Abstract

The effect of infrared low-intensity laser irradiation on functional activity of blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes was studied in vitro. A dose-dependent priming of polymorphonuclear leukocytes induced by infrared low-intensity laser irradiation was demonstrated. Similar effects were also observed in the presence of the photosensitizer photosense.
