They explain and demonstrate by a review of experimental findings of others and and of themselves, that the, until recently, generally accepted cytochrome c oxidase as the main target for biomodulation (or low level light therapy) is erroneous. They propose that in the search of a new explanation the effect of light on nanoscopic interfacial water layers within and around the mitochondrial rotary motor as those water layers (here only taking into consideration 2-3 monolayers of water) change its structure in response to light, with a capacity of creating a longer tunneling pathway for electrons. Although there only limited layers of water are taken into consideration, it must be addressed that water in general can be a great light target for biological effects as it incites the extensión of the so called "exclusion zone" water, as is underlined elsewhere [1, 2]. |
