Abstract
Introduction: This study aimed to assess the photobiomodulation effects of blue and red lasers on the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament mesenchymal stem cells (PDLMSCs). Methods: PDLMSCs were cultured and tested in 4 groups. The first two groups were exposed to 445 nm diode laser irradiation (200 mW, 6 and 12 J/cm2 ), and the third group was exposed to 660 nm diode laser irradiation (50 mW, 4 J/cm2 ). The fourth group was also considered as the control group without irradiation. Cell viability/proliferation was assessed by MTT assay. RUNX2, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), collagen type 1 (col1), and osteocalcin (OCN) were evaluated by RT-PCR, and Alizarin red was used to evaluate the colonization. The data were analyzed by means of one-way analysis of variance. Results: The results of our study showed that cell survival/proliferation in the second group was significantly lower than that in the control group on days 1 and 7 (P<0.05). RT-PCR showed a significant increase in osteogenic genes in all three laser groups compared to the control group (P<0.05). All groups showed a significant increase in calcium content compared to the control group (P<0.05). ALP activity also confirmed the osteoblastic differentiation of cells in laser groups. Conclusion: 445 nm and 660 nm lasers with the studied parameters showed positive effects on the proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation of PDLMSCs.

Abstract
Background: This investigation set out to compare the impacts of low-level diode laser (LLDL) and red light-emitting diode (LED) on the survival of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) and osteogenic/odontogenic differentiation. Methods and materials: In this ex vivo experimental study, the experimental groups underwent the irradiation of LLDL (4 J/cm2 energy density) and red LED in the osteogenic medium. Survival of hDPSCs was assessed after 24 and 48 h (n = 9) using the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay. The assessment of osteogenic/odontogenic differentiation was conducted using alizarin red staining (ARS; three repetitions). The investigation of osteogenic and odontogenic gene expression was performed at two time points, specifically 24 and 48 h (n = 12). This analysis was performed utilizing real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The groups were compared at each time point using SPSS version 24. To analyze the data, the Mann-Whitney U test, analysis of variance, Tukey's test, and t-test were utilized. Results: The MTT assay showed that LLDL significantly decreased the survival of hDPSCs after 48 h, compared with other groups (p < 0.05). The qualitative results of ARS revealed that LLDL and red LED increased the osteogenic differentiation of hDPSCs. LLDL and red LED both upregulated the expression of osteogenic/odontogenic genes, including bone sialoprotein (BSP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), dentin matrix protein 1 (DMP1), and dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP), in hDPSCs. The LLDL group exhibited a higher level of gene upregulation (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: The cell survival of hDPSCs was reduced, despite an increase in osteogenic/odontogenic activity. Clinical relevance: Introduction of noninvasive methods in regenerative endodontic treatments.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on cell proliferation, mitochondrial membrane potential changes (∆Ψm), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and osteoblast differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). These cells were irradiated with 660- and 940-nm lasers for 5 s, 50 s, and 180 s. Cell proliferation was assessed using the resazurin assay, cell differentiation by RUNX2 and BMP2 expression, and the presence of calcification nodules using alizarin-red S staining. ROS was determined by the dichlorofluorescein-diacetate technique and changes in ∆Ψm by the tetramethylrhodamine-ester assay. Data were analyzed by a Student's t-test and Mann-Whitney U test. The 940-nm wavelength for 5 and 50 s increased proliferation at 4 days postirradiation. After 8 days, a significant decrease in proliferation was observed in all groups. Calcification nodules were evident in all groups, with a greater staining intensity in cells treated with a 940-nm laser for 50 s, an effect that correlated with increased RUNX2 and BMP2 expression. ROS production and Δψm increased independently of irradiation time. In conclusion, photobiomodulation (PBM) with LLLT induced morphological changes and reduced cell proliferation rate, which was associated with osteoblastic differentiation and increased ROS and Δψm, independent of wavelength and time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) injection has emerged as a novel treatment for knee osteoarthritis (OA). In addition, low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been reported to delay the progression of OA. Thus, the current study on animal models of OA investigated the effectiveness of these methods when administered independently and combined. METHODS Twenty-five guinea pig models of OA were randomly sorted into five study groups. The test groups received intra-articular MSC, LLLT, and a combination of these therapeutics for 8 weeks. Radiological and histopathologic evaluations were carried out for the test groups and the control after the completion of treatments. RESULTS The MSC-treated groups showed better outcomes in terms of all radiological and histological indexes compared with the control, apart from subchondral bone (P < 0.05). Similarly, but to a different extent, the LLLT-treated group showed better results than the controls (P < 0.05). The combination of MSC therapy and LLLT improved the cartilage, surface, matrix, space width, osteophytes, and radiologic OA scores more effectively than each of these methods alone (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS According to our results, the combination of intra-articular MSC and LLLT can effectively improve OA in animal models. Further preclinical and clinical studies are recommended to assess the effectiveness of these therapeutics alone and in combination.

Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the potential effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) on cell proliferation and extracellular matrix production of human fibroblasts (FN1) cultured in 2D. Background: Patients with healing difficulties suffer injuries that take time to recover. In addition, aging can be seen in our faces daily when we look in the mirror; in both situations, collagen production is reduced. Fibroblasts act in the beginning and at the end of the inflammation phase, signaling to immune agents, and platelets, and producing collagen, coordinating repair. PBM increases cell viability, proliferation, and mRNA production. Methods: Human fibroblasts were irradiated three times after cell seed (after 24, 48, and 72 h) using a gallium-aluminum arsenideGaAlAs low-level laser (LLL). Cell viability, proliferative response, synthesis of collagen types I and III, and soluble collagen production were analyzed. The statistical significance of differences between groups was determined using unpaired one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) p < 0.05. Results: PBM increased significantly the number of fibroblasts, and the production of collagen types I (Col I) and III (Col III), after three sessions of LLL with 2.5 J per session, every 24 h, for 3 consecutive days; total energy delivered after 72 h is 7.5 J. Conclusions: This energy density of LLL increases fibroblast proliferation and collagen production in vitro without side effects.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) using 660 and 808 nm diode lasers (individual and in combination) on periodontal ligament mesenchymal stem cells (PDLSCs) in the presence of zoledronic acid (ZA). PDLSCs were cultured for 48 h in DMEM complete medium containing 5 μM ZA. PBMT was done three times with a 24-h interval in groups 1 (660 nm, 5 J/cm2 ), 2 (880 nm, 3 J/cm2 ), and 3 (660 + 808 nm) either in normal or ZA-treated culture medium. Control groups did not receive PBMT. Twenty-four hours post-irradiation, cell proliferation and expression of RANKL and OPG were assessed using MTT and real-time PCR tests, respectively. The results showed a significant decrease in cell viability in ZA-treated cells (p < 0.001). Additionally, ZA induced the expression of OPG (p = 0.03) while reducing RANKL (p < 0.001). Cell proliferation was significantly increased in 808 and 660 + 808 nm groups. Moreover, all PBMT groups could significantly increase and decrease the RANKL and OPG, respectively, in the presence of ZA (all p < 0.001). A combination of 660 + 808 nm showed the highest effects on both genes. In conclusion, it seems that PBMT can modulate the effects of ZA by inducing PDLSC proliferation and increasing RANKL-to-OPG gene expression ratio.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stem cell therapy has been considered to play a paramount role in the treatment modalities available for regenerative dentistry. The established beneficial effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) at the cellular level have led to the combined use of these two factors (PBM and stem cells). The main goal of this study was firstly to critically appraise the effects of PBM on periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), and secondly to explore the most effective PBM protocols applied. METHODS Pubmed, Cochrane, Scopus, Science Direct, and Google Scholar search engines were used to identify experimental in vitro studies in which PBM was applied to cultured PDLSCs. After applying specific keywords, additional filters, and inclusion/exclusion criteria, a preliminary number of 245 articles were narrowed down to 11 in which lasers and LEDs were used within the 630 - 1064 nm wavelength range. Selected articles were further assessed by three independent reviewers for strict compliance with PRISMA guidelines, and a modified Cochrane risk of bias to determine eligibility. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS The dataset analysed was extracted from the studies with sufficient and clearly presented PBM protocols. Simple univariate regression analysis was performed to explore the significance of contributions of potential quantitative predictor variables toward study outcomes, and a one-way ANOVA model was employed for testing differences between the laser or LED sources of the treatments. The significance level for testing was set at α = 0.05. RESULTS The proliferation rate, osteogenic differentiation, and expression of different indicative genes for osteogenesis and inflammation suppression were found to be positively affected by the application of various types of lasers and LEDs. With regard to the PBM protocol, only the wavelength variable appeared to affect the treatment outcome; indeed, the 940 nm wavelength parameter was found not to exert a favourable effect. CONCLUSIONS Photobiomodulation can enhance the stemness and differentiation capacities of periodontal ligament stem cells. Therefore, for PBM protocols, there remains no consensus amongst the scientific community. Statistical analyses performed here indicated that the employment of a near-infrared (NIR) wavelength of 940 nm may not yield a significant favourable outcome, although those within the 630 - 830 nm range did so. Concerning the fluence, it should not exceed 8 J/cm2 when therapy is applied by LED devices, and 4 J/cm2 when applied by lasers, respectively.

Abstract
Sensorineural hearing loss is very difficult to treat. Currently, one of the techniques used for hearing rehabilitation is a cochlear implant that can transform sound into electrical signals instead of inner ear hair cells. However, the prognosis remains very poor if sufficient auditory nerve cells are not secured. In this study, the effect of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESC) and photobiomodulation (PBM) combined treatment on auditory function and auditory nerve cells in a secondary neuropathy animal model was investigated. To confirm the engraftment of stem cells in vitro, cochlear explants were treated with kanamycin (KM) to mimic nerve damage and then cocultured with GFP-mESC. GFP-mESCs were observed to have attached and integrated into the explanted samples. An animal model for secondary neurodegeneration was achieved by KM treatment and was treated by a combination therapy of GFP-mESC and NIR-PBM at 8 weeks of KM treatment. Hearing recovery by functional testing using auditory brain stem response (ABR) and eABR was measured as well as morphological changes and epifluorescence analysis were conducted after 2 weeks of combination therapy. KM treatment elevated the hearing threshold at 70-80 dB and even after the combination treatment with GFP-mESC and PBM was applied, the auditory function was not restored. In addition, the stem cells transplanted into cochlea has exponentially increased due to PBM treatment although did not produce any malignancy. This study confirmed that the combined treatment with mESC and PBM could not improve hearing or increase the response of the auditory nerve. Nevertheless, it is noteworthy in this study that the cells are distributed in most cochlear tissues and the proliferation of stem cells was very active in animals irradiated with PBM compared to other groups wherein the stem cells had disappeared immediately after transplantation or existed for only a short period of time.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effect of Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) on human Periodontal Ligament Cells (hPDLCs) under tension stress. Primary hPDLCs were obtained using the tissue culture method, and P3 cells were utilized for the subsequent experiments. The study comprised four groups: a blank control group (Group B), a laser irradiation group (Group L), a tension stress group (Group T), and a laser + tension stress group (Group LT). Mechanical loading was applied using an in-vitro cell stress loading device at a frequency of 0.5 Hz and deformation of 2% for two hours per day for two days. Laser irradiation at 808 nm GaAlAs laser was administered 1 h after force loading. Cell samples were collected after the experiment. Bone and fiber remodeling factors were analyzed using PCR and Western blot. Flow cytometry was employed to assess the cell cycle, while ROS and Ca2+ levels were measured using a multifunctional enzyme labeling instrument. The results revealed that laser intervention under tension stress inhibited the expression of osteogenic differentiation factors, promoted the expression of osteoclast differentiation factors, and significantly increased the production of collagen factors, MMPs, and TIMPs. The LT group exhibited the most active cell cycle (P < 0.05). LLLT not only enhanced Ca2+ expression in hPDLCs under tension stress, but also stimulated the production of ROS. Overall, our findings demonstrate that LLLT effectively accelerated the proliferation of hPDLCs and the remodeling of periodontal tissue, possibly through the regulation of ROS and Ca2+ levels in hPDLCs.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy is a treatment that combines a light source with a photosensitizer. LEDs have attracted considerable attention in clinical dentistry because they are inexpensive and safe to use. Although the interaction between photosensitizers and LEDs in dental practice is effective for treating periodontal disease by killing periodontopathic bacteria, little is known about the effects of LEDs on human gingival fibroblasts (HGnFs), which play an important role in gingival wound healing. In this study, we investigated the effects of high-intensity red LED irradiation on HGnFs after the addition of methylene blue (MB), one of the least harmful photosensitizers, on wound healing and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production induced by photodynamic reactions. We found that irradiation of MB with high-intensity red LED at controlled energy levels promoted cell proliferation, migration, and production of wound healing factors. Furthermore, ROS production by a photodynamic reaction enabled the translocation of phosphorylated Grb2-associated binder-1, activating Extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase signals. Our findings suggest that proper control of ROS production has a beneficial effect on gingival fibroblasts, which constitute periodontal tissue, from the perspective of gingival wound healing.

Abstract
A thermal burn is the most frequent, distressing form of trauma. Globally, there is a critical necessity to explore novel therapeutic strategies for burn wound care. Combination therapy has marked therapeutic efficacy in positively regulating various phases of wound repair. Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a biophysical, non-thermal therapeutic healing modality to treat chronic non-healing wounds. It hypothesized that PBM using combined NIR wavelengths may absorb through different cellular photoacceptors with varying degrees of tissue penetration, which can potentially regulate the pace of healing. Therefore, the current study investigates the efficacy of dual-NIR wavelength treatment employing pulsed 810 nm and superpulsed 904 nm lasers PBM on transdermal burn repair in rats and unveils the associated molecular mechanistic insights. Rats were randomized into five groups: uninjured skin, burn control (sham-exposed), standalone treatment with pulsed 810 nm laser, superpulsed 904 nm laser, and dual combination groups. The present findings revealed that PBM with dual-NIR wavelength synergistically augmented burn wound healing compared to control and standalone treatments. The efficacy of combined treatment was exhibited by significantly enhanced wound area contraction (α-smooth muscle actin), proliferation (PCNA, cytokeratin-14, TGF-β2), angiogenesis (HIF-1α, CD31), ECM accumulation/ organization (collagen type 3, fibronectin), dermal hydration (AQP3), calcium homeostasis (TRPV3, calmodulin), and bioenergetics activation (CCO, AMPK-α, ATP). Collectively, PBM with dual-NIR wavelength (pulsed/ superpulsed-mode) treatment accelerates full-thickness burn wound healing, which could be used as a non-invasive translational approach in clinical significance in conjunction with existing burn wound care management.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of Nd: YAG (1064 nm) photobiomodulation on multilineage differentiation and immunomodulation potentials of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) in vitro and in vivo. For in vitro experiments, cells were divided into the control group (non-irradiated control ADSCs) and photobiomodulation groups. 0.5 J/cm2, 1 J/cm2, 2 J/cm2, and 4 J/cm2 were used for proliferation assays; for ADSCs adipogenic differentiation assays, 0.5 J/cm2, 1 J/cm2 were applied; 1 J/cm2 was used for migration and immunomodulation assays. The differentiation abilities were assessed by qPCR, Oil Red O staining, and Alizarin Red staining. The immunomodulation potential was assessed by qPCR and human cytokine array. DSS-induced colitis model. was used to test the effect of photobiomodulation on ADSCs immunomodulation potentials in vivo. Nd:YAG-based photobiomodulation dose-dependently promoted ADSCs proliferation and migration; 1 J/cm2 showed the best promotion effect on proliferation. Moreover, Nd:YAG photobiomodulation promoted ADSCs osteogenic differentiation and brown adipose adipogenic differentiation. The potential immunomodulation assays showed Nd:YAG photobiomodulation improved Anti-inflammation capacity of ADSCs and photobiomodulation irradiated ADSCs effectively alleviated DSS-induced colitis severity in vivo. Our study suggests Nd:YAG photobiomodulation might enhance the ADSCs multilineage differentiation and immunomodulation potentials. These results might help to enhance ADSCs therapeutic effects for clinical application. However, further studies are needed to explore the mechanisms of Nd:YAG photobiomodulation promoting multilineage differentiation and immunomodulation potentials of ADSCs.

Abstract
Osteoblasts are essential for bone formation and can perceive external mechanical stimuli, which are translated into biochemical responses that ultimately alter cell phenotypes and respond to environmental stimuli, described as mechanical transduction. These cells actively participate in osteogenesis and the formation and mineralisation of the extracellular bone matrix. This review summarises the basic physiological and biological mechanisms of five different physical stimuli, i.e. light, electricity, magnetism, force and sound, to induce osteogenesis; further, it summarises the effects of changing culture conditions on the morphology, structure and function of osteoblasts. These findings may provide a theoretical basis for further studies on bone physiology and pathology at the cytological level and will be useful in the clinical application of bone formation and bone regeneration technology.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine is used in the canine to optimize tissue healing and treat osteoarthritis and soft tissue injuries. Rehabilitation therapy is also often implemented in the treatment and management of musculoskeletal conditions in the canine. Initial experimental studies have shown that regenerative medicine and rehabilitation therapy may work safely and synergistically to enhance tissue healing. Although additional study is required to define optional rehabilitation therapy protocols after regenerative medicine therapy in the canine, certain fundamental principles of rehabilitation therapy still apply to patients treated with regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Tissue engineering (TE) is currently considered a cutting-edge discipline that offers the potential for developing treatments for health conditions that negatively affect the quality of life. This interdisciplinary field typically involves the combination of cells, scaffolds, and appropriate induction factors for the regeneration and repair of damaged tissue. Cell fate decisions, such as survival, proliferation, or differentiation, critically depend on various biochemical and biophysical factors provided by the extracellular environment during developmental, physiological, and pathological processes. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of action of these factors is critical to accurately mimic the complex architecture of the extracellular environment of living tissues and improve the efficiency of TE approaches. In this review, we recapitulate the effects that biochemical and biophysical induction factors have on various aspects of cell fate. While the role of biochemical factors, such as growth factors, small molecules, extracellular matrix (ECM) components, and cytokines, has been extensively studied in the context of TE applications, it is only recently that we have begun to understand the effects of biophysical signals such as surface topography, mechanical, and electrical signals. These biophysical cues could provide a more robust set of stimuli to manipulate cell signaling pathways during the formation of the engineered tissue. Furthermore, the simultaneous application of different types of signals appears to elicit synergistic responses that are likely to improve functional outcomes, which could help translate results into successful clinical therapies in the future.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is associated with severe pain, bone deformity, fracture, and bone loss. It is important to find strategies to prevent bone resorption and treat osteoporosis. This study sought to assess the effect of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) with different wavelengths on bone mineral density (BMD) in osteoporotic rats. This animal study evaluated 63 adult female rats. The rats underwent ovariectomy to induce osteoporosis. Ovariectomized rats were randomly divided into 9 groups of control (OC), treatment with zoledronic acid alone (0.02 mg/kg), and treatment with 660 nm, 810 nm, and 940 nm PBMT alone (3 times a week for 6 weeks, energy density of 4 J/cm2), and combined with zoledronic acid. The healthy control group (HC) only underwent sham surgery. The rats underwent cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) 52 days after the first treatment session to measure their BMD according to the gray value (GV) of images. To assess the biomechanical properties of bone, the resected bones were subjected to 3-point bending test (3-PBT). The experimental groups had significant differences with the OC group regarding radiographic and biomechanical properties of bone (P < 0.05), indicating a healing course. No significant difference was noted between the experimental groups treated with different laser wavelengths and those treated with zoledronic acid (P > 0.05). In the condition of this study, it was found that PBMT at a constant energy density of 4 J/cm2 with 660-, 810-, and 940-nm wavelengths is effective for enhancement of bone mineral density and biomechanical properties. No significant difference was noted between different wavelengths of diode laser regarding radiographic and biomechanical properties of bone.

Abstract
Post-surgical bone defects require new alternative approaches for a better healing process. For this matter, photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) has been used in order to improve the process of healing, pain, and inflammation reduction and tissue rejuvenation. This study is set to evaluate the effect of PBMT on angiogenic and inflammatory factors for bone regeneration in rat post-surgical cranial defects. Thirty male Wistar rats were distributed accidentally into two groups (Subdivided into 3 groups according to their follow-up durations). During operation, an 8-mm critical-sized calvarial defect was made in each rat. A continuous diode laser was used (power density 100 mW/cm2, wavelength 810 nm, the energy density of 4 J/cm2). Bone samples were assessed histomorphometrically and histologically after hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. ALP, PTGIR, OCN, and IL-1 levels were measured by RT-PCR. VEGF expression was studied by immunohistochemistry analysis. The level of IL-1 expression decreased significantly in the PBMT group compared to the control after 7 days (p < 0.05), while, the PTGIR level was improved significantly compared to the control group after 7 days. Furthermore, levels of OCN and ALP improved after PBM use; however, the alterations were not statistically meaningful (p > 0.05). Evaluation with IHC displayed a significant rise in VEGF expression after 3 days in the PBMT group compared to the control (p > 0.05). In this study's conditions, the results showed a meaningful alteration in osteogenic, inflammatory, and angiogenic mediators in post-surgical calvarial defect following PBMT. It appears that PBM can accelerate angiogenesis in the bone healing procedure which can be helpful in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This experimental study aimed to assess the effect of irradiation of red light-emitting diode (LED) and Diode low-level laser (LLL) on osteogenic/odontogenic differentiation of stem cells from the apical papilla (SCAPs). MATERIALS AND METHODS SCAPs were isolated from the human tooth root. The experimental groups were subjected to 4 J/cm2 diode low level laser and red LED irradiation in osteogenic medium. The control group did not receive any irradiation. Cell viability/proliferation of SCAPs was assessed by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay on days 1 and 2 (n = 9). Osteogenic differentiation was evaluated by alizarin red staining (ARS) (n = 3), and expression of osteogenic genes by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) (n = 12) on days 1 and 2. SPSS version 18 was used for data evaluation. The Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests were used to compare the groups at each time point. RESULTS The MTT assay showed no significant difference in cell viability/proliferation of SCAPs in the low level laser, red LED, and control groups at 24 or 48 h (P < 0.001). The ARS assessment showed that low level laser and red LED irradiation enhanced osteogenic differentiation of SCAPs. low level laser and red LED irradiation both induced over-expression of osteogenic/dentinogenic genes including alkaline phosphatase (ALP), dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP), dentin matrix protein 1 (DMP-1), and bone sialoprotein (BSP) in SCAPs. Up-regulation of genes was significantly greater in low level laser irradiation group than red LED group (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Diode low level laser irradiation with 4 J/cm2 energy density and red LED irradiation enhanced osteogenic differentiation of SCAPs without adversely affecting cell viability.

Abstract
Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) has become an adjuvant therapeutic possibility in body remodeling procedures. Given this scenario, this study was proposed with the aim of evaluating the effects of PBMT to Light Emitting Diode (LED) associating the red (630 nm) and infrared (850 nm) wavelengths in the subcutaneous fatty tissue. This controlled study of comparative intervention that evaluated a sample of subcutaneous fatty tissue from women with grade II obesity. The participants received the LED PBMT treatment with associated red and infrared wavelengths sequentially on the left side of the abdomen and the right side was considered as control, with the collection of biological material performed at the time of bariatric surgery. For histological and immunohistochemical evaluation, Caspase 3, Cleaved Caspase 3, CD68+, HSL and adipophilin markers were used. The participants showed positivity in the expression of Caspase 3 and Cleaved Caspase (p < .0001), CD68+ macrophages (p < .0001), HSL (p < .0001) and adipophilin (p < .0013) in the intervention sample when compared to the control. PBMT and LED associating red and infrared wavelengths were able to promote autophagic lipolysis induced by adipocyte cell apoptosis in the subcutaneous tissue of obese individuals.

Abstract
Neuronal cells can be generated from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) through biological or chemical inducers. Research has shown that this process may be optimized by the introduction of laser irradiation in the form of photobiomodulation (PBM) to cells. This in vitro study is aimed at generating neuronal-like cells with inducers, chemical or biological, and at furthermore treating these transdifferentiating cells with consecutive PBM of a 525 nm green (G) laser and 825 nm near-infrared (NIR) laser light with a fluence of 10 J/cm2. Cells were exposed to induction type 1 (IT1): 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) (0.5 mM)+indomethacin (200 μM)+insulin (5 μg/ml) for 14 days, preinduced with β-mercaptoethanol (BME) (1 mM) for two days, and then incubated with IT2: β-hydroxyanisole (BHA) (100 μM)+retinoic acid (RA) (10-6 M)+epidermal growth factor (EGF) (10 ng/ml)+basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) (10 ng/ml) for 14 days and preinduced with β-mercaptoethanol (BME) (1 mM) for two days and then incubated with indomethacin (200 μM)+RA (1 μM)+forskolin (10 μM) for 14 days. The results were evaluated through morphological observations, viability, proliferation, and migration studies, 24 h, 48 h, and 7 days post-PBM. The protein detection of an early neuronal marker, neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and late, ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), was determined with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). The genetic expression was also explored through real-time PCR. Results indicated differentiation in all experimental groups; however, cells that were preinduced showed higher proliferation and a higher differentiation rate than the group that was not preinduced. Within the preinduced groups, results indicated that cells treated with IT2 and consecutive PBM upregulated differentiation the most morphologically and physiologically.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE The method of photobiomodulation (PBM) has been used in medicine for a long time to promote anti-inflammation and pain-resolving processes in different organs and tissues. PBM triggers numerous cellular pathways including stimulation of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, alteration of the cytoskeleton, cell death prevention, increasing proliferative activity, and directing cell differentiation. The most effective wavelengths for PBM are found within the optical window (750 to 1100 nm), in which light can permeate tissues and other water-containing structures to depths of up to a few cm. PBM already finds its applications in the developing fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, the diversity of three-dimensional (3D) systems, irradiation sources, and protocols intricate the PBM applications. AIM We aim to discuss the PBM and 3D tissue engineered constructs to define the fields of interest for PBM applications in tissue engineering. APPROACH First, we provide a brief overview of PBM and the timeline of its development. Then, we discuss the optical properties of 3D cultivation systems and important points of light dosimetry. Finally, we analyze the cellular pathways induced by PBM and outcomes observed in various 3D tissue-engineered constructs: hydrogels, scaffolds, spheroids, cell sheets, bioprinted structures, and organoids. RESULTS Our summarized results demonstrate the great potential of PBM in the stimulation of the cell survival and viability in 3D conditions. The strategies to achieve different cell physiology states with particular PBM parameters are outlined. CONCLUSIONS PBM has already proved itself as a convenient and effective tool to prevent drastic cellular events in the stress conditions. Because of the poor viability of cells in scaffolds and the convenience of PBM devices, 3D tissue engineering is a perspective field for PBM applications.

Abstract
Background Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) refers to a group of disorders that affect temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and its associated muscles with very limited treatment options. Stem cell research is emerging as one of the promising fields in the treatment of degenerative diseases. The ability of human adipose derived stem cells to differentiate into many cell types is driving special interest in several disease management strategies. Photobiomodulation has enhanced the role of these stem cells through their ability to promote cell proliferation and differentiation. Hence, this study examined the differentiation potential of human adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) into fibroblasts and chondrocytes using a 940 nm diode laser for possible TMD therapy. Materials and methods ADSCs were cultured at different seeding densities and for different time intervals. After irradiation at 24, 48, 72 h, 1, 2 and 3 weeks, ADSC viability and morphological changes were assessed in groups with and without basic fibroblast growth factor. Additionally, the level of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the cells was also recorded. The differentiated fibroblasts and chondrocytes were characterized with flow cytometry and immunofluorescence techniques, at 1- and 2-weeks post-irradiation. Results Increased ATP proliferation and cell viability above 90% were observed in all post-irradiation experimental groups. Post irradiation results from flow cytometry and immunofluorescence at 1- and 2‐weeks confirmed the expression of chondrogenic and fibroblastic cell surface markers. Conclusion This study describes stimulatory techniques utilized to differentiate ADSCs into fibroblastic and chondrogenic phenotypes using diode lasers at 940 nm. The study proposes a new treatment model for patients with degenerative disc diseases of the TMJ. The study will offer new possibilities in tissue engineering and TMJ disc management through photobiomodulation of ADSCs using a 940 nm diode laser.

Abstract
Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a non-invasive therapeutic modality with demonstrated effects in many fields related to regenerative medicine. In the field of orthopedics, in particular, PBM at various wavelengths has demonstrated the capacity to trigger multiple biological effects associated with protective mechanisms in musculoskeletal tissues. The articles cited in this review show that devices operating close to or within the near infrared range at low intensities can provoke responses which favor the shift in the predominant catabolic microenvironment typically seen in degenerative joint diseases, especially osteoarthritis (OA). These responses include proliferation, differentiation and expression of proteins associated with stable cell cycles. Additionally, PBM can also modulate oxidative stress, inflammation and pain by exerting regulatory effects on immune cells and blocking the transmission of pain through sensory neuron fibers, without adverse events. Collectively, these effects are essential in order to control the progression of OA, which is in part attributed to exacerbated inflammation and degradative enzymatic reactions which gradually contribute to the destruction of joint tissues. PBM may offer medical experts ease of application, financial viability, efficacy and lack of serious adverse events. Therefore, it may prove to be a suitable ally in the management of mild to moderate degrees of OA. This review explores and discusses the principal biological mechanisms of PBM and how the produced effects may contribute to the amelioration of osteoarthritic progression. Literature was reviewed using PubMed and Google Scholar in order to find studies describing the mechanisms of PBM. The investigation included a combination of nomenclature such as: “photobiomodulation”, “phototherapy”, “laser therapy”, “PBM”, “osteoarthritis”, low level light therapy”, “inflammation” and “cartilage”. We considered only articles written in English, with access to the full text.

Abstract
Background Human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) have been widely used for regenerative medicine because of their therapeutic efficacy and differentiation capacity. However, there are still limitations to use them intactly due to some difficulties such as poor cell engraftment and viability after cell transplantation. Therefore, techniques such as photobiomodulation (PBM) are required to overcome these limitations. This study probed improved preclinical efficacy of irradiated hADSCs and its underlying molecular mechanism.
Methods hADSCs were irradiated with green organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Treated cells were analyzed for mechanism identification and tissue regeneration ability verification. Expression levels of genes and proteins associated with photoreceptor, cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and wound healing were evaluated by performing multiple assays and immunostaining. Excision wound models were employed to test in vivo therapeutic effects. Results In vitro assessments showed that Opsin3 (OPN3) and OPN4 are both expressed in hADSCs. However, only OPN4 was stimulated by green OLED irradiation. Cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and growth factor expression in treated hADSCs were enhanced compared to control group. Conditioned medium containing paracrine factors secreted from irradiated hADSCs increased proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts and normal human epidermal keratinocytes. Irradiated hADSCs exerted better wound healing efficacy in vivo than hADSCs without OLED irradiation. Conclusions Our study introduces an intracellular mechanism of PBM in hADSCs. Our results revealed that photoreceptor OPN4 known to activate Gq-protein and consequently lead to reactive oxygen species production responded to OLED irradiation with a wavelength peak of 532 nm. In conclusion, green OLED irradiation can promote wound healing capability of hADSCs, suggesting that green OLED has potential preclinical applications.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine uses undifferentiated adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) to differentiate into multiple cell types. Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a rapidly growing treatment for pain and inflammation reduction, as well as tissue healing. PBM's efficacy is dependent on wavelength and energy dosage. Red (600-700 nm) and near-infrared (780-1100 nm) wavelengths have been shown to promote cell proliferation. Light wavelengths such as green (495 nm-570 nm) have been found to influence ADMSC differentiation. The initiation of ADMSC proliferation and differentiation requires physiologically relevant levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), while increased levels inhibit self-renewal. Stem cell differentiation is guided by mitochondrial metabolism, where an increased mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) is associated with higher in vitro differentiation capacity. ADMSCs must home to and accumulate at the sites of injury in regenerative medicine, so cell homing is critical. The aim of this in vitro study was to compare consecutive NIR (825 nm) and green (525 nm) applications on ADMSC morphology and physiology with the possibility that multiple wavelengths could lead to a combination of the two effects. The results showed that concurrent use of NIR-green irradiation significantly stimulated ADMSC proliferation, increasing population density and cellular ATP. Furthermore, NIR-green showed a time dependent increase in ROS production and was significantly higher at 7 days. Consecutive NIR-green irradiation significantly increased MMP and was most effective at facilitating ADMSC migration over time. Findings suggest that with consecutive NIR and green irradiation, the ADMSCs can rapidly proliferate, but can also be modulated for regenerative purposes.

Abstract
Gene expression evaluation in cells and biological tissues has been crucial for research in biology, medicine, biotechnology, and diagnostic. Messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) levels show relationship with gene expression, and they can be measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) for the quantification of steady-state mRNA levels in cells and biological tissues. Radiations emitted from low-power lasers induce photobiomodulation, which is the base of therapeutic protocols for disease treatment. Despite that the understanding on photobiomodulation has been improved by mRNA level evaluation, laser irradiation parameters and procedures are diversified among studies, harming the comparison of RT-qPCR data. In this systematic review, data from mRNA levels reported in photobiomodulation studies were summarized regarding the process, function, and gene. Literature search was conducted for the assessment of published reports on mRNA levels evaluated by RT-qPCR in cells and biological tissues exposed to low-power lasers. Data showed that mRNA levels have been evaluated by RT-qPCR for a variety of genes related to molecular, cellular, and systemic processes after low-power violet-orange, red, and infrared laser exposure. Results from gene expression have increased the understanding of the mechanisms involved in photobiomodulation, and they can be useful to increase the efficacy and safety of clinical applications based on low-power lasers.

Abstract
Several methods have been proposed to enhance the regeneration and healing time in periodontal therapy. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) is a recently suggested novel technique for this purpose. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of PBMT with various laser wavelengths and energy densities on proliferation of human periodontal ligament mesenchymal stem cells (PDLMSCs). The wells containing PDLMSCs were subjected to laser irradiation at 635, 660, 808, and 980 nm wavelengths with 1, 1.5, 2.5 and 4 J/cm2 energy densities. Cell proliferation and viability were evaluated after 1, 3, and 5 days with the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay and 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining. No significant difference was observed among the experimental and the control groups on day 1 (P>0.05). On day 3, 808 nm laser at 4 J/cm2 energy density and 980 nm laser at all densities had significant differences with control group. On day 5, the control group had significant differences in cell proliferation with 808 nm laser at 2.5 and 4 J/cm2 energy densities, and 980 nm laser at all densities. PBMT with 635, 660, 808, and 980 nm wavelengths increased the proliferation of PDLMSCs but the maximum cell viability was prominent after irradiation by 980 nm laser with energy density of 4 J/cm2 on day 3.

Abstract
Dental pulp cells are a source of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells with a high proliferation rate and multilineage differentiation potential. This study investigated the photobiomodulated bioenergetic effects of mitochondria in osteoblasts that differentiated from human pulp stem cells. The systematic review followed PRISMA guidelines. The PICO question was formulated. Criteria for inclusion and exclusion were established prior to searches being performed on the PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Scopus. Articles were identified and included if published in English within last 10 years; photobiomodulation or low-level laser therapy were discussed; the delivery parameters for dose and time were included and the studies focused on bioenergetics of osteoblast mitochondria. Studies excluded were non-human dental pulp tissue and in vivo studies. A total number of 110 articles were collated, 106 were excluded leaving a total of 4 articles. These studies demonstrated that in vitro use of photobiomodulation was performed using different laser and LED types; InGaAlP; InGaN; and InGaAsP with average wavelengths of 630 to 940 nm. Primary human osteoblastic STRO-1 and mesenchymal stem cell lineages were studied. Three out of four articles confirmed positive bioenergetic effects of photobiomodulation on mitochondria of osteoblasts derived from human pulp cells. This systematic review demonstrated a lack of adequate reporting of bioenergetics of osteoblast mitochondria after photobiomodulation treatment.

Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the impact of red LED irradiation on the viability, proliferation, colonogenic potential, markers expression along with osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells. DPSCs were isolated from sound human permanent teeth using enzymatic digestion method and seeded with regular culture media. Cells at P4 were irradiated using red LED Light (627 nm, 2 J/cm2) and examined for growth kinetics, and multilineage differentiation using the appropriate differentiation media. The irradiated groups showed an increase in cellular growth rates, cell viability, clonogenic potential, and decrease in population doubling time compared to the control group. Cells of the irradiated groups showed enhanced differentiation towards osteogenic and chondrogenic lineages as revealed by histochemical staining using alizarin red and alcian blue stains. Photobiomodulation is an emerging promising element of tissue engineering triad besides stem cells, scaffolds, and growth factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy is known to have the potential to induce angiogenesis. However, there are still some limitations regarding their clinical application. Photomodulation/photobiomodulation is non-invasive and non-toxic phototherapy able to stimulate cell viability, proliferation, differentiation, and migration, when the right irradiation parameters are applied. A review of the published articles on human conditioned-by-photobiomodulation mesenchymal cells in an in vitro set up was carried out. Our aim was to describe the studies' results and identify any possible tendency that might highlight the most suitable procedures. METHODS A search in English of the PubMed database was carried out with the search criteria: photobiomodulation or photoactivation or photomodulation, and mesenchymal cells. All irradiations applied in vitro, on human mesenchymal cells, with wavelengths ranged from 600 to 1000 nm. RESULTS The search yielded 42 original articles and five reviews. Finally, 37 articles were selected with a total of 43 procedures. Three procedures (7.0%) from 620 to 625 nm; 26 procedures (60.5%) from 625 to 740 nm; 13 procedures (30.2%) from 740 to 1000 nm; and one procedure (2.3%) with combinations of wavelengths. Of the 43 procedures, 14 assessed cell viability (n = 14/43, 32.6%); 34 cell proliferation (n = 34/43, 79.1%); 19 cell differentiation (n = 19/43, 44.2%); and three cell migration (n = 3/43, 7.0%). CONCLUSIONS Photobiomodulation is a promising technology that can impact on cell viability, differentiation, proliferation, or migration, leading to enhance its regenerative capacity.

Abstract
This study is focused on comparing the effect of various energy densities and wavelengths of diode lasers on the proliferation of human gingival fibroblast (HGF) cells in vitro. In this study, 204 sample cells were examined in 4 test groups (laser radiation) and 1 control group (non-laser radiation). The proliferation rate of radiated cells with wavelengths of 635, 660, 808 and 980 nm and the densities of 1, 1.5, 2.5 and 4 J cm-2 was measured after 1, 3 and 5 days using the MTT assay. The proliferation rate of human gingival fibroblast (HGF) cells in test groups was increased on day 1 at wavelengths of 635, 808 and 980 nm and on day 3 at the wavelength of 980 nm compared with the control group. Our findings denoted that the photobiomodulation therapy increased the proliferation rate of HGF. The most desirable laser radiation setting, which led to the highest proliferation rate of the cells, included 980 nm wavelength with 1, 1.5 and 4 J cm-2 energy densities and 635 nm wavelength with 4 J cm-2 energy density.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stem cells have attracted the researchers interest, due to their applications in regenerative medicine. Their self-renewal capacity for multipotent differentiation, and immunomodulatory properties make them unique to significantly contribute to tissue repair and regeneration applications. Recently, stem cells have shown increased proliferation when irradiated with low-level laser therapy or Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBMT), which induces the activation of intracellular and extracellular chromophores and the initiation of cellular signaling. The purpose of this study was to evaluate this phenomenon in the literature. METHODS The literature investigated the articles written in English in four electronic databases of PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar and Cochrane up to April 2019. Stem cell was searched by combining the search keyword of "low-level laser therapy" OR "low power laser therapy" OR "low-intensity laser therapy" OR "photobiomodulation therapy" OR "photo biostimulation therapy" OR "LED". In total, 46 articles were eligible for evaluation. RESULTS Studies demonstrated that red to near-infrared light is absorbed by the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Mitochondria are significant sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Mitochondria play an important role in metabolism, energy generation, and are also involved in mediating the effects induced by PBMT. PBMT may result in the increased production of (ROS), nitric oxide (NO), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). These changes, in turn, initiate cell proliferation and induce the signal cascade effect. CONCLUSION The findings of this review suggest that PBMT-based regenerative medicine could be a useful tool for future advances in tissue engineering and cell therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Random skin flap ischemic necrosis is a serious challenge in reconstructive surgery. Photobiomodulation is a noninvasive effective technique to improve microcirculation and neovascularization. Photobiomodulation with red or blue light has been separately proven to partially prevent skin flap necrosis, but the synergistic effect of red and blue light not been elucidated. Our experiment evaluated the impact of postconditioning with red-blue light therapy on the viability of random flaps. METHODS Thirty Sprague-Dawley male rats (male, 12 weeks) with a cranially based random pattern skin flap (3 × 8 cm) were divided into 3 groups: control group, red light group, and red-blue light group. On postoperative day 7, flap survival was observed and recorded using transparent graph paper, flaps were obtained and stained with hematoxylin and eosin, and microvessel density was measured. Micro-computed tomography was used to measure vascular volume and vascular length. On days 0, 3, and 7 after surgery, blood flow was measured by laser Doppler. To investigate the underlying mechanisms, the amount of nitric oxide (NO) metabolites in the flap tissue was assessed on days 3, 5, and 7 after surgery. RESULTS The mean percentage of skin flap survival was 59 ± 10% for the control group, 69 ± 7% for the red light group, and 79 ± 9% for the red-blue light group (P < 0.01). The microvessel density was 12.3 ± 1.2/mm2 for the control group, 31.3 ± 1.3/mm2 for the red light group, and 36.5 ± 1.4/mm2 for the red-blue light group (P < 0.01). Both vascular volume and total length in the red-blue light group showed significantly increased compared with the red light and control group (P < 0.01). Blood flow in the red-blue light treated flap showed significantly increased at postsurgery days 3 and 7 compared with the red light and control group (P < 0.01). The level of the NO metabolites was significantly increased in flap tissues belonging to the red-blue light group compared with the other 2 groups (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS This study showed that postconditioning with red-blue light therapy can enhance the survival of random skin flap by improving angiogenesis and NO releasing.

Abstract
Photobiomodulation (PBM) is an acceptable method of stimulating stem cells through its non-invasive absorption by the cell photoreceptors and the induction of cellular response. The current research was aimed at evaluating the effect of near-infrared PBM on proliferation and osteogenic differentiation in inflamed periodontal ligament stem cells (I-PDLSCs). I-PDLSCs were isolated and characterized. Third passage cells were irradiated with 940-nm laser at an output power of 100 mW in a continuous wave. A fluence of 4 J/cm2 in three sessions at 48-h intervals was applied and compared with non-irradiated controls. Cell viability and proliferation were evaluated by MTT assay. Alkaline phosphatase activity, quantitative Alizarin red staining test, and q-RT-PCR were used to evaluate the osteogenic properties of the I-PDLSCs in four groups of (a) osteogenic differentiation medium + laser (ODM + L), (b) osteogenic differentiation medium without laser (ODM), (c) non-osteogenic differentiation medium + laser (L), and (d) non-osteogenic differentiation medium (control). There was a non-significant increase in the viability of cells at 48- and 72-h post last laser irradiation. Alizarin red staining revealed no significant stimulatory effect of PBM at 14 and 21 days. However, alkaline phosphatase activity was significantly higher in the L + ODM group. Expression of osteogenic-related genes had a statistically significant increase at 21-day post irradiation. The irradiation used in the present study showed no significant increase in the proliferation of I-PDLSCs by PBM. However, expression levels of osteogenic-related genes and alkaline phosphatase activity were significantly increased in irradiated groups.

Abstract
Proliferation of osteoblasts is essential for maturation and mineralization of bone matrix. Ossification, the natural phase of bone-forming and hardening is a carefully regulated phase where deregulation of this process may result in insufficient or excessive bone mineralization or ectopic calcification. Osteoblasts can also be differentiated into osteocytes, populating short interconnecting passages within the bone matrix. Over the past few decades, we have seen a significant improvement in awareness and techniques using photobiomodulation (PBM) to stimulate cell function. One of the applications of PBM is the promotion of osteoblast proliferation and maturation. PBM research results on osteoblasts showed increased mitochondrial ATP production, increased osteoblast activity and proliferation, increased and pro-osteoblast expression in the presence of red and NIR radiation. Osteocyte differentiation was also accomplished using blue and green light, showing that different light parameters have various signalling effects. The current review addresses osteoblast function and control, a new understanding of PBM on osteoblasts and its therapeutic impact using various parameters to optimize osteoblast function that may be clinically important.

Abstract
This in vivo study investigated whether the bioactivity of anodizing coating, produced by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO), on mini-plate in femur fracture could be improved with the association of photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy. From the 20 ovariectomized Wistar female rats, 8 were used for model characterization, and the remaining 12 were divided into four groups according to the use of PBM therapy by diode laser (808 nm; power: 100 mW; energy: 6.0 J; energy density: 212 J/cm2; power density: 3.5 W/cm2) and the type of mini-plate surface (commercially pure titanium mini-plate -cpTi- and PEO-treated mini-plate) as follow: cpTi; PEO; cpTi/PBM; and PEO/PBM. After 60 days of surgery, fracture healing underwent microstructural, bone turnover, histometric, and histologic adjacent muscle analysis. Animals of groups with PEO and PBM showed greater fracture healing than cpTi control group under histometric and microstructural analysis (P < 0.05); however, bone turnover was just improved in PBM's groups (P < 0.05). there was no difference between cpTi and PEO without PBM (P > 0.05). Adjacent muscle analysis showed no metallic particles or muscle alterations in all groups. PEO and PBM are effective strategies for bone repair in fractures, however their association does not provide additional advantages.

Abstract
A present, photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) effectiveness in enhancing bone regeneration in bone defects grafted with or without biomaterials is unclear. This systematic review (PROSPERO, ref. CRD 42019148959) aimed to critically appraise animal in vivo published data and present the efficacy of PBMT and its potential synergistic effects on grafted bone defects. MEDLINE, CCCT, Scopus, Science Direct, Google Scholar, EMBASE, EBSCO were searched, utilizing the following keywords: bone repair; low-level laser therapy; LLLT; light emitting diode; LEDs; photobiomodulation therapy; in vivo animal studies, bone substitutes, to identify studies between 1994 and 2019. After applying the eligibility criteria, 38 papers included where the results reported according to "PRISMA." The results revealed insufficient and incomplete PBM parameters, however, the outcomes with or without biomaterials have positive effects on bone healing. In conclusion, in vivo animal studies with a standardized protocol to elucidate the effects of PBMT on biomaterials are required initially prior to clinical studies.

Abstract
Background: Lasers are widely used in medicine in soft and hard tissue surgeries and biostimulation. Studies found in literature typically compare the effects of single-wavelength lasers on tissues or cell cultures. In our study, we used a diode laser capable of emitting three components of visible light (640 nm, red; 520 nm, green; 450 nm, blue) and combining them in a single beam. The aim of the study was to assess the effects of laser radiation in the visible spectrum on tissue in vitro, depending on the wavelength and pulse width. Methods: All irradiations were performed using the same output power (1.5 W). We used various duty cycles: 10, 50, 80 and 100% with 100 Hz frequency. Maximum superficial temperature, rate of temperature increase and lesion depth were investigated. Results: Maximum superficial temperature was observed for 450 + 520 nm irradiation (100% duty cycle). The highest rate of increase of temperature was noted for 450 + 520 nm (100% duty cycle). Maximum lesion depth was observed in case of three-wavelength irradiation (450 + 520 + 640 nm) for 100, 80 and 50% duty cycles. Conclusions: The synergistic effect of two-wavelength (450 + 520 nm) irradiation was observed in case of maximum temperature measurement. The deepest depth of lesion was noted after three-wavelength irradiation (450 + 520 + 640 nm).

Abstract
For the problems in the research on differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), such as poor differentiation tendency and low differentiation efficiency, a novel photo-crosslinked extracellular matrix (ECM) inspired double network hydrogel that composed of poly(γ-glutamic acid) (γ-PGA) hydrogel and Fe3+ ligand coordination was designed and manufactured. Compared with those traditional γ-PGA based hydrogels, the introduction of Fe3+ significantly enhanced the mechanical properties of the hydrogel and accelerated the chondrogenesis efficiency of BMSCs chondrogenesis. The experimental results confirmed that the mechanical properties of hydrogel enhanced by the introduction of metal ions Fe3+ could promote BMSCs proliferation, induce cartilage-specific gene expression, and increase secretion of hydroxyproline (HYP) and glycosaminoglycan (GAG). As a result, this method could promote chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs, accelerate the regeneration of cartilage, and was prospective to be conducive to the research work of cartilage defect repair. Thus, the mechanically enhanced γ-PGA hydrogel scaffold by Fe3+ could mediate BMSCs differentiation and provide a scientific and theoretical basis for research and development of biomedical materials on cartilage tissue engineering field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is an incapacitating disease with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc degenerative changes in patients. Despite several research attempts to find a definitive treatment, there is no evidence of a permanent solution. The objective of the current study was to observe the role of 660 nm diode laser in the differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) to fibroblasts and chondrocytes. STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS After irradiation, the morphology, viability, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) proliferation of the ADSCs were analyzed at different time intervals. The differentiation of ADSCs toward fibroblastic and chondrogenic phenotypes was supported using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence at 1- and 2-week post-irradiation. RESULTS More than 90% of viable cells were observed in all experimental groups, with an increase in ATP proliferation. Flow cytometry analyses and immunofluorescence demonstrated the presence of chondrogenic and fibroblastic cell surface markers at 1- and 2-week post-irradiation. CONCLUSION This study has demonstrated methods to induce the differentiation of ADSCs toward fibroblastic and chondrogenic phenotypes with a 660 nm diode laser. The study also proposes a future alternative method of treatment for patients with degenerative TMJ disc disorders and presents a positive prospect in the application of photobiomodulation and ADSCs in the treatment of degenerative TMJ disc.

Abstract
Objective: In professional sports activities, the search for increased performance is constant. Electrophysical agents, including photobiomodulation (PBM), have been used in the sports context to accelerate postworkout recovery, prevent injuries, and even to improve performance. This study aims to investigate the effects of infrared laser (904 nm) on skeletal muscle gene expression of performance-related proteins of rats submitted to a chronic resistance training protocol. Materials and methods: Male Wistar rats (n = 40), weighing ±300 g were divided into four groups: sedentary control (CT, n = 10); irradiated control (CTL, n = 10); exercised not irradiated (EX, n = 10); exercised irradiated (EXL, n = 10). To assess the performance, the maximum carrying test was adapted and applied 72 h prior the training and 72 h after the last exercise session. The vertical weight climbing protocol was adapted for resistance training 3 × per week with 48 h interval between each session: first week adaptation, second week 25% of body weight (BW), third week 50% BW, fourth week 75% BW, and fifth week 100% BW. Animals were irradiated before exercise on hind paws 50 sec each, with infrared laser 904 nm 5 days per week, during 4 weeks, 9 J per leg in a total of 18 J energy per day. Results: The EXL performed more climbing (7.1 ± 0.91) compared to EX (4.4 ± 0.63). PBM promoted increased expression of lactate dehydrogenase enzyme, mammalian target of rapamycin protein, and androgen receptor (p < 0.05) but not the myosin heavy chain (p = 0.43). Conclusions: PBM therapy increases the expression of performance-related muscle mass gain genes besides improving the resistance training performance.

Abstract
The present study evaluated bone marrow aspirate (BMA) and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on bone healing. It was created critical-size defects (CSD) of 5 mm diameter in rat calvaria of 64 rats. Animals were randomly divided into four groups: Control (blood clot), BMA (coagulated BMA), LLLT (laser irradiation and blood clot), and BMA/LLLT (laser irradiation and coagulated BMA). Euthanasia was performed at 15 or 30 days postoperative. Immunohistochemical reactions were performed to identify vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), runt-related transcription factor-2 (Runx2), bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), osteocalcin (OCN), and osteopontin (OPN). The markers were quantified, and data were statistically analyzed. Groups BMA/LLLT and LLLT presented significantly higher VEGF expression than group control. Group BMA/LLLT presented a significantly higher expression of PCNA than all experimental groups. Groups BMA and BMA/LLLT presented significantly higher expression of BMP-2 than all experimental groups. Groups LLLT and BMA/LLLT presented significantly higher expression of OPN than groups control and BMA. Groups LLLT, BMA, and BMA/LLLT presented a significantly higher expression of OCN than group control. It can be concluded that the association of BMA and LLLT enhanced bone healing by improving expression of VEGF, PCNA, Runx2, BMP-2, OPN, and OCN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tissue engineering is one treatment to regenerate bone . Stem cell proliferation or differentiation can be stimulated by adjunctive approaches like photobiomodulation. Some studies suggested that, photodynamic therapy with low concentration of photosensitizers can stimulate cell differentiation as a photobiomodulation approach. METHODS Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell was isolated and then cultured in sterile medium. Two photosensitizer drugs as 5- aminolevulenic acid (1 mM) (5-ALA) and Methylene blue (1μM) (MB) were used in incubation culture media. In order to activate the photosensitizers, 630 and 660 nm wavelengths were irradiated with 1 J/cm2 energy density, respectively. Cell viability was assessed using MTT assay before and after laser irradiation, and also Alizarin red histologic test was used for calcium nodule formation. RESULTS performing the MTT test before irradiation showed that, the optimum concentrations were 1 mM for 5-ALA and 1μM for MB that were optimized. After laser irradiation, ALA group showed no osseous differentiation. In contrast, there was a significant calcium nodule formation in MB group compared with the control one. CONCLUSIONS Photodynamic therapy with low photosensitizer concentration and low doses of laser energy density may improve osteogenic differentiation. Accordingly, MB had stimulatory effect on bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells. However, 5-ALA did not show this effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Photobiomodulation (PBM) describes the influence of light irradiation on biological tissues. Laser light in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum has been shown to mitigate pain, reduce inflammation, and promote wound healing. The cellular mechanism that mediates PBM's effects is generally accepted to be at the site of the mitochondria, leading to an increased flux through the electron transport chain and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. Moreover, PBM has been demonstrated to reduce oxidative stress through an increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sequestering enzymes. The aim of the study is to determine whether these PBM-induced effects expedite or interfere with the intended stem cell differentiation to the adipogenic lineage. STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS To determine the effects of 1064 nm laser irradiation (fluence of 8.8-26.4 J/cm2 ) on human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) undergoing adipogenic differentiation, the ATP and ROS levels, and adipogenic markers were quantitatively measured. RESULTS At a low fluence (8.8 J/cm2 ) the ATP increase was essentially negligible, whereas a higher fluence induced a significant increase. In the laser-stimulated cells, PBM over time decreased the ROS level compared with the non-treated control group and significantly reduced the extent of adipogenesis. A reduction in the ROS level was correlated with a diminished lipid accumulation, reduced production of adipose-specific genetic markers, and delayed the chemically intended adipogenesis. CONCLUSION We characterized the use of NIR light exposure to modulate adipogenesis. Both the ATP and ROS levels in hMSCs responded to different energy densities. The current study is expected to contribute significantly to the growing field of PBM as well as stem cell tissue engineering by demonstrating the wavelength-dependent responses of hMSC differentiation.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Currently, various scaffolds with immobilized cells are widely used in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, the physiological activity and cell viability in such constructs might be impaired due to a lack of oxygen and nutrients. Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a promising method of preconditioning cells to increase their metabolic activity and to activate proliferation or differentiation. AIM Investigation of the potential of PBM for stimulation of cell activities in hydrogels. APPROACH Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) isolated from human gingival mucosa were encapsulated in modified fibrin hydrogels with different thicknesses and concentrations. Constructs with cells were subjected to a single-time exposure to red (630 nm) and near-infrared (IR) (840 nm) low-intensity irradiation. After 3 days of cultivation, the viability and physiological activity of the cells were analyzed using confocal microscopy and a set of classical tests for cytotoxicity. RESULTS The cell viability in fibrin hydrogels depended both on the thickness of the hydrogels and the concentration of gel-forming proteins. The PBM was able to improve cell viability in hydrogels. The most pronounced effect was achieved with near-IR irradiation at the 840-nm wavelength. CONCLUSIONS PBM using near-IR light can be applied for stimulation of MSCs metabolism and proliferation in hydrogel-based constructs with thicknesses up to 3 mm.

Abstract
Increasing interest has been observed in the use of photobiomodulation (PBM) to enhance the proliferation of stem cells and induce their differentiation. The effects of PBM at two different wavelengths (635 and 809 nm) with three different energy densities (0.5, 1 and 2 J/cm2) on the osteogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC) were investigated. Cell viability and proliferation were evaluated by MTT and Alamar Blue assays. Osteoblast differentiation were assessed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, Alizarin red staining and reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for the expression of collagen type I (COL1A), ALP and osteocalcin. 635 nm and 809 nm laser irradiation had no effect on the cell viability on days 7 and 14, except for 0.5 J/cm2 group at 14th day after 635 nm irradiation (p < 0.05). Cell proliferation was not changed significantly. Mineralization was increased significantly in 809 nm laser groups but no enhancement was detected in the osteogenic differentiation by ALP activity and gene expression results. In 0.5 and 1 J/cm2 groups, ALP and COL1A expressions were down regulated at day 7 after 809 nm laser exposure. These results suggest that PBM may alter osteogenic differentiation of ADSC and increase mineralization but further investigation is needed to define adequate parameters.

Abstract
Background: Adipose tissue is the main energy storage tissue in the body. Its catabolic and anabolic responses depend on several factors, such as nutritional status, metabolic profile, and hormonal signaling. There are few studies addressing the effects of laser photobiomodulation (PBM) on adipose tissue and results are controversial. Objective: Our purpose was to investigate the metabolic effects of PBM on adipose tissue from Wistar rats supplemented or not with caffeine. Materials and methods: Wistar rats were divided into four groups: control (CTL), laser-treated [CTL (L)], caffeine (CAF), and caffeine+PBM [CAF (L)]. Blood was extracted for quantification of triglyceride and cholesterol levels and white adipose tissues were collected for analysis. We evaluated gene expression in the adipose tissue for the leptin receptor, lipase-sensitive hormone, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and beta adrenergic receptor. Results: We demonstrated that the low-level laser irradiation was able to increase the feed intake of the animals and the relative mass of the adipose tissue in the CTL (L) group compared with CTL. Laser treatment also increases serum triglycerides [CTL = 46.99 ± 5.87; CTL (L) = 57.46 ± 14.38; CAF = 43.98 ± 5.17; and CAF (L) = 56.9 ± 6.12; p = 0.007] and total cholesterol (CTL = 70.62 ± 6.80; CTL (L) = 79.41 ± 13.07; CAF = 71.01 ± 5.52; and CAF (L) = 79.23 ± 6.881; p = 0.003). Conclusions: Laser PBM decreased gene expression of the studied genes in the adipose tissue, indicating that PBM is able to block the catabolic responses of this tissue. Interestingly, the CAF (L) and CAF animals presented the same CLT (L) phenotype, however, without increasing the feed intake and the relative weight of the adipose tissue. The description of these phenomena opens a new perspective for the study of the action of low-level laser in adipose tissue.
