Embodiment

[0183] LDOAM Treatment Parameters for In Vitro Adipocyte Assays

[0184] The following parameters indicate that the method according to the invention is applied to human adipocytes under the threshold of thermal injury. Cultured human adipocytes were obtained from Zen-Bio (North Carolina) and used for in vitro experiments. Adipocyte precursor cells (preadipoblasts) were isolated from subcutaneous adipose tissue from elective surgery in healthy non-diabetic donors between 18 and 60 years of age. The preadipoblasts were isolated by centrifugation following collagenase treatment and then cultured as vegetative precursor cells. These cells are then differentiated into adipocytes by media supplemented with adipogenesis and adipogenesis hormones. The process of differentiation of preadipoblasts into adipocytes is disclosed in US 6,153,432.

Abstract

Optical methods and devices are provided for the reduction of the lipid content of adipocytes without significant heat or intolerable adverse effect on the cells and their surrounding tissues. The optical method and device can be used to irradiate adipose tissue through the skin with non-thermal and non-destructive effects by application of near infrared (NIR) irradiation at selected wave bands in selected ranges to affect modulation of innate enzymatic processes involved in lipolysis, lipogenesis, leptin secretion, adiponectin secretion, and / or glucose absorption.
