Effect of Diode Laser on Proliferation and Differentiation of PC12 Cells

This study investigated the effects of diode (GaAlAs) laser irradiation at an effective energy density of 5 or 20 J/cm2 on cell growth factor-induced differentiation and proliferation in pheochromocytoma cells (PC12 cells), and whether those effects were related to activation of the p38 pathway. Las...

Zusammenfassung:This study investigated the effects of diode (GaAlAs) laser irradiation at an effective energy density of 5 or 20 J/cm2 on cell growth factor-induced differentiation and proliferation in pheochromocytoma cells (PC12 cells), and whether those effects were related to activation of the p38 pathway. Laser irradiation at 20 J/cm2 significantly decreased the number of PC12 cells, while no difference was seen between the 5 J/cm2 group and the control group (p
