This in vitro study exposed porcine endometrial slices from the peri-implantation period (days 15–16 of pregnancy) to 50 Hz ELF-EMF for 2 hours and assessed promoter DNA methylation in selected genes. The authors report increased methylation for EGR2, ID2, and PTGER4, decreased methylation for IL1RAP and NOS3, and no…

This in vitro study exposed primary cultured Sertoli cells to microwave radiation at 0, 30, or 100 mW/cm^2 for 5 minutes and assessed outcomes 6 hours later. The authors report no differences in apoptosis/death or intracellular Ca2+ at 30 mW/cm^2, though cell-cycle distribution shifted. At 100 mW/cm^2, intracellular…
