THE RESEARCH
10 years of INSERM - INM partnership
Biolux expertise
From research to people
4 fundamental axes
Various investigations have highlighted the role of photomodulation in cell migration, proliferation and differentiation as well as in the regulation of inflammation.
Published article: Validation of the action of LEDs on the neuritic growth velocity of sensory neurons : under axotomy conditions, the neuritic growth velocity obtained after LED stimulation reached a threshold never equaled in the articles available in the literature.
Transition before the application of stimulation protocols in the clinic; the investigations set up have made it possible to validate on more integrated models, the various results obtained at the cellular scale.
Transfer of knowledge and technology in therapeutic application: creation of professional and home care devices for clinical use.
An international clinical study in collaboration with a Brazilian team has been set up to evaluate the effect of photomodulation on the scars induced by abdominoplasty. This study definitively validates the effect of Biolux technology on the 4 areas of research, all involved in the post-surgical healing process.
