Low-level laser therapy attenuates the acute inflammatory response induced by muscle traumatic injury.
RatCrushLimb / muscle crushWistarTranscutaneous laser irradiation of the injured muscle3 and 5 J/cm2Started 2, 12 or 24 h after trauma
Model: Single-impact blunt trauma to the gastrocnemius muscle
Oxidant markers rose from 2 to 24 h after injury and were prevented by 3 J/cm2 given 2 h after trauma; laser also prevented the interleukin-6 and interleukin-10 changes, restored BDNF and VEGF, and recovered normal locomotion.
