The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the low power Helium Neon-Infra Red(HeNe-IR) laser and the special electromagnetic therapeutic apparatus stimulation, which is usually designated as TDP by using the initial of Tending Diancibo Pu which is the Chinese inscribed with English, on wound healing in rat. The seventy-five Sprague-Dawley adult female and male rats were assigned to the experimental and control groups. Each rat was anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium, and three full-thickness incisions with 12mm length wert made on the back of the half cf the rats and three deep second degree burns were made on the back of the remainder of the rats. From 34 hours after being injured, the rats of the experimental laser group were irradiated with the 157mW electric power HeNe-IR laser for 2 minutes every day and the rats of the experimental TDP group were stimulated with TDP irradiation with the 4km spot distance for 20 minutes every day during the 17 days. The rats were sacrificed and the wound parts of its were incised on the first day, 4th day, 7th day, 10th day and 17th day respectively after the beginning of wound treatment with laser and TDP irradiation. The incised wound parts were processed appropriately for the light microscopic and electron microscopic examination. The length of incised wound was measured with microcaliper before the wound part was incised. There was a significant decrease in the length of the incised wound of the experimental laser and TDP group, compared with that of control group at 4th day, 7th day and 10th day(p<0.01) after surgery. Through the histological examination of the wound site, the more rapid epithelialization and collagen formation in experimental groups were showed, compared with control group. The histological results were analyzed and summarized as the follows; The epidermis begins to be regenerated and the granulation tissue begins to be changed to the mature pattern in the H-E stained incised skin of the laser and TDP treatment group on the 4th day. The epidermis shows the complete regeneration and the granulation tissue in the dermis in mostly to be matured in the laser and TDP treatment group on the 7th day, compared with control group. The chronic inflammatory cells are oberved and the necrosis of the collagen fibers are partially observed in control group on the 10th day. The dermis of the laser and TOP treatment group reveals relatively compactly arranged collgen bundles with the mature collagen fibers on the 10th day. The epidermis and dennis of the laser and TDP group are repaired normally and the hair follicles are well regenerated on the 17th day. The mild edema and the granulation tissue is observed in the dermis of the control groups and the delayed treatment process is observed on the 17th day. The Most of proliferated collagen fibrils are found to be compact and regular in electron micrograph of burn skin of the laser treatment group on the 10th day hut the interstitial eadema and some inflammatory cells are found in the control group. The above results suggest that through the visual and histological examination the epithelized epithelium and the proliferation of the collagen liters in the dermis occur very effectively with the low power laser treatment and the TDP treatment in the incised wound healing and the burn wound healing.

Objective: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an emerging therapeutic procedure suitable for the treatment of cervical cancer. However, the side effects of PDT are severe, including skin ulceration, so we designed an experiment to examine the effects of multiple low-dose photodynamic therapy of 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis(1-methylpyridinium-4-yl) porphyrin (Tmpyp4) on tumour growth by utilizing a model in nude mice implanted with Hela cervical cancer cells. Materials and Methods: Female BALB/c nude mice (aged 5-6 weeks, weighing 18-20 g) were used. Hela cervical cancer cells were injected subcutaneously ($1{\times}10^7cells/200{\mu}L$). Ten days after injection, the mice were divided into three groups (n=6), the A group of controls without any treatment, the B group receiving a single-treatment with Tmpyp4 (10 mg/kg, intratumor injection) and irradiation (blue laser, $108J/cm^2$), and the C group given three-treatments with Tmpyp4 (10 mg/kg, intratumor injection) and irradiation at intervals of two days. After starting treatment, tumours were measured every two days, to assess growth. At 2 weeks after the last treatment of C group, tumour tissue and organs were collected from each mouse to evaluate tumor histology and organ damage. Results: Tumour growth in C group was significantly inhibited compared with A and B groups (P<0.05), without any injury to the skin and internal organs. Conclusion: Our novel findings demonstrated that multiple low-dose photodynamic therapy of Tmpyp4 could inhibit cervical cancer growth significantly with no apparent side effects.

저출력레이저는 인체조직에 biostimulation effects를 가지므로 구강주위에 발생하는 여려가지 질병에 대한 저출력레이저광의 효과에 관하여 많은 연구가 시도되고 있으며 또한 치료에 응용되고 있다. 감염창상에 저출력레이저 조사시 조직치유의 기전이 세균 성장에 의한 조직손상보다 주위 정상조직의 biostimulation effects가 우세하기 때문이라는 가설을 확인하고저 본 연구를 시행하였다. 백서 7마리를 레이저 조사군과 대조군으로 나누어 감염창상의 면적차이를 비교하여 다음고 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 저출력레이저 조사군에서 창상수축율이 현저히 높았다. 2. 부종의 빈도는 저출력레이저 조사시 뚜렷하게 감소하였다. 위의 사실로 보아 저출력레이저 조사시 감염창상의 치유촉진은 주위 정상조직의 biostimulation effect가 세균증식에 의한 조직의 손상보다 우세하기 때문이라는 가설을 확인할 수 있었다.

목적: 치은 미백은 치과치료의 목적으로 심미적 장애를 위한 치료에 가깝다. 기존의 치은미백술은 고출력 다이오드 레이저를 이용하여 박피술에 의한 치료를 했왔다. 그러나 이러한 치료법은 시술 후 감염 및 통증에서 자유로울 수 없기에, 우리는 저출력 LED 레이저를 이용하여 치은미백술을 진행하고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 돼지고기 표면에 레이저를 조사하여 출력전력, 온도변화, 피부 변성 등의 안정성을 측정하였다. 15 - 20 kg 비글의 구강내 점막 색소에 비손 365 nm LED 레이저를 15분씩, 1 - 2주간 1, 2회씩 각각 조사하였다. 헤마토실린-에오신 염색을 통하여 색소의 손실여부를 확인하였다. 결과: 365 nm LED 레이저 조사 부위의 멜라닌 색소가 줄어드는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 결론: 본 연구에서 제시하는 365 nm LED 레이저는 수술적 기술 및 다이오드 레이저를 이용한 탈색화 효과를 대처 할 수 있을 것이라고 사료 된다.

Pentoxifylline (PENTO)는 적혈구의 유동성을 증가시켜 모세혈관의 적혈구 흐름을 증가시킨다. 또한 적혈구내 2,3-DPG를 증가시켜서 산소 친화력을 감소시켜 산소의 해리를 촉진시킨다. Nicotinamide (NA)는 종양내 혈류를 일시적으로 증가시켜서 종양내 급성 저산소 세포의 수를 감소시킨다. PENTO와 NA의 병용이 저산소 세포의 산소화에 의해서 방사선 감수성을 증가시킬 수 있는지를 확인하기 위하여 FSaII생쥐의 섬유육종을 이용하여 실험을 시행하였다. 방사선에 의한 성장 장애가 유의하게 증가하였으며, 증가율은 2.5~2.8이었다. $TCD_{50}$가 대조 종양군에서는 57Gy였으나 PENTO+NA투여 종양군에서는 32Gy로 1.8배의 $TCD_{50}$의 감소를 보였다. 정상피부의 방사선 감수성에는 영향이 없었다. PENTO+NA의 방사선 감수성의 증가를 규명하기 위하여 종양내 혈류의 변화, 종양내 산소농도를 laser Doppler flowmetry와 산소 미소전극 방법으로 측정하였다. PENTO+NA투여후 10분 경과하여 혈류가 유의하게 증가하였으며 종양내 산소 분압도 8 mmHg에서 19 mmHg로 유의하게 증가함을 관찰하였다. 따라서 PEHTO또는 NA단독보다 PENTO+NA병통이 더욱 효과적이라 사료되며 생체내 종양의 방사선 감수성의 증가는 종양내 산소의 증가로 생각되며 더욱 방사선 감수성을 증가시키기 위하여 여러 농도의 PENTO의 단독 또는 NA와의 병용등에 대한 지속적인 연구가 필요하다.

본 연구에서는 mung bean starch (MBS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium benzoate (S), glycerol (GL), melanin (MEL)을 이용하여 광열 효과가 있는 기능성 acetaminophen (AP) 각인 MBS 기반 바이오 소재를 제조하고 약물 방출 특성을 조사하였다. 제조된 AP 각인 바이오 소재의 물리화학적 특성은 FE-SEM과 FT-IR을 통해 분석하였다. 또한, NIR (near infrared) laser (1.5 W/cm²) 조사에 따른 기능성 바이오 소재의 광열 효과 및 AP 방출 특성을 조사하였다. 바이오 소재에 NIR laser를 조사하였을 때, MEL이 첨가 바이오 소재는 첨가하지 않은 바이오 소재보다 2배 이상 높은 온도상승을 보였다. 표준 버퍼 용액과 인공 피부를 사용하여 기능성 AP 각인 바이오 소재의 AP 방출 특성 조사결과, NIR laser를 조사하였을 때, MEL 첨가 바이오 소재는 첨가하지 않은 바이오 소재보다 AP 방출율이 1.2배 높은 것을 확인하였다. 이 결과로부터, 기능성 바이오 소재는 급성 진통 치료를 위한 바이오 소재로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Background: Complex regional pain syndrome type I (CRPS-I) consists of disorders caused by spontaneous pain or induced by some stimulus. The objective was to verify the effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) using 830 nm wavelength light at the affected paw and involved spinal cord segments during the warm or acute phase. Methods: Fifty-six mice were randomized into seven groups. Group (G) 1 was the placebo group; G2 and G3 were treated with PBM on the paw in the warm and acute phase, respectively; G4 and G5 treated with PBM on involved spinal cord segments in the warm and acute phase, respectively; G6 and G7 treated with PBM on paw and involved spinal cord segments in the warm and acute phase, respectively. Edema degree, thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia, skin temperature, and functional quality of gait (Sciatic Static Index [SSI] and Sciatic Functional Index [SFI]) were evaluated. Results: Edema was lower in G3 and G7, and these were the only groups to return to baseline values at the end of treatment. For thermal hyperalgesia only G3 and G5 returned to baseline values. Regarding mechanical hyperalgesia, the groups did not show significant differences. Thermography showed increased temperature in all groups on the seventh day. In SSI and SFI assessment, G3 and G7 showed lower values when compared to G1, respectively. Conclusions: PBM irradiation in the acute phase and in the affected paw showed better results in reducing edema, thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia, and in improving gait quality, demonstrating efficacy in treatment of CRPS-I symptoms.
