This in vitro study exposed adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells to a continuous 50 Hz electromagnetic field at 1.5 mT for 24, 48, or 72 hours and assessed micromolecular changes using FTIR spectroscopy. The authors report the largest FTIR spectral differences versus control in nucleic acids and proteins…

This in vitro study examined whether extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) at 0.2 or 2 mT (continuous or 1.5 h on/1.5 h off) for 18 hours alter viability and gene/miRNA expression in AGS gastric cancer cells. The authors report a significant reduction in cell viability at 2 mT continuous exposure.…

This in vitro study examined how extremely low frequency EMF affects adipose-derived stem cell proliferation, cell cycle, viability, and death using fluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry. Under continuous exposure at 76.6 Hz and 20 T (ICR-based parameters), the authors report a statistically significant increase…

This animal study examined whether exposing Dermacentor reticulatus tick eggs to 900 MHz RF-EMF for 30, 60, or 90 minutes affects the size of hatched larvae. The authors report that the 60-minute exposure group produced larvae with larger measurements across four body traits compared with unexposed controls and other…

This in vitro study exposed mouse spermatogonial stem cells to 50 Hz EMF (2.5 mT; 1 h/day for 5 days) and assessed oxidative stress and cell health outcomes. The authors report increased ROS and apoptosis with reduced antioxidant (catalase) expression, viability, and colonization after EMF exposure. Sertoli…

This exposure assessment measured EMF emission levels around 24 kindergartens in relation to nearby underground transmission lines using an EMDEX II meter. The abstract reports maximum mean EMF levels of 13.5 mG around kindergartens and 17.7 mG from the UGTL point to kindergartens, with a significant association…

This study modelled SAR in humans near fixed multi-antenna UHF RFID readers operating at 866 MHz, representing RTLS and PPE-monitoring use scenarios. The modelling suggests that at 5 cm distance, SAR may warrant consideration against international exposure limits aimed at preventing thermal effects when effective…

This in vitro study examined LTE RF-EMF exposure effects on SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. The authors report reduced cell proliferation and a G0/G1 cell-cycle delay after 1760 MHz exposure at 4 W/kg for 4 hr/day over 4 days. They report no marked DNA damage signal (γH2AX) and no apoptosis activation, but increased…

This in vitro study exposed AGS human gastric cancer cells to 50 Hz ELF magnetic fields at 0.2 or 2 mT for 18 hours (continuous or intermittent). The authors report reduced cell viability versus control and up-regulation of miR-144 and miR-375 during exposure. They also report miR levels decreased 18 and 36 hours…

This review examines temperature-independent (non-thermal) effects of RF and microwave electromagnetic fields, emphasizing antiproliferative effects relevant to oncology. It summarizes preclinical and clinical literature on conventional RF hyperthermia and amplitude-modulated RF hyperthermia and argues that evidence…

This in vitro study exposed HaCaT human keratinocytes to 1760 MHz RF-EMF (SAR 4.0 W/kg; 2 h/day for 4 days). The authors report increased intracellular ROS and increased expression/activity of several matrix metalloproteinases, along with increased phosphorylation of FoxO3a and ERK1/2. Cell growth/viability and…

This ex vivo animal-tissue study tested whether ELF-EMF exposure (50 or 120 Hz for 2 or 4 hours) alters estrogenic activity in pig myometrium during the peri-implantation period. The authors report EMF-associated changes in estrogen-related gene transcripts and aromatase abundance, with progesterone diminishing some…
