Effects of photobiomodulation therapy on pulmonary inflammation in chronic asthma: Dosimetric study in an experimental model
cells, indicating a marked immunomodulatory effect. In addition, PBMT reduced mucus production and collagen deposition in the airways, with the most pronounced effects observed at radiant energies of 3 and 5 J. These findings demonstrate that photobiomodulation therapy, particularly at intermediate radiant energy doses, effectively modulates immune responses, attenuates airway remodelling, and reduces chronic pulmonary inflammation in experimental asthma.
