Paper Abstract
The aim of this paper is to show relationship first, between light parameters
and biostimulation (metabolism regulation effect), and second, between physiological
conditions of cells at the moment of irradiation and stimulation effects magnitude.
These studies have been performed on cellular level, and as a model, a culture of
procaryotic cells Escherichia coil WP2 was used. As a criterion for the division
rate of E. coil WP2 cells was measured.
There is no grounds to believe the existence of a single universal biostimula
tion mechanism active on molecular, cellular, and organism levels. On the other
hand, undoubtedly there are many connections between mechanisms of light stimulation
on different levels. For example, as concerning light stimulation on organism level
(i.e., low-power laser therapy), there exist dependences of therapeutic effects on
parameters of light (fluence, intensity) (see reviews: Karu, 1990 a, b). As far as
mechanism of biostimulation is concerned, we will show in this paper that the stimulation
effects are connected with certain chromophores (primary photoacceptors) in
a cell.
