Modulating effect of low intensity pulsed ultrasound on the phenotype of inflammatory cells.
RatCrushLimb / muscle crushWistarMale (MeSH indexed)n = 40 rats, half treated with ultrasoundTranscutaneous application to the injured muscle
Model: Cryoinjury of the tibialis anterior muscle
Low intensity pulsed ultrasound reduced neutrophils and M1 macrophages at day 1, reduced total and M1 macrophages while increasing M2 macrophages at day 2, and reduced macrophage numbers at days 3 and 7 after muscle cryoinjury
