Stimulatory and possible antioxidant effects of High Density Green Photons (HDGP) on cellular systems

J Med Life. 2014 Oct-Dec;7(4):619-22.

Abstract

The interactions between the electromagnetic field and the biological systems were extensively investigated, with remarkable results and advanced technologies. Nevertheless, the visible domain of the spectrum has been rather neglected, since the classic physics did not allow electronic transitions induced by visible light. Recently, the interaction of light with the matter has generated a new scientific domain known in Physics as optical manipulation, with the new concepts of optical matter and optical force. This article presents the results of our work concerning in vitro effects of High Density Green Photons (HDGP) irradiation on cell cultures: stimulation of cell proliferation and migration and a possible antioxidant action.

Keywords: HDGP; antioxidant effects; cellular systems.
