The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of two doses of photobiomodulation (PBM) on inflammatory parameters including cell migration and oxidative stress in carrageenan-induced peritonitis models. Twenty-eight mice were divided into four groups: saline; untreated carrageenan (Cg; inflammation induced); and PMB treatment groups L1 and L5 (inflammation induced with carrageenan followed by laser irradiation at 1 and 5 J/cm2, respectively). After 30 min of inducing inflammation, laser irradiation was administered every hour, for 4 h. Peritoneal fluid was collected for analyses. The total leukocyte number in the peritoneal fluid in L1 (4.33 ± 2.34) and L5 (4.95 ± 2.86) after PBM was lower than that in Cg (10.93 ± 5.15 cells/ml). The average differential count of neutrophils in the Cg was 9.46 ± 4.31 cells/ml, which was higher than that in L1 (3.7 ± 2.08) and L5 (4.94 ± 2.57). Myeloperoxidase activity was also lower in L1 (1.89 ± 0.43) and L5 (4.84 ± 2.62) than in Cg (22.92 ± 4.52 UMPO/ml). Malondialdehyde content was lower in L1 (137.5 ± 12.33) and L5 (169.6 ± 22.77) than in Cg (345.7 ± 65.67 nmol/ml). Glutathione peroxidase concentration was significantly higher in L1 (155.2 ± 12.43) and L5 (145.9 ± 9.585) than in Cg (79.75 ± 9.567 μ/ml). Nitrite concentration was lower in L1 (0.3317 μM ± 0.0669) and L5 (0.2429 μM ± 0.0232) than in Cg (0.8380 μM ± 0.01615). Laser irradiation at 1 and 5 J/cm2 reversed the inflammation (as indicated by neutrophil infiltration and oxidative stress).
