Objective: to evaluate the effects of the red and near-infrared wavelength lasers in isolated and simultaneous way on the modulation of inflammatory cytokines produced by human keratinocytes (HaCaT) challenged by cytokines of human monocytes stimulated by lipopolysaccharide from Escherichia coli. Design: HaCaT cells was previously exposed to the laser with wavelengths red (660 nm), near-infrared (808 nm). Then, HaCat cells were stimulated with the supernatant of lipopolysaccharide-challenged peripheral blood cells. The cytokines expressed by HaCat cells were measured using multiplex CBA assay. Results: HaCaT cells increased the production of inflammatory cytokines when stimulated with infrared laser compared to the control group (IFN-α2, IFN-γ, TNF-α, MCP-1, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL -12p70, IL -17A, IL-23, IL-33), the red laser group (IFN-γ and IL-23) and the group of two lasers used simultaneously (IFN-α2, IFN-γ, IL-6 and IL-8, IL-17A, IL-18 and IL-23) (p
