Abstract:Far infrared ray (FIR) energy radiated by the natural ceramics (Rhyolite) cooled FIR ceramics activates water molecules and blood circulation to stimulate skin and other tissues. The aim of our study is to make clear whether the FIR ceramics radiating FIR energy affect or not on the new bone formation in vivo and in vitro. Methods: MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured in FIR CO 2 incubator. The cell proliferation and the gene expression were analyzed by using WST-8 assay kit, RT-PCR and micro array analysis. The enzym… Show more
“…In this regard, FIR sauna therapy was reported to significantly reduce body weight and body fat in obese patients [46]. There are also a few findings of in vivo beneficial effects of FIR irradiation on bone formation; for example, FIR irradiation was reported to promote bone-forming activity of osteoblasts and increase bone mineral density when natural FIR ceramics were implanted under the periosteum of rat skull [47]. Our current data, together with these previous findings, may extend the potential use of FIR therapy in clinical applications to treat obesity and repair bone defects.…”

In the present study, a series of far-infrared ceramics were successfully synthesized using vanadium–titanium slag solid waste and some ordinary minerals as main raw materials with lanthanum (La) as an additive.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
