Figure Legend:
Motility of phagocytized black latex beads in ARPE-19 cells (upper) and endogenous melanosomes in porcine RPE cells (lower) after sublethal blue light treatment. Each panel shows a bright-field image of the cells illustrating the organelles, a graphical display of the movement of a single representative organelle before (baseline), during (blue light), and after light treatment (interval 2) and comparison of the mean distance traveled at baseline interval 1 (open bars) and interval 2 (solid bars) in control and light-treated cultures. Data are the total distances traveled over 30 minutes (mean ± SD) for 22 to 30 organelles per group. Organelles in treated but not control cells moved significantly more slowly during interval 2 (P < 0.05, t-test).
