Effect of erythrocytes in hypercholesterolemia rabbits irradiation by low level 650 nm laser / 国际生物医学工程杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the structure and function changes of erythrocyte in hypercholesterolemia rabbits that treated with irradiation in auricle root by low level 650 nm laser.Methods Sixteen male rabbits were selected to establish the model animal of hypercholesterolemia,successful model rabbits were divided into 2 groups (model and treatment groups),6 rabbits per group,and 6 normal rabbits were selected as control group.650 nm laser of 100 mW were given in auricle root in rabbits of treatment group for 16 weeks (6 d one week,twice a day,30 min one time).Blood from ear vein was collected every 4 weeks to perform routine and biochemical blood examination,and one-drop blood test under microscope was used for blood accumulation observation.Results Total number of red blood cells of treatment group decreased,while model group showed an increasing trend than normal group (P＜0.05).Hemoglobin in three groups were lower than other two groups (P＞0.05).Hematocrit (HCT) in treatment group were lower than that in normal group,while HCT in model group were higher than that in other two groups and showed a higher aggregation degree also.Less than model group,treatment group showed less aggregation degree but with higher total bilirubin.Conclusions Low level laser of 650 nm showed an effect on total number of erythrocytes,HCT and red blood cells aggregation,high dose of laser might be injury for erythrocytes and lead to total bilirubin increasement.
