Far red and near infrared (NIR) light promotes wound healing, but the mechanism is poorly
understood. Our previous studies using 670 nm light-emitting diode (LED) arrays suggest …

Photobiomodulation by light in the red to near infrared range (630–1000nm) using low energy
lasers or light-emitting diode (LED) arrays has been shown to accelerate wound healing, …

Methanol intoxication produces toxic injury to the retina and optic nerve, resulting in blindness.
The toxic metabolite in methanol intoxication is formic acid, a mitochondrial toxin known …

This review presents current research on the use of far-red to near-infrared (NIR) light treatment
in various in vitro and in vivo models. Low-intensity light therapy, commonly referred to …

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the changes in gene expression of near-infrared
light therapy in a model of impaired wound healing. Background Data: Light-Emitting …

We examined the role of the sarcolemmal and mitochondrial K ATP channels in a rat model
of ischemic preconditioning (IPC). Infarct size was expressed as a percentage of the area at …

Opioids have been previously shown to confer short-term cardioprotection against a prolonged
ischemic insult. Therefore, the present study was designed to determine whether opioids …

Parkinson's disease is a common progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by
the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. …

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a movement disorder caused by the loss of dopaminergic
neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta, leading to nigrostriatal degeneration. The …

Mitochondria are central in retinal cell function and survival and they perform functions that
are critical to cell function. Retinal neurons have high energy requirements, since large …
