Effect of non-coherent infrared light (LED, λ 945 ± 20 nm) on bone repair in diabetic rats—morphometric and spectral analyses

Abstract

Phototherapy using coherent light (lasers) and non-coherent light (light-emitting diodes (LEDs)) has been investigated for the purpose of biomodulation in biological tissues. Several effects can be expected, including pain moderation, biostimulation of cellular tropism, anti-inflammatory effects, regular circulatory stimulation, and tissue repair. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of LED (λ945 ± 20 nm, 48 mW) therapy on the regeneration process in femoral lesions of rats (Wistar). Seven irradiation sessions were held, with a 48-h interval between sessions. The animals were euthanised 14, 21, and 28 days after surgery. Bone samples were analysed by histomorphometry, micro X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and optical densitometry. The results demonstrated the effective positive influence of low-intensity LED therapy using the near-infrared region on the tissue repair process in diabetic animals, especially in the early stages of repair (14 and 21 days after surgery). It can be concluded that LED therapy positively influences bone formation in the early stages of the bone repair process in non-diabetic and diabetic animals, without causing changes in the optical density and volume of tissue in the final stages. No influence of LED therapy was observed on the percentage of calcium, percentage of phosphorus, Ca/P ratio, or optical mineral density in non-diabetic animals. However, increased mineral concentration was evident in the diabetic animals treated with the LED during the repair process.
