Abstract

The priority concept of the laser histochemical surgery as a potentially novel line in medicine is presented. The histochemical stains, selectively coloring some targets (address substrates), that are cells or their biochemical ingredients, sensitize them to the laser irradiation. Such sensitization to laser irradiation by staining turns the colored targets into targets for the laser beam. The action of the irradiation onto its specific targets beats out of the cell its ingredients which participate in a pathology process. In particular, the beating of a stained ferment out of the general stage of biochemical processes characteristic for the pathology interrupts their currence. The laser beam, when beating out its stained targets without any damage of the unstained tissues, acts like a scalpel that cuts off affected tissues not brushing healthy ones. A scheme for testing stains as sensitizers of the `address substrates' to the laser irradiation is presented. As the criterion of the stain sensitization the fact was chosen of absence or weakness of pathomorphologic and biochemical signs of the disease in an experimental model of the pathology irradiated with laser after a stain use, while the pathology signs are present in a control sample. The basis is done for study of the histochemical stains as potential means for the laser histochemical surgery of disseminated sclerosis, mucopolysaccharidosis, hypercholesterolemia, myocardial infarction, cardiosclerosis, caries and parodontosis.
