TL;DR: Antimicrobial Photodynamic therapy (aPDT) had been recently proposed to combat clinically relevant biofilms such as dental biofilmms, ventilator associated pneumonia, chronic wound infections, oral candidiasis, and chronic rhinosinusitis and a brief section provides suggestions for future research.

TL;DR: An updated overview of the findings from the new studies over the past 5 years is provided, including the efficacy of antimicrobial blue light inactivation of different microbes, its mechanism of action, synergism of antim antibiotic blue light with other angents, its effect on host cells and tissues, the potential development of resistance to antimicrobialblue light by microbes, and a novel interstitial delivery approach of antimacterial blue light.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of delivering four different wavelengths at the same dose (3.5 J/cm2) five times (every two days) on human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) cultured in osteogenic medium over three weeks were examined.

TL;DR: It is concluded that 980nm affects temperature-gated calcium ion channels, while 810nm largely affects mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase.

TL;DR: The data suggest that blue/green light inhibits proliferation by activating TRPV1, and increasing calcium and ROS.
