Low intensity laser therapy accelerates muscle regeneration in aged rats.
BACKGROUND Elderly people suffer from skeletal muscle disorders that undermine their daily activity and quality of life; some of these problems can be listed as but not limited to: sarcopenia, changes in central and peripheral nervous system, blood hypoperfusion, regenerative changes contributing to atrophy, and muscle weakness. Determination, proliferation and differentiation of satellite cell...
متن کاملEvaluation of muscle regeneration in aged animals after treatment with low-level laser therapy.
BACKGROUND The aging process and its associated morphophysiological changes trigger a reduction in the regenerative ability of the satellite cells, a reduction of vascular tissue and an increase in the production of fibroblasts, developing a cellular environment unfavorable for muscle regeneration. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of low-level laser therapy on the mu...
متن کاملLow-level laser therapy with pulsed infrared laser accelerates third-degree burn healing process in rats.
This study investigated the influence of pulsed low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on the healing of a third-degree burn in a rat model. Two third-degree burns (distal and proximal) were made in the skin of 74 rats. Rats were divided into four groups. In group 1, the distal burn received LLLT with laser switched off; in groups 2 and 3, distal burns were treated with a 3,000 Hz-pulsed infrared diode...
متن کاملComparative effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound and low-level laser therapy on injured skeletal muscle.
OBJECTIVE The main purpose of this study was to compare the effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (US) and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on injured skeletal muscle after cryolesion by means of histopathological analysis and immunohistochemistry for cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2). BACKGROUND AND METHODS Thirty-five male Wistar rats were randomly distributed into four groups: intact control gr...
متن کاملLow-level laser therapy accelerates collateral circulation and enhances microcirculation.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on collateral circulation and microcirculation if a blood vessel is occluded. BACKGROUND DATA Investigators have attempted prostaglandin and ultrasound therapy to promote improvements in the vascular bed of deprived tissue after an injury, which may lead to occlusion of the blood vessels. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-four ...
