Title: Near-infrared electromagnetic modification of cellular steady-state membrane potentials
Inventor: BORNSTEIN ERIC
IPC: A61N5/067
Filed: 2007-12-12
Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for applying near-infrared optical energies and dosimetries to alter the bioenergetic steady-state trans-membrane and mitochondrial potentials (.DELTA..PSI.-steady) of all irradiated cells through an optical depolarization effect. This depolarization causes a concomitant decrease in the absolute value of the trans-membrane potentials .DELTA..PSI. of the irradiated mitochondrial and plasma membranes. Many cellular anabolic reactions and drug-resistance mechanisms can be rendered less functional and/or mitigated by a decrease in a membrane potential .DELTA..PSI., the affiliated weakening of the proton motive force .DELTA.p, and the associated lowered phosphorylation potential .DELTA.Gp. Within the area of irradiation exposure, the decrease in membrane potentials .DELTA..PSI. will occur in bacterial, fungal and mammalian cells in unison. This membrane depolarization provides the ability to potentiate antimicrobial, antifungal and/or antineoplastic drugs against only targeted undesirable cells.
