Photodynamic therapy in the treatment of microbial infections: Basic principles and perspective applicationsLasers in Surgery and Medicine - Tập 38 Số 5 - Trang 468-481 - 2006
Giulio Jori, Clara Fabris, Marina Soncin, Stefania Ferro, Olimpia Coppellotti, Donata Dei, Lia Fantetti, Giacomo Chiti, Gabrio Roncucci
AbstractBackground and ObjectivesPhotodynamic therapy (PDT) appears to be endowed with several favorable features for the treatment of infections originated by microbial pathogens, including a broad spectrum of action, the efficient inactivation of antibiotic‐resistant strains, the low mutagenic potential, and the lack of selectio...... hiện toàn bộ

David Kessel, M. Graça H. Vicente, John J. Reiners
AbstractBackground and ObjectivesThis study was designed to examine modes of cell death after photodynamic therapy (PDT).Study DesignMurine leukemia L1210 cells and human prostate Bax‐deficient DU145 cells were examined after PDT‐induced photodamage to the endoplasmic ...... hiện toàn bộ
Cultured epithelial cells response to phototherapy with low intensity laserLasers in Surgery and Medicine - Tập 39 Số 4 - Trang 365-372 - 2007
Fernanda de Paula Eduardo, Dolores Úrsula Mehnert, Telma Alves Monezi, Denise Maria Zezéll, Mark M. Schubert, Carlos Eduardo, Márcia Martins Marques
AbstractBackground and ObjectivesLittle is known about the intracellular response of epithelial cells to phototherapy. The aim of this in vitro study was to analyze the effect of phototherapy with low‐energy lasers with different wavelengths and powers on cultured epithelial cell growth under different nutritional conditions.... hiện toàn bộ
In vivo effects of low level laser therapy on inducible nitric oxide synthaseLasers in Surgery and Medicine - Tập 41 Số 3 - Trang 227-231 - 2009
Yumi Moriyama, Jacqueline Nguyen, Margarete K. Akens, Eduardo H. Moriyama, Lothar Lilge
AbstractBackground and ObjectiveLow level laser therapy (LLLT) has been demonstrated to modulate inflammatory processes with evidence suggesting that treatment protocol, such as wavelength, total energy, and number of treatments determine the clinical efficacy. In this study, the effects of LLLT mediated by different wavelengths a...... hiện toàn bộ
Stem cell proliferation under low intensity laser irradiation: A preliminary studyLasers in Surgery and Medicine - Tập 40 Số 6 - Trang 433-438 - 2008
Fernanda de Paula Eduardo, Daniela Franco Bueno, Patrícia Moreira de Freitas, Márcia Martins Marques, Maria Rita Passos‐Bueno, Carlos Eduardo, Mayana Zatz
AbstractBackground and ObjectivesPhototherapy with low intensity laser irradiation has shown to be effective in promoting the proliferation of different cells. The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the potential effect of laser phototherapy (660 nm) on human dental pulp stem cell (hDPSC) proliferation....... hiện toàn bộ
Anti‐Inflammatory effects of low‐level laser therapy (660 nm) in the early phase in carrageenan‐induced pleurisy in ratLasers in Surgery and Medicine - Tập 40 Số 7 - Trang 500-508 - 2008
Emerson Soldateli Boschi, Carlos Eduardo Leite, Vasyl Custódio Saciura, Eduardo Caberlon, Adroaldo Lunardelli, Shanna Bitencourt, Denizar Alberto da Silva Melo, Jarbas Rodrigues de Oliveira
AbstractBackground and ObjectiveIn the classic model of pleurisy there is little evidence about the anti‐inflammatory effects of low‐level laser therapy (LLLT) as well the dosage characteristics, such as wavelength, total energy, number and pattern of treatment. In this study we investigated the potential effects of LLLT on modula...... hiện toàn bộ
