Müller cells, the supporting cells of the retina, play a key role in responding to retinal stress by releasing chemokines, including CCL2, to recruit microglia and macrophages (MG/MΦ) into the damaged retina. Photobiomodulation (PBM) with 670 nm light has been shown to reduce inflammation in models of retinal degeneration. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether 670 nm light had an effect on Müller cell-initiated inflammation under retinal photo-oxidative damage (PD) in vivo and in vitro. Sprague-Dawley rats were pre-treated with 670 nm light (9J/cm2) once daily over 5 days prior to PD. The expression of inflammatory genes including CCL2 and IL-1β was analysed in retinas. In vitro, primary Müller cells dissociated from neonatal rat retinas were co-cultured with 661W photoreceptor cells. Co-cultures were exposed to PD, followed by 670 nm light treatment to the Müller cells only, and Müller cell stress and inflammation were assessed.
