Imaging of Ultra-Weak Photon Emission in a Rheumatoid Arthritis Mouse Model

Abstract: Ultra-weak photon emission (UPE) of a living system received scientific attention because of its potential for monitoring increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this study, a highly sensitive cryogenic charge-coupled device (CCD) camera was used to monitor in a RA mouse model the photon emission both without and with luminol. For that purpose, arthritis was induced in mice utilizing a repeated co-administration of type II collagen with lipopolysac… Show more

“…Furthermore, in the case of cancer cells, the cellular toxins accumulated during the years, and often leading to deposits of cellular debris in the tissues (e.g. arteriosclerosis in blood vessels), induce the increased emission of biophotons [27,28]. [28,29] developed a new highly sensitive analytic photomultiplier system allowing for the first time to measure the spectrum of ultraweak photon emission in individual human cells.…”
