dc.description.abstractWe aimed to validate an in vitro model of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) and investigate the effect of 670 nm light photobiomodulation (PBM) on PVR pathophysiology.Immortalised retinal pigment epithelial cells (ARPE-19) were seeded at 3.0 × 103 cells/well. Half were stimulated with TGF-β1 to induce EMT, then all cells were allocated to either PBM, one treatment of 670 nm light every 3 hours for 12 hours or control. EMT morphology was characterised by area, perimeter, perimeter-area ratio, maximum Feret diameter, minimum Feret diameter, Feret ratio, compactness, eccentricity, and radius. The same parameters were analysed to determine the effect of PBM on EMT morphology.TGF-β induced morphological changes in ARPE-19 consistent with EMT, namely increased eccentricity, compactness, maximum Feret diameter, Feret ratio and perimeter-area ratio. Treatment with 670 nm PBM mitigates changes in perimeter and maximum Feret diameter induced by EMT.The TGF-β1 stimulation of RPE cells produces a morphologically valid in vitro model of EMT. PBM is effective at mitigating some EMT-related morphological changes.en
