Abstract (original English)

Osteoporosis and other degenerative bone diseases pose significant challenges to global healthcare systems due to their prevalence and impact on quality of life. Current treatments often alleviate symptoms without fully restoring damaged bone tissue, highlighting the need for innovative approaches like stem cell therapy. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) are particularly promising due to their accessibility, abundant supply, and strong differentiation potential. However, ADMSCs tend to favor adipogenic pathways, necessitating the use of differentiation inducers (DIs), three-dimensional (3D) hydrogel environments, and photobiomodulation (PBM) to achieve targeted osteogenic differentiation. This study investigated the combined effects of osteogenic DIs, a fast-dextran hydrogel matrix, and PBM at specific wavelengths and fluences on the proliferation and differentiation of immortalized ADMSCs into osteoblasts. Near-infrared (NIR) and green (G) light, as well as their combination, were used with fluences of 3 J/cm 2 , 5 J/cm 2 , and 7 J/cm 2 . The results showed statistically significant increases in alkaline phosphatase levels, a marker of osteogenic differentiation, with G light at 7 J/cm 2 demonstrating the most substantial impact on ADMSC differentiation. Calcium deposits, visualized by Alizarin red S staining, appeared as early as 24 h post-treatment in PBM group
