  • * A study tested the effects of two laser wavelengths (650 nm and 870 nm) on HT29 colorectal cancer cells, finding that 870 nm had no significant effect while 650 nm resulted in increased cell proliferation in culture.
  • * Interestingly, when HT29 tumors in mice were treated with the 650 nm laser, tumor progression slowed down, highlighting differences in how LLLT affects cancer cells in lab cultures versus living organisms.
