Optical manipulation of complex molecular systems by high density green photons: experimental and theoretical evidence

Optical manipulation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells reveals that green light protection against UV irradiation is favored by low Ca2+ and requires intact UPR pathway

“…In particular, high density green photons were shown to protect UV‐irradiated melanocytes in standard culture [8]. The use of high density green photons as a source of metastable states by polarization effects was first revealed within the Comorosan group, which termed this new type of matter as complex optical matter [11]. In this study, we used the eukaryotic microorganism Saccharomyces cerevisiae to identify molecular components which are relevant for the photoprotective effect of GL against the deleterious effects of UV irradiation.…”
