## Abstract In addition to minimizing native and nonβnative protein aggregations, heat shock proteins (HSPs) regulate programmed cell death pathways. Members of this conserved protein family are in general activated by oxidative stress, and likely help maintain viability under this stress condition
Pulsed lasers produce a variety of therapeutically useful effects in tissues by thermal mechanisms. In contrast with conventional hyperthermia, pulsed lasers rapidly induce extremely high temperatures confined to small areas within the tissues. It is not established, however, how cellular damage and
