Near Infra-Red light, typically in the wavelength range of 700 to 1000 nanometers has the ability to penetrate deeper than visible light and elicit biological responses at the cellular level. Here we merge this with the advanced science of negentropic ‘plasma’ to create a deeper more effective and negentropic effect. A unique fusion that can create profound benefits.
Cytochrome c oxidase, a key enzyme in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, absorbs NIR light which leads to enhanced mitochondrial activity, resulting in increased production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the cellular currency of energy.
This enhanced cellular energy in turn activates a range of biological processes, including cell proliferation and differentiation, which are crucial for tissue regeneration.
This enhanced energetic creation may be able to possibly
- Stimulate Hematopoietic Stem Cells: These are the stem cells in bone marrow responsible for producing blood cells. NIR light may help in proliferating these cells or aiding their differentiation into various types of blood cells.
- Enhance Mesenchymal Stem Cell Activity: These stem cells contribute to the generation of bone, cartilage, and fat. Activating these cells could help in the regeneration and repair of bone tissue itself.
- Reduce Inflammation and Pain: NIR has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects, which could be beneficial in treating conditions like osteoporosis or other degenerative bone diseases.
The potential clinical applications of NIR for bone marrow regeneration are vast:
- Treatment of Bone Diseases: Conditions such as osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, where bone degeneration occurs, might be amenable to treatments involving NIR light.
- Enhancement of Bone Healing: Accelerating bone healing in fractures or after surgical interventions could be another application, reducing recovery times and improving outcomes.
- Management of Hematological Disorders: Diseases involving bone marrow, such as leukemia, might see new therapeutic approaches using NIR to support bone marrow health or recovery after chemotherapy.
