| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Phototherapy has been used to control the inflammation or treat circadian rhythm disorders. However, the mechanism of phototherapy is still unclear. We investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of phototherapy on the systemic inflammatory response syndrome using the analysis of behavior rhythm and measuring cytokines production. While phototherapy had no effect on behavior rhythm after the systemic inflammatory response syndrome, green or red LED exposure showed significant decreases of the inflammatory cytokines production, but inducing anti-inflammatory cytokine. Based on these data, specific wavelength of light might play an important role in anti-inflammatory activities.
