Effect of Low Level Laser Irradiation Preconditioning On Infarct Size and Ventricular Remodeling in the Rat Heart
Author(s): Jitao Yang, MD and Xian'en Fa, MD*
Objectives: To investigate the effects of Low level laser irradiation (LLLI) preconditioning on the infarct size and ventricular remodeling in the rat heart. Background: LLLI can reduce the inflammatory reaction, attenuate the infarct size and formation of scar tissue, promote cardiomyocyte proliferation in the rat heart after myocardial infarction (MI). The effects of LLLI preconditioning on myocardium in the infarcted rat heart were rarely reported. Greater understanding of LLLI’s underlying photobiomodulative mechnisms would be helpful in translating photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy into the clinic. Methods: 3 days before establishing the model of rat MI, the LLLI was applied for the heart through the intercostal muscles in the chest in the LLLI group. The models of rat MI were induced by ligation of the l.. Read More»
