Popis: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an interstitial disease with genetic and environmental risk factors. Experimental models attempt to clarify its pathophysiology and the discovery of new therapies. Therapy with low level laser therapy (LLL) is a possible use in the treatment of pulmonary diseases. Therefore this study investigated the effects of LLL on experimental model of bleomycin-induced IPF. C57BL/6 mice were divided into 3 groups: control, fibrosis and fibrosis+LLL. The animals received a single administration of bleomycin sulfate (1,5Ui/kg it). After 14 days animals started LLL (diodo laser, 660nm, 30mW e 3J / cm²) for 7 days (1x/day). 24 hours after the last irradiation, the animals were euthanized. Collected the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and lungs. Three animals were used for the primary culture of pneumocytes type II and fibroblasts, stimulated with bleomycin with or without irradiated LLL. Evaluated the levels of IL1 β , IL6, TNFα, TGF β , IL10, IL17, IFNγ and KC in the supernatants of cells and BAL by ELISA. We also made collagen analysis airway, stained with Picrocirius. Immunohistochemistry was performed for quantification of PCNA and caspase 3. The results indicate that LLL reduced pulmonary inflammation, by reduction cell numbers in the BAL (p
