Low-intensive laser therapy was carried out on 550 women aged 18 to 33 with syndrome of polysystemic disorders at chronic genital inflammations.Efficiency of frequency movement (301 patients) and stable regime (249 patients) of endovaginal low-intensive laser therapy has been studied by means of complex clinical, functional, instrumental, and laboratory examinations. Movement regime of laser application proved to stimulate sexual visceral reactions improving the state of female organism in case of syndrome of polysystemic disorders. Normalization of the sexualfunction as a result of movement regime in endovaginal laser therapy can be considered as pathogenic influence directed on normalizing and supporting physiological nervous-reflex connections of genital organs with other organs and systems of womens organisms.

Introduction: The widespread application of lasers in medicine, especially in the treatment of diseases implies more investigations to understand the precious molecular mechanism of the laser effect on the human body. In the present study, the prominent role of HERC6 in response to CO2 Laser therapy of human skin is investigated. Methods: The numbers of 16 gene expression profiles before and after the treatment with the CO2 laser are downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) are analyzed to find the significant DEGs. Gene ontology analysis revealed that HERC6 and a set of its neighbors played a significant role in response to laser application. Results: The expression changes of 52 significant DEGs were compared via heat map analysis and 27 significant DEGs were introduced as the critical genes which are involved in response to laser irradiation. "Thymidylate kinase activity" among 9 clusters of biological terms was highlighted as an important biological process related to the identified DEGs. HERC2 was proposed as a critical DEG which was related to several essential cellular processes in response to laser application. Conclusion: The findings from the present study indicate that HERC6 and the numbers of its first neighbors are involved in the essential cellular response to laser therapy of human skin.

Objective. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the effectiveness of laser application in temporomandibular joint disorder. Methods. PubMed, SCOPUS, Science Direct, Web of Science, and Google Scholar electronic databases were searched systematically with restricting the languages to only English and year (January 2001 to March 2020), and studies were selected based on the inclusion criteria. Study quality and publication bias were assessed by using the Robvis, a software package of R statistical software. Results. This systematic review included 32 studies (1172 patients) based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Most of the studies reported significant reduction of pain by the use of the laser during TMD treatment. Two-thirds of the study (78.13%) found a better outcome comparing with conventional one. According to Robvis, 84.4% of the studies were high methodological studies with low risk of bias. Conclusion. TMD patients suffer with continuous pain for long time even after conventional treatment. Laser therapy shows a promising outcome of pain reduction for TMD patients. Therefore, laser therapy can be recommended for the TMD patients’ better outcome. This trial is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42020177562).

Low level laser application in orthodontics attempts to accelerate the induced orthodontic movement and to dissipate the dental discomfort during treatment. The recognition of its biological foundation is a fundamental issue to understand the effect of all tissues involved in the irradiated zone. There have been research findings on the cell proliferation and empowerment of cell functions, promotion of bone remodeling, and decreasing of the local swelling and pain during orthodontic treatments. However, the positive results of the laser application on cells involved in the orthodontic movement have not widely been investigated. Literature indicates a lack of research finding on the effect of low laser therapy on the dentin-pulp complex, which demands randomized controlled trials. For these reasons, the aim of this paper attempts to compile the main publications done regarding the effect of low level laser therapy on dental pulp tissue.

The results of treatment of chronic endometritis in 92 women by vaginal and intrauterine infrared laser irradiation were studied. The diagnosis has been verified by endometrial biopsy. If chronic endometritis is associated with adnexitis, the treatment was begun from vaginal laser irradiation. On the next cycle intrauterine laser therapy was performed. In 40% of the patients pathogenic microflora was revealed, and in these cases the antibacterial therapy have been carried out. All women showed clinical improvement after laser therapy. The control biopsy of endometrium was performed in 23 months after the treatment. In 84,8% women the patterns of inflammation were not revealed. In 8,7% cases have been found residual effects of the inflammation.We suppose the complex vaginal and intrauterine infrared laser therapy combined with antioxydants and gestagenes to be an effective method of treatment of chronic endometritis.

Abstract In the elderly population, pathological inflammation has been associated with ageing-associated diseases. The term ‘inflammageing’, which was used for the first time by Franceschi and co-workers in 2000, is associated with the chronic, low-grade, subclinical inflammatory processes coupled to biological ageing. The source of these inflammatory processes is debated. The senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) has been proposed as the main origin of inflammageing. The SASP is characterised by the release of inflammatory cytokines, elevated activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, altered regulation of acetylcholine (ACh) nicotinic receptors, and abnormal NAD+ metabolism. Therefore, SASP may be ‘druggable’ by small molecule therapeutics targeting those emerging molecular targets. It has been shown that inflammageing is a hallmark of various cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, hypertension, and adverse cardiac remodelling. Therefore, the pathomechanism involving SASP activation via the NLRP3 inflammasome; modulation of NLRP3 via α7 nicotinic ACh receptors; and modulation by senolytics targeting other proteins have gained a lot of interest within cardiovascular research and drug development communities. In this review, which offers a unique view from both clinical and preclinical target-based drug discovery perspectives, we have focused on cardiovascular inflammageing and its molecular mechanisms. We have outlined the mechanistic links between inflammageing, SASP, interleukin (IL)-1β, NLRP3 inflammasome, nicotinic ACh receptors, and molecular targets of senolytic drugs in the context of cardiovascular diseases. We have addressed the ‘druggability’ of NLRP3 and nicotinic α7 receptors by small molecules, as these proteins represent novel and exciting targets for therapeutic interventions targeting inflammageing in the cardiovascular system and beyond.
