With the rapid advancement of technology, the escalating levels of environmental electromagnetic radiation have emerged as a significant health concern. Research has demonstrated that exposure to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) can potentiate the toxicity of cadmium (Cd), a heavy metal pollutant, although the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, human...

356. Systematic review of animal models for neurodegenerative disease following low frequency magnetic field exposure

Epidemiological studies have found an association between occupational exposure to low frequency magnetic fields and the occurrence motor neuron disease and Alzheimer's disease, but not Parkinson's disease, while the evidence for multiple sclerosis is insufficient. Animal models studying neurodegenerative disease may provide more evidence on causation and the underlying mechanisms. A...

357. Biological windows of intensity and time that reduce viability and proliferation of tumor and non-tumor cell models

The involvement of magnetic fields in basic cellular processes has been studied for years. Intensity has long been the central parameter in hypotheses of interaction between cells and magnetic fields, however, biological systems are not linear and an increase in intensity does not always increase the occurrence of cellular effects. The main objective of this article is to obtain a specific...

358. Exposure to 1800 MHz radiofrequency electromagnetic field sensitizes mouse embryonic fibroblasts to hexavalent chromium on DNA damage

The potential health hazards of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) exposure have been a subject of concern for decades. However, the effects remain highly controversial, and the underlying mechanisms are not yet fully understood. In our study, we found that co-exposure to 1800 MHz RF-EMF and chromium (Cr) exhibits a synergistic effect on inducing DNA damage in mouse embryonic...

Alzheimer’s disease, a neurodegenerative disorder with unmet therapeutic needs, prompts exploration of electromagnetic interventions [1-2]. We have studied the cell proliferation in mouse brain slices under a long hour RF exposure in an engineered wideband system (0.7-3 GHz) inside an incubator. The brain slices of Wild-type B6129 mice were exposed to pulsed microwaves (6% duty cycle) over a...
