Photobiomodulation as an Innovative Strategy for Night Therapy of Brain Diseases
When light stimulation (photobiomodulation, PBM) is applied during deep sleep, it enhances the brain’s natural waste-clearance system (the glymphatic pathway), accelerating the removal of amyloid-beta and improving cognitive recovery in animal studies.

What Did They Discover?
Researchers found that applying PBM during deep sleep boosted the activity of the brain’s waste-drainage channels. In mice, amyloid-beta (a key Alzheimer’s protein) cleared faster, and cognitive impairment was alleviated.

How Does It Work?
Light expands brain lymphatic vessels and increases nitric-oxide (NO) production, improving cerebrospinal-fluid flow. This speeds up toxin removal while also enhancing cellular energy metabolism through mitochondrial activation.

Why Does It Matter?
Combining sleep and light therapy offers a non-drug strategy to help the brain detoxify itself. This approach may help prevent or slow neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

Conclusion
“When sleep turns on, light can help cleanse the brain.” Night-time PBM activates the brain’s natural cleaning system, promoting recovery and memory maintenance through precise timing with the body’s sleep rhythm.
