weeks and were treated with red (630 nm) PBMT or no treatment (Sham) during weeks 9 to 12. PBMT was delivered at 31.19 J/cm2, 60 J total dose per day for 20 days. In HFD‐fed mice, PBMT improved glucose tolerance, insulin resistance and fasting hyperinsulinemia. PBMT also reduced adiposity and inflammatory infiltrate in adipose tissue. Phosphorylation of Akt in epididymal adipose tissue and rectus femoralis muscle was improved by PBMT. In epididymal fat PBMT reversed the reduced phosphorylation of AS160 and the reduced Glut4 content. In addition, PBMT reversed the alterations caused by HFD in rectus femoralis muscle on proteins involved in mitochondrial dynamics and β‐oxidation. In conclusion, PBMT at red spectrum improved insulin resistance and glucose metabolism in HFD‐fed mice.   相似文献

The study of any intervention able to counteract SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is considerably envisaged. It was previously shown, in in vitro models of infections, that the LED blue light is able to decrease the viral load of HSV-1 and ZIKV. In our study, LED photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) at blue wavelengths (450, 454 and 470 nm) was tested in an in vitro model of SARS-CoV-2 infection, employing three experimental settings: SARS-CoV-2 was irradiated and then transferred to cells; already infected cells were irradiated; cells were irradiated prior to infection. A decrement of the viral load was observed when previously infected cells were irradiated with all three tested wavelengths and relevant effects were registered especially at 48 hours post-infection, possibly suggesting that the blue light could interfere with the intracellular viral replication machinery. Our in vitro findings could represent the starting point for translational applications of PBMT as a supportive approach to fight SARS-CoV-2.  相似文献

A wide range of biomaterials and tissue‐engineered scaffolds are being investigated to support and stimulate bone healing in animal models. Using phantoms and rat cadavers, we investigated the feasibility of using spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS) to monitor changes in collagen concentration at levels similar to those expected to occur in vivo during bone regeneration (0‐0.84 g/cm3). A partial least squares (PLS) regression model was developed to quantify collagen concentration in plugs consisting of mixtures or collagen and hydroxyapatite (predictive power of ±0.16 g/cm3). The PLS model was then applied on SORS spectra acquired from rat cadavers after implanting the collagen: hydroxyapatite plugs in drilled skull defects. The PLS model successfully predicting the profile of collagen concentration, but with an increased predictive error of ±0.30 g/cm3. These results demonstrate the potential of SORS to quantify collagen concentrations, in the range relevant to those occurring during new bone formation.  相似文献

We investigated the effects of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) and conditioned medium (CM) of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSC) individually and/or in combination on the stereological parameters and the expression of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α), and stromal cell–derived factor-1α (SDF-1α) in a wound model infected with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in diabetic rats. CM was provided by culturing hBM-MSCs. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) was induced in 72 rats, divided into four groups, harboring 18 rats each: group 1 served as a control group, group 2 received PBMT, group 3 received CM, and group 4 received CM + PBMT. On days 4, 7, and 15, six animals from each group were euthanized and the skin samples were separated for stereology examination and gene expression analysis by real-time polymerase chain reaction. In the CM + PBMT, CM, and PBMT groups, significant decreases were induced in the number of neutrophils (1460 ± 93, 1854 ± 138, 1719 ± 248) and macrophages (539 ± 69, 804 ± 63, 912 ± 41), and significant increases in the number of fibroblasts (1073 ± 116, 836 ± 75, 912 ± 41) and angiogenesis (15 230 ± 516, 13 318 ± 1116, 14 041 ± 867), compared with those of the control group (2690 ± 371, 1139 ± 145, 566 ± 90, 12 585 ± 1219). Interestingly, the findings of the stereological examination in the CM + PBMT group were statistically more significant than those in the other groups. In the PBMT group, in most cases, the expression of bFGF, HIF-1α, and SDF-1α, on day 4 (27.7 ± 0.14, 28.8 ± 0.52, 27.5 ± 0.54) and day 7 (26.8 ± 1.4, 29.6 ± 1.4, 28.3 ± 1.2) were more significant than those in the control (day 4, 19.3 ± 0.42, 25.5 ± 0.08, 22.6 ± 0.04; day 7, 22.3 ± 0.22, 28.3 ± 0.59, 24.3 ± 0.19) and other treatment groups. The application of PBMT + CM induced anti-inflammatory and angiogenic activities, and hastened wound healing process in a T1 DM model of MRSA infected wound.  相似文献

The possibilities of using gene therapy for bone regeneration have been extensively investigated. Improvements in the design of new transfection agents, combining vectors and delivery/release systems to diminish cytotoxicity and increase transfection efficiencies have led to several successful in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo strategies. These include growth factor or short interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) delivery, or even enzyme replacement therapies, and have led to increased osteogenic differentiation and bone formation in vivo. These results provide optimism to consider use in humans with some of these gene-delivery strategies in the near future.  相似文献

Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) employing laser light has been emerging as a safe strategy to challenge viruses. In this study the effect of blue and near-infrared (NIR) laser light was assessed in an in vitro model of SARS-CoV-2 infection. PBMT at blue wavelength inhibited viral amplification when the virus was directly irradiated and then transferred to cell culture and when cells already infected were treated. The NIR wavelength resulted less efficacious showing a minor effect on the reduction of the viral load. The cells receiving the irradiated virus or directly irradiated rescued their viability to level comparable to not treated cells. Virion integrity and antigenicity were preserved after blue and NIR irradiation, suggesting that the PBMT antiviral effect was not correlated to viral lipidic envelope disruption. Our results suggested that PBMT can be considered a valid strategy to counteract SARS-CoV-2 infection, at least in vitro.  相似文献

Laser scalpels used in medical surgery concentrate light energy, heating the tissues. Recently, we reported thermoluminescence emission from laser-treated soft tissues. Here we investigated the thermo-optical effects caused by a laser operating at 808 nm on animal bones (beef ribs) through luminescence and fluorescence imaging, thermal imaging and scanning electron microscopy. Laser-induced artificial lesions emitted luminescence peaking around 650 nm, with a half-life of almost 1 hour. As concerns fluorescence, 24 hours after laser treatment we observed an increase of the emission and a shift from 500 (untreated) to 580 nm (treated). Recrystallization observed by SEM indicates that the temperature in the artificial lesions is over 600°C. We can conclude that laser treatment induces specific luminescent and fluorescent emissions due to heating of the bone and modification of its components. Monitoring these emissions could help prevent tissue overheating and its potential damages during laser-assisted medical procedures.  相似文献

This review summarizes recent efforts to create vascularized bone tissue in vitro and in vivo through the use of cell-based therapy approaches. The treatment of large and recalcitrant bone wounds is a serious clinical problem, and in the United States approximately 10% of all fractures are complicated by delayed union or non-union. Treatment approaches with the use of growth factor and gene delivery have shown some promise, but results are variable and clinical complications have arisen. Cell-based therapies offer the potential to recapitulate key components of the bone-healing cascade, which involves concomitant regeneration of vasculature and new bone tissue. For this reason, osteogenic and vasculogenic cell types have been combined in co-cultures to capitalize on the function of each cell type and to promote heterotypic interactions. Experiments in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional systems have provided insight into the mechanisms by which osteogenic and vasculogenic cells interact to form vascularized bone, and these approaches have been translated to ectopic and orthotopic models in small-animal studies. The knowledge generated by these studies will inform and facilitate the next generation of pre-clinical studies, which are needed to move cell-based orthopaedic repair strategies into the clinic. The science and application of cytotherapy for repair of large and ischemic bone defects is developing rapidly and promises to provide new treatment methods for these challenging clinical problems.  相似文献

Deletion of TGFβ inducible early gene-1 (TIEG) in mice results in an osteopenic phenotype that exists only in female animals. Molecular analyses on female TIEG knockout (KO) mouse bones identified increased expression of sclerostin, an effect that was confirmed at the protein level in serum. Sclerostin antibody (Scl-Ab) therapy has been shown to elicit bone beneficial effects in multiple animal model systems and human clinical trials. For these reasons, we hypothesized that Scl-Ab therapy would reverse the low bone mass phenotype of female TIEG KO mice. In this study, wildtype (WT) and TIEG KO female mice were randomized to either vehicle control (Veh, n = 12/group) or Scl-Ab therapy (10 mg/kg, 1×/wk, s.c.; n = 12/group) and treated for 6 weeks. Following treatment, bone imaging analyses revealed that Scl-Ab therapy significantly increased cancellous and cortical bone in the femur of both WT and TIEG KO mice. Similar effects also occurred in the vertebra of both WT and TIEG KO animals. Additionally, histomorphometric analyses revealed that Scl-Ab therapy resulted in increased osteoblast perimeter/bone perimeter in both WT and TIEG KO animals, with a concomitant increase in P1NP, a serum marker of bone formation. In contrast, osteoclast perimeter/bone perimeter and CTX-1 serum levels were unaffected by Scl-Ab therapy, irrespective of mouse genotype. Overall, our findings demonstrate that Scl-Ab therapy elicits potent bone-forming effects in both WT and TIEG KO mice and effectively increases bone mass in female TIEG KO mice.  相似文献

To effectively treat serious bone defects using bone-regenerative medicine, a small chemical compound that potently induces bone formation must be developed. We previously reported on the osteogenic effect of 4-(4-methoxyphenyl)pyrido[40,30:4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxamide (TH), a helioxanthin-derivative, in vitro. Here, we report on TH’s osteogenic effects ex vivo and in vivo. TH-induced new bone formation in both calvarial and metatarsal organ cultures. A novel monitoring system of osteoblastic differentiation using MC3T3-E1 cells revealed that TH was released from α-TCP bone cement and this release continued for more than one month. Lastly, the implantation of the α-TCP carrier containing TH into defects in mouse skull resulted in increased new bone areas within the defects after 4 weeks. A TH-containing scaffold may help establish a more efficient bone regeneration system.  相似文献

Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease related to a massive accumulation of cholesterol in the artery wall. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) has been reported to possess cardioprotective effects but has no consensus on the underlying mechanisms. Here, we aimed to investigate whether PBMT could ameliorate atherosclerosis and explore the potential molecular mechanisms. The Apolipoprotein E (ApoE)−/− mice were fed with western diet (WD) for 18 weeks and treated with PBMT once a day in the last 10 weeks. Quantification based on Oil red O-stained aortas showed that the average plaque area decreased 8.306 ± 2.012% after PBMT (P < .05). Meanwhile, we observed that high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level in WD + PBMT mice increased from 0.309 ± 0.037 to 0.472 ± 0.038 nmol/L (P < .05) compared with WD mice. The further results suggested that PBMT could promote cholesterol efflux from lipid-loaded primary peritoneal macrophages and inhibit foam cells formation via up-regulating the ATP-binding cassette transporters A1 expression. A contributing mechanism involved in activating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases/protein kinase C zeta/specificity protein 1 signalling cascade. Our study outlines that PBMT has a protective role on atherosclerosis by promoting macrophages cholesterol efflux and provides a new strategy for treating atherosclerosis.  相似文献

Cellular therapies represent a new frontier in the treatment of neurological diseases. Accumulating evidence from preclinical studies of animal models suggests that mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), also known as mesenchymal stem cells, are an effective therapy for neurological diseases. In this study, we established human MSC lines from both cranial bone marrow (cBMMSCs) and iliac crest bone marrow (iBMMSCs) from the same donors and found that cBMMSCs show higher expression of neural crest-associated genes than iBMMSCs. Moreover, as observed in both mRNA and protein assays, neurogenic-induced cells from cBMMSCs expressed significantly higher levels of neural markers, such as NESTIN, SLUG, SOX9, and TWIST, than those from iBMMSCs. Thus, cBMMSCs showed a greater tendency than iBMMSCs to differentiate into neuron-like cells.  相似文献

Background and objective: The aim of the present study was to develop and examine a new non-invasive injectable graft for the repair of alveolar bone clefts using recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) encapsulated within injectable liposomal in situ gel (LIG).

Method: Different liposomal formulations loaded with rhBMP-2 were prepared, and the effects of the preparation methods and lipid content on the efficiency of rhBMP-2 encapsulation within the liposomes were studied. For the preparation of in situ gel, deacetylated gellan gum (DGG) was used, and the in vitro gelation characteristics of the gel were evaluated. In vivo pharmacokinetics and histology were also assessed. Critical size alveolar defects were surgically created in the maxillae of 30 New Zealand rabbits and treated with different injectable formulae, including rhBMP-2 liposomes and in situ gel (rhBMP-2-LIG).

Results: The results indicated that the prepared rhBMP-2-LIG prolonged the release and residence time of BMP-2 within rabbits for more than 7 days. Histomorphometric assessment showed 67% trabecular bone filling of the defects treated using this novel formula.

Conclusion: BMP-2-LIG is a promising delivery device for the repair of alveolar bone defects associated with cleft deformities.  相似文献

Objectives: The increasing levels of bacterial antibiotic resistance have increased the need to evaluate the second‐line treatments for Helicobacter pylori. Bismuth‐based quadruple therapy is recommended as a second‐line treatment, but the optimal duration of this treatment is still debatable. We prospectively analyzed the eradication rate of H. pylori according to the duration of the second‐line bismuth‐based quadruple therapy. Methods: One hundred and ninety‐nine patients who failed at H. pylori eradication were prospectively randomized to receive pantoprazole 40 mg twice daily, metronidazole 500 mg thrice daily, and bismuth subcitrate 300 mg and tetracycline 500 mg four times daily for 7 days (PBMT7) or for 14 days (PBMT14). The post‐treatment H. pylori status was determined by the 13C‐urea breath test. The eradication rates, drug compliance, and side effects of each group were evaluated. Results: The intention‐to‐treat (ITT) eradication rates were 81.6% (95% CI 73.9–89.3%, 80/98) in the PBMT7 arm and 85.1% (95% CI 78.2–92.0%, 86/101) in the PBMT14 arm (p = .028, noninferiority test), while the per‐protocol (PP) eradication rates were 89.6% (95% CI 83.2–96.0%, 78/87) and 96.2% (95% CI 92.0–100.0% 77/80) (p = .015, noninferiority test), respectively. The compliance was 88.8% (87/98) and 79.2% (80/101) in the PBMT7 and PBMT14 groups, respectively. (p = .066) The number of patients having severe side effects was 15.3% (15/98) and 21.8% (22/101) in the PBMT7 and PBMT14 groups, respectively, which was similar between both groups. (p = .243). Conclusions: Although PBMT7 was not inferior to PBMT14 statistically, PBMT could not demonstrate enough ITT/PP eradication rate. Therefore, it could be better to extend the duration of treatment for 2 weeks for the second‐line treatment of H. pylori in Korea.  相似文献
