Terahertz Wave Enhances Permeability of the Voltage-Gated Calcium Channel

Yangmei Li et al.

Summary: The dysfunction of voltage-gated calcium channels leading to a deficiency in Ca2+ fluxes is associated with calcium channelopathies such as epilepsy and periodic paralysis. By using resonant terahertz waves, researchers have demonstrated enhanced selectivity and conductance of Ca2+, potentially offering therapeutic interventions in correcting calcium channel deficiencies and inducing apoptosis in tumor cells.

The Effect of Far-Infrared Therapy on the Peritoneal Expression of Glucose Degradation Products in Diabetic Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis

Chia-Ning Chang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of FIR therapy on dialysate GDPs and peritoneal function in diabetic patients on PD. The results showed that FIR therapy decreased GDPs in PD solutions, improved glucose transport rate, and maintained or increased peritoneal adequacy in both diabetic and non-diabetic patients.

CCL5 promotion of bioenergy metabolism is crucial for hippocampal synapse complex and memory formation

Reni Ajoy et al.

Summary: In addition to its neuroinflammatory functions, chemokine CCL5 also exhibits strong neurotrophic properties. CCL5 plays a critical role in promoting hippocampal glucoregulatory efficiency, which in turn enhances synaptic plasticity and memory and cognition functions. CCL5's actions on glucose aerobic metabolism are essential for mitochondrial function, contributing to hippocampal spine and synapse formation, ultimately improving learning and memory.

Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 mediates the inhibitory effect of far-infrared irradiation on adipogenic differentiation of tonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cells

Ha Yeong Kim et al.

Summary: The study reveals that FIR irradiation inhibits adipogenic differentiation of TMSCs through the activation of TRPV2 channel, independent of the PP2B pathway. Calcium ions play a crucial role in adipogenic differentiation, which is modulated by the TRPV2 channel.

Far-infrared irradiation inhibits breast cancer cell proliferation independently of DNA damage through increased nuclear Ca2+/calmodulin binding modulated-activation of checkpoint kinase 2

Du-Hyong Cho et al.

Summary: The study investigated the molecular mechanisms of FIR irradiation inhibiting breast cancer cell proliferation. Results demonstrated that FIR irradiation inhibited cell proliferation by activating the Ca2+/CaM/Chk2 signaling pathway without causing DNA damage.
