Introduction Threshold doses of electromagnetic radiation can initiate necrosis and apoptosis in cells. The purpose of this study was to evaluate cellular apoptosis and necrosis immediately (t0) and 24 hours (t24) after irradiation with different doses of coherent light (laser) or non-coherent light (LED). Methods CHO-K1 lineage cells were irradiated with laser (810nm) or LED (945±20nm), with 24mW, contact area of 1cm2 and doses of 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50J/cm2 for 300, 660, 960, 1230 and 1620s, respectively, at both wavelengths. Cells were evaluated by fluorescence microscopy, differentiating viable, apoptotic and necrotic cells immediately and 24 hours after irradiation. Results The number of necrotic cells at t0 was higher in the LED 40 and 50J/cm2 groups (86±14 and 84±16% respectively, p <0.05), than in the 10 and 20J/cm2 laser (5±2 and 5±3%, p<0.05) and LED (5±3 and 4±1%, p<0.05) conditions. At t24, the LED 40J/cm2 (80±20%, p<0.05) group also showed more necrosis than the control and lower dose groups (laser 10, 20, and 30J/cm2 percentage of 6±4, 10±3 and 7±3%, p<0.05; LED 10 and 20J/cm2 percentage of 3±1 and 17±10%, p<0.05). A decrease in apoptotic cells was observed in the laser group with doses of 10, 40, and 50J/cm2 (6±4, 3±1 and 1±1% respectively, not significant), as well as in the LED 40J/cm2 (2±2%, not significant) group versus control. The cells had a higher percentage of apoptosis cells in the control group and with laser doses of 10 and 30J/cm2 (percentage of 20±1 and 20±4%, not significant), while only the LED 40J/cm2 (10±10%, not significant) had a lower percentage compared the control group. Conclusion Laser or LED stimulation promoted an increase in cell necrosis in a high energy density condition as characterized in a dose-dependent inhibition therapy. Laser or LED infrared irradiation in low doses (up to 20J/cm2) reduced the percentage of apoptosis in CHO-K1 cells, while high doses (30J/cm2) elevated apoptosis. (AU) | |
