- W2077770006 abstract "Over half of solar energy consists of near-infrared anda wide range of preventative mechanisms have been evolutionarily maintained inorganisms to protect against effects of near-infrared. However, the biologicaleffects of near-infrared have not been investigated in detail. Despite the essential requirement of a water-filterto imitate solar near-infrared filtered by atmospheric water, previous studies used near-infrared resources withouta water-filter or a cooling system. With these methods, near-infrared energy isprimarily absorbed in the superficial tissues, thus these approaches are unableto sufficiently evaluate the biological effects of solar near-infrared thatreaches human tissue. We have elucidated that near-infrared (1100 - 1800 nm together with awater-filter that excludes wavelengths 1400 - 1500 nm) non-thermally affects theskin into the deeper tissues. The biological effects of near-infrared have both beneficial applicationsand deleterious effects. Near-infrared induces collagen and elastin stimulation, which achieves skin rejuvenationand skin tightening, and induces long-lasting vasodilation that may preventvasospasm and be beneficial for ischemic disorders. Near-infrared also relaxes and weakens dystonic and hypertrophicmuscles to reduce wrinkles and myalgia. Nearinfrared isan essential tool in cancer detection andimaging, and induces drastic non-thermal DNA damage ofmitotic cells, which may be beneficial for treating cancer. Activation of stem cells by near-infrared may be useful in regenerative medicine. However,continuous near-infrared exposure induces photoaging and potentiallyphotocarcinogenesis. Humans have protectivemechanisms against near-infrared onmultiple levels, including perspiration, blisters, vasodilation,hair, skin, adipose tissue, and cotton or wool clothing. Further protection should be considered,as biological effects of near-infrared are significant, and standard sunscreensand glasses cannot sufficiently block near-infrared. This paper reviews theeffects of near-infrared and introduces the new findings of near-infrared froma biological point of view." @default.
