Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we focused on the characteristics of a 405 nm pulse laser and the effect on calcification was investigated. At first, we check the effect of laser irradiation on calcified cell line, we obtained the result that calcification was affected by laser irradiation and elemental analysis showed a decrease in Ca content. We also showed that cell survival was affected by laser irradiation. However, the effect of the laser irradiation was unstable, and we thought that it was necessary to improve the experimental system including laser output. We also planned experiments using the rat aorta, but we found that we could not induce mineralization on the intima of the blood vessel with low protein / high adenine diet.
