This animal study examined whether serotonergic signaling modifies analgesia associated with repeated ELF electromagnetic field exposure. Sixty-six male Wistar rats were exposed to 50 Hz, 5 mT for 2 hours/day over 15 days and then received 5-HT agonists or antagonists before analgesia testing. Agonists increased,…

This animal study tested whether 50 Hz EMF exposure and/or CoQ10 could protect against TMT-induced hippocampal injury in mature female mice. CoQ10 and CoQ10+EMF were associated with improved spatial memory and reduced histological markers of cell death, alongside increased antiapoptotic markers. EMF alone reportedly…

This animal study in C57BL/6 mice reports that exposure to 50 Hz EMF affected hair follicle regrowth. It also reports increased proliferation of K15 stem cells in hair follicle regions. The authors interpret the findings as potentially beneficial for healing hair loss, but key methodological details are not provided…

This in vitro study examined how morphine, a 50-Hz 0.50 mT electromagnetic field (intermittent), and cisplatin co-treatments affected DNA repair gene expression and cytotoxicity in MCF-7 and SH-SY5Y cells. Morphine alone was reported to down-regulate examined DNA repair genes, whereas morphine plus EMF did not…

This in vitro study exposed SH-SY5Y cells to a 50 Hz, 0.50 mT electromagnetic field under intermittent or continuous conditions, alongside β-lapachone and/or morphine. The authors report condition-dependent changes in antioxidant gene expression, including decreased NQO1 and increased NQO2 under intermittent EMF…

This in vitro study examined whether 50 Hz, 2 mT extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields affect ATRA-driven granulocytic differentiation in NB4 acute promyelocytic leukemia cells. The authors report reduced proliferation and enhanced maturation/differentiation markers with ELF-EMF exposure. They also report…

This laboratory study tested whether brief ELF-EMF seed pretreatment could enhance cadmium accumulation in white mustard seedlings. Seeds exposed to 50 Hz alternating EMF (60 or 120 mT) for 1 minute produced shoots with higher cadmium content than controls, while biomass was unchanged. The authors suggest potential…

This in vitro study exposed MCF-7 and SH-SY5Y cells to a 50 Hz, 0.50 mT electromagnetic field in combination with cisplatin and/or morphine. The combined "CDDP+Mor+EMF" condition showed higher cisplatin IC values than cisplatin alone and "CDDP+Mor" in both cell lines, consistent with reduced cisplatin cytotoxicity.…

This in vitro study tested 50 Hz, 3 mT electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure and 808 nm low-level laser (LLL), alone and combined, on human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells from six donors. The authors report increased cell numbers after 7 days with EMF, greater increases with LLL, and the largest…

This in vitro study exposed human keratinocyte cells (NCTC 2544) to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 0.25–2 G and assessed oxidative stress-related endpoints. Significant increases in ROS were reported at 0.5 and 1 G, with associated short-term changes in antioxidant and lipid peroxidation markers. The authors report that…

This in vitro study examined how 50 Hz low-frequency EMF and a nitric oxide donor (Deta-NO) affect stemness and neuronal differentiation markers in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. The authors report that high NO (1 mM) combined with EMF reduced stemness markers and increased neuronal differentiation markers,…

This in vitro study examined rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells exposed to zinc sulphate in the presence of an ELF electromagnetic field (50 Hz, 20 mT). The authors report increased osteogenic differentiation markers (gene expression, ALP activity, and calcium levels) under combined ZnSO4+EMF conditions,…

This animal study evaluated whether 50 Hz EMF exposure enhances wound healing after transplantation of human epidermal stem cells (ESC) seeded in collagen sponge scaffolds. Thirty-six nude mice with full-thickness wounds were assigned to control, ESC-only, or ESC+EMF groups (50 Hz, 5 mT, 60 min/day for 20 days). The…

This in-vitro study examined whether 50 Hz extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields affect proliferation in HeLa and CHO cell cultures. The abstract reports increased proliferation in exposed cells versus controls, with the largest reported increase under repetitive exposure at 2.49 mT (40 minutes every 12…
