Abstract
Since biological chromophores typically show several absorption peaks, the specific effects of photobiomodulation would be induced with a combination of two wavelengths, rather than a single wavelength of near-infrared (NIR) light. Single cell live imaging of T cells treated with a combination of 1064 and 1270 nm NIR lasers revealed that the treatment modulated intracellular calcium and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in T cells, which are known to be critical regulators of their function. The treatment with a specific combination of NIR wavelengths of low power laser could be further explored for therapeutic purposes including immunotherapy for cancer and allergy.
