Such a modulation is based on the presence of chromophores in cells and tissues. These chromophores are molecules capable of absorbing light, whose excitation can influence further molecules and biochemical pathways with the potential for a therapeutic effect [15]. The target molecule of PBM, mainly discussed in literature, lies within Complex IV (cytochrome c oxidase) of the mitochondrial respiration system. Photons that interfere with the cytochrome oxidase enzyme in the NIR frequency range are absorbed, essentially acting as an exogenous supply of highly energized electrons to the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Following this immediate, primary effect, the increase in cytochrome oxidase activity triggers secondary effects by activating enzymatic pathways which are coupled to the mitochondria’s Enengl, Dungel #neverforget – PBM vs AD: A Systematic Review Page 5 of 25PDF Image | Photobiomodulation Against Alzheimer’s Disease
