Our objective was to investigate if low-level laser therapy (LLLT) could improve respiratory function and inhibit tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) release into the diaphragm muscle of rats after an intravenous injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (5 mg/kg). We randomly divided Wistar rats in a control group without LPS injection, and LPS groups receiving either (a) no therapy, (b) four sessions in 24 h with diode Ga-AsI-Al laser of 650 nm and a total dose of 5.2 J/cm2, or (c) an intravenous injection (1.25 mg/kg) of the TNF-alpha inhibitor chlorpromazine (CPZ). LPS injection reduced maximal force by electrical stimulation of diaphragm muscle from 24.15+/-0.87 N in controls, but the addition of LLLT partly inhibited this reduction (LPS only: 15.01+/-1.1 N vs LPS+LLLT: 18.84+/-0.73 N, P<0.05). In addition, this dose of LLLT and CPZ significantly (P<0.05 and P<0.01, respectively) reduced TNF-alpha concentrations in diaphragm muscle when compared to the untreated control group.
我们的目的是研究低强度激光疗法(LLLT)是否能改善呼吸功能,并抑制大鼠静脉注射脂多糖(LPS,5毫克/千克)后肿瘤坏死因子(TNF-α)向膈肌的释放。我们将Wistar大鼠随机分为未注射LPS的对照组,以及接受以下处理的LPS组:(a)不进行治疗;(b)在24小时内进行4次治疗,使用波长650纳米的砷化镓铝二极管激光,总剂量为5.2焦/平方厘米;或(c)静脉注射(1.25毫克/千克)TNF-α抑制剂氯丙嗪(CPZ)。LPS注射使通过电刺激膈肌产生的最大力量从对照组的24.15±0.87牛降低,但添加LLLT部分抑制了这种降低(仅LPS组:15.01±1.1牛,LPS + LLLT组:18.84±0.73牛,P<0.05)。此外,与未治疗的对照组相比,该剂量的LLLT和CPZ分别显著降低了膈肌中TNF-α的浓度(P<0.05和P<0.01)。
