β¦ Synopsis
The effect of He-Ne laser radiation (A = 632.8 nm, I = 6.8 W/m2, irradiation time from 5 to 50 sec) on kinetics of spontaneous and Cundidu ablicans-stimulated chemiluminescence of mouse spleen cells was studied. It was found that laser radiation caused significant enhancement (180-250%) both of spontaneous chemiluminescence and Candidu-induced chemiluminescence. The ef- fective dose interval ranges from 100 to 300 J/m2, with a maximum at 200 J/m2. This finding shows that He-Ne laser irradiation can induce the respiratory burst (generation of reactive oxygen species having bactericidal activity) of phagocytic cells.

We have investigated the in vitro action of helium-neon (He-Ne) laser light on the cell cycle and the growth of rat kidney epithelial cell cultures. Dose-response studies showed that repeated He-Ne irradiation (dose rate 40 mW/cm2) once a day in a dose range between 11.9 and 142 J/cm2 significantly
The effects of laser light on the immune system have not been extensively characterized. Low-power laser sources, such as the helium-neon (He-Ne) laser with a wavelength of 632.8 nm, have been found to produce photobiological effects with evidence of interference with immunological functions. We hav
