Anti‐Inflammatory effects of low‐level laser therapy (660 nm) in the early phase in carrageenan‐induced pleurisy in rat

Abstract

LLLT-660 nm induced an anti-inflammatory effect characterized by inhibition of either total or differential leukocyte influx, exudation, total protein, NO, IL-6, MCP-1, IL-10, and TNF-alpha, in a dose-dependent manner. Under these conditions, laser treatment with 2.1 J was more effective than 0.9 and 4.2 J.
