[Photodynamic effect on cells of human adipose tissue in vitro]

Changes in optical properties of human adipose tissue cells after photodynamic exposure in vitro were found and investigated. Analysis of the kinetics of the process was realized by means of photomicrography of the object investigated. The statistical computer processing of digital photos obtained gave us an opportunity to estimate quantitatively the kinetics of photodynamic effect upon the tissue. Optical interpretation of the photos obtained indicates that the observed phenomenon corresponds to the partial lysis of adipose tissue cells without their complete destruction.
