Adding lights to particleGPU system

good day friends,
If I want to add lights that affect the particles of a particleGPU system, what´s the best way? I tried to go inside the particleGPU component and add lights there near the render node, but I don´t see them have any effect,
thank you for any tips

did you get anywhere with this? i am also wanting to do this - using a point cloud and instanced points on the GPU
