Everything You Need to Know About Red Light Therapy and WEIGHT LOSS

Near-infrared light treatment reduces astrogliosis in MPTP-treated monkeys

We have reported previously that intracranial application of near-infrared light (NIr) reduces clinical signs and offers neuroprotection in a subacute...

The effect of different doses of near infrared light on dopaminergic cell survival and gliosis in MPTP-treated mice

We have used the MPTP (1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine) mouse model to explore whether (i) the neuroprotective effect of near infrared light (NIr)...

Effects of a higher dose of near-infrared light on clinical signs and neuroprotection in a monkey model of Parkinson's disease

We have reported previously that intracranial application of near-infrared light (NIr) - when delivered at the lower doses of 25J...

Study of the NIR Light Induced Effects on Neuroblastoma N2A Cells with Parkinson's-Like Features

Parkinson's disease is an incurable neurodegenerative disorder associated with losses of dopaminergic neurones. The underlying causes of this loss are...

Near-infrared light (670 nm) reduces MPTP-induced parkinsonism within a broad therapeutic time window

We have shown previously that near-infrared light (NIr), when applied at the same time as a parkinsonian insult (e.g. 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine;...

The behavioural and neuroprotective outcomes when 670nm and 810nm near infrared light are applied together in MPTP-treated mice

We have shown previously that when applied separately, 670nm and 810nm near infrared light (NIr) reduces behavioural deficits and offers...

Photobiomodulation-induced changes in a monkey model of Parkinson's disease: changes in tyrosine hydroxylase cells and GDNF expression in the striatum

Intracranial application of red to infrared light, known also as photobiomodulation (PBM), has been shown to improve locomotor activity and...

Remote tissue conditioning is neuroprotective against MPTP insult in mice

leaving a need for treatments that mitigate disease progression. One emerging neuroprotective strategy is remote tissue conditioning, in which mild...

Photoactivation of ERK/CREB/VMAT2 pathway attenuates MPP+-induced neuronal injury in a cellular model of Parkinson's disease

The vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) pumps dopamine from cytoplasm into synaptic vesicles for subsequent release, and the deficits of...

Evidence for encephalopsin immunoreactivity in interneurones and striosomes of the monkey striatum

In this study, we examined the cellular distribution of encephalopsin (opsin 3; OPN3) expression in the striatum of non-human primates....

Photobiomodulation reduces gliosis in the basal ganglia of aged mice

This study explored the effects of long-term photobiomodulation (PBM) on the glial and neuronal organization in the striatum of aged...

Photobiomodulation in Parkinson's disease: A randomized controlled trial

Transcranial photobiomodulation (PBM), which involves the application of low-intensity red to near-infrared light (600-1100 nm) to the head, provides neuroprotection...
