Objective: We examined the effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) on stereological parameters, and gene expression of Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), osteocalcin, and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) in repairing tissue of tibial bone defect in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes mellitus (TIDM) in rats during catabolic response of fracture healing.

Background Data: There were conflicting results regarding the efficacy of PBM on bone healing process in healthy and diabetic animals.

Materials And Methods: Forty-eight rats have been distributed into four groups: group 1 (healthy control, no TIDM and no PBM), group 2 (healthy test, no TIDM and PBM), group 3 (diabetic control, TIDM and no PBM), and group 4 (diabetic test, no TIDM and PBM). TIDM was induced in the groups 3 and 4. A partial bone defect in tibia was made in all groups. The bone defects of groups second and fourth were irradiated by a laser (890 nm, 80 Hz, 1.5 J/cm). Thirty days after the surgery, all bone defects were extracted and were submitted to stereological examination and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).

Results: PBM significantly increased volumes of total callus, total bone, bone marrow, trabecular bone, and cortical bone, and the numbers of osteocytes and osteoblasts of callus in TIDM rats compared to those of callus in diabetic control. In addition, TIDM increased RUNX2, and osteocalcin in callus of tibial bone defect compared to healthy group. PBM significantly decreased osteocalcin gene expression in TIDM rats.

Conclusions: PBM significantly increased many stereological parameters of bone repair in an STZ-induced TIDM during catabolic response of fracture healing. Further RT-PCR test demonstrated that bone repair was modulated in diabetic rats during catabolic response of fracture healing by significant increase in mRNA expression of RUNX2, and osteocalcin compared to healthy control rats. PBM also decreased osteocalcin mRNA expression in TIDM rats.

In this preclinical investigation, we examined the effects of combining preconditioned diabetic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) and photobiomodulation (PBM) on a model of infected ischemic delayed healing wound (injury), (IIDHWM) in rats with type I diabetes (TIDM). During the stages of wound healing, we examined multiple elements such as stereology, macrophage polarization, and the mRNA expression levels of stromal cell-derived factor (SDF)-1α, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), hypoxia-induced factor 1α (HIF-1α), and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) to evaluate proliferation and inflammation. The rats were grouped into: (1) control group; (2) diabetic-stem cells were transversed into the injury site; (3) diabetic-stem cells were transversed into the injury site then the injury site exposed to PBM; (4) diabetic stem cells were preconditioned with PBM and implanted into the wound; (5) diabetic stem cells were preconditioned with PBM and transferred into the injury site, then the injury site exposed additional PBM.

This investigation tried to evaluate the combined and solo effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) and conditioned medium derived from human adipose tissue-derived stem cells (h-ASC-CM) on the inflammatory and proliferative phases of an ischemic infected delayed healing wound model (IIDHWM) in rats with type I diabetes mellitus (TIDM). The present investigation consisted of four groups: group 1 served as the control, group 2 treated with h-ASC-CM, group 3 underwent PBM treatment, and group 4 received a combination of h-ASC-CM and PBM. Clinical and laboratory assessments were conducted on days 4 and 8.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) and conditioned medium (CM) derived from human adipose-derived stem cells (h-ASCs), both individually and in combination, on the maturation stage of an ischemic infected delayed healing wound model (IIDHWM) in type I diabetic (TIDM) rats.

Methods: The study involved the extraction of h-ASCs from donated fat, assessment of their immunophenotypic markers, cell culture, and extraction and concentration of CM from cultured 1 × 10^6 h-ASCs. TIDM was induced in 24 male adult rats, divided into four groups: control, CM group, PBM group (80 Hz, 0.

Diabetic wounds are categorized by chronic inflammation, leading to the development of diabetic foot ulcers, which cause amputation and death. Herewith, we examined the effect of photobiomodulation (PBM) plus allogeneic diabetic adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ad-ADS) on stereological parameters and expression levels of interleukin (IL)-1ß and microRNA (miRNA)-146a in the inflammatory (day 4) and proliferation (day 8) stages of wound healing in an ischemic infected (with 2×10 colony-forming units of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) delayed healing wound model (IIDHWM) in type I diabetic (TIDM) rats. There were five groups of rats: group 1 control (C); group 2 (CELL) in which rat wounds received 1×10 ad-ADS; group 3 (CL) in which rat wounds received the ad-ADS and were subsequently exposed to PBM(890 nm, 80 Hz, 3.

Herein, we attempted to evaluate the therapeutic potential of photobiomodulation (PBM) and curcumin-loaded iron nanoparticles (CUR), alone and in combination, on wound closure rate (WCR), microbial flora by measuring colony-forming units (CFUs), the stereological and biomechanical properties of repairing wounds in the maturation stage of the wound healing course in an ischemic infected delayed healing wound model (IIDHWM) of type I diabetic (TIDM) rats. There were four groups: group 1 was the control, group 2 received CUR, rats in group 3 were exposed to PBM (80 Hz, 890 nm, and 0.2 J/cm), and rats in group 4 received both PBM and CUR (PBM + CUR).
