Healing activity of laser InGaAlP (660nm) in rats

Abstract

PuRPOsE: To evaluate the effect the healing activity of diode laser Indium Gallium Aluminum Phosphorus (InGaAlP) ë660nm on healing of surgical wounds in rats.METHOds: Fifty-four female Wistar rats were used, divided into three groups (n=18) and subdivided into three subgroups (n=6) to be studied in 5, 10 and 15 th days after surgical procedures. The wound was induced in the dorsal-cervical using punch. The lesions were irradiated on alternate days with InGaAlP laser, the energy densities of 3J/cm 2 (L3) or 6J/cm 2 (L6). The control group received no irradiation. At 5, 10 and 15 th days after surgery the animals were euthanized and the repair area was removed and histological sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin and picrossírius. We evaluated macroscopic and histological lesions in the times cited, as well as morphometric analysis of angiogenesis and collagen content. REsuLTs:The wound healing activity InGaAlP laser was evidenced by increased angiogenesis group L3 and L6 in relation to control group (CG) at the 5 th day (p=0.0001) and decreased polymorphonuclear infiltrate and hemorrhage (p=0.045 and p=0.07 respectively) in the groups L3 and L6 in relation to control group (GC). On the 10 and 15 th days was also observed in groups treated with laser L3 and L6 stimulation was pronounced fibroplasia (p=0.0003 and p=0.034 respectively) when compared with the control group (CG). CONCLusION:The InGaAlP laser acted positively on the healing of skin wounds in rats.Keywords: Wound Healing. Laser Therapy, Low Intensity. Rats. REsuMOOBJETIVO: Avaliar a atividade cicatrizante do laser diodo Alumínio Gálio Índio Fósforo (AlGaInP), ë660nm em feridas cutâneas induzida em ratos. MéTOdOs:Foram utilizados 54 ratos Wistar, fêmeas, divididos em três grupos (n=18) e subdivididos em três subgrupos (n=6) animais para serem estudados no 5, 10 e 15° dias após o procedimento cirúrgico. A ferida foi induzida em região dorso-cervical utilizando punch.

Photobiomodulation Improved the First Stages of Wound Healing Process After Abdominoplasty: An Experimental, Double-Blinded, Non-randomized Clinical Trial

“…Many studies have reported the effects of low-dose photobiomodulation on different mechanisms involved in the wound healing process. Depending on the illumination setting, this form of phototherapy can promote reduction in inflammatory cell production, the promotion of dermal cell proliferation and migration, the stimulation of collagen synthesis, angiogenesis or granulation [11][12][13][14][15]. Researchers have also demonstrated that similar effects could be achieved with different types of illumination sources under the appropriate conditions of wavelengths, doses, working distance and irradiance [16][17][18].…”

Action of AlGaInP laser and high frequency generator in cutaneous wound healing. A comparative study

“…However, some events 2 can lead to tissue loss and cause wounds, which constitutes a break in the continuity of a corporal tissue 3 , whose causes are: physical, chemical or mechanical traumas among others. In this context, there is stimulation of the organism's defense and the beginning of the cicatrization, which consists in reconstructing the injured site, in order to restore the integrity and normal function 4 , besides being complex and dynamic, and involving biochemical and physiological events, which must act in harmony for the benefit of tissue restoration 5,6. However, the complex process of tissue cicatrization can be influenced, it may not occur in a successful manner and it has long been an object of study concerning the factors that affect it. In recent years, researchers have used different equipments to facilitate the healing process of skin wounds with demonstrably scientific results [7][8][9][10] .…”

Antibacterial activity and in vivo wound healing potential of phenolic extracts from jaboticaba skin

“…For centuries, alternatives in medicinal plants have been sought for the treatment of several skin diseases, especially those which present wounds with scarring processes of the complicated solution, and their healing occurs by the rebuilding of the site to restore their integrity and normal function . However, a fast wound closure is not always possible, and the integrity of the injured tissue is compromised, leading to complications, such as bacterial colonization.…”
