This animal study examined short- and long-term 700 MHz (lower-band 5G) radiofrequency exposure in female Wistar rats, comparing control, sham, and exposed groups. It reports no DNA damage and no change in estrous cycle length, but increased ovarian oxidative stress markers in exposed animals. Long-term exposure was…

This biophysics study used molecular dynamics simulations to examine how terahertz electromagnetic fields affect ion permeation in voltage-gated potassium (Kv1.2) and sodium (Nav1.5) channels. The simulations report increased ion permeability at several specific terahertz frequencies, with effects depending on field…

This narrative review summarizes human and animal research on radiofrequency (RF) radiation exposure (e.g., mobile phones, Wi‑Fi, occupational sources) and male reproductive outcomes. It reports that the literature links RF exposure with reduced sperm quality and increased DNA damage, often alongside oxidative stress…

This animal study exposed juvenile and young adult Wistar rats to 5G (3.5 GHz) or 2G (900 MHz) radiofrequency fields (1.5 V/m) for 1–2 weeks and measured brown adipose tissue-related gene expression by RT-qPCR. The abstract reports significant downregulation of PRDM16 and C/EBP mRNA after 5G exposure, while…

This animal study reports that dual-frequency RF EMR exposure (0.8/2.65 GHz, 4 W/kg) induced anxiety-like behavior in mice. It also reports reduced CB1R and endocannabinoid levels in the mPFC and altered endocannabinoid system markers in the BLA. CB1R overexpression or knockdown in the mPFC reportedly decreased or…

This in vitro study exposed glioblastoma (CT2A), neuroblastoma (N2A), and non-tumor astrocyte (C8D1A) cell models to a 100 μT magnetic field across 20–100 Hz for 24–72 hours. The abstract reports decreased viability and proliferation in the tumor cell models within a frequency window centered at 50 Hz, while…

This animal study trained adult zebrafish to perform a conditioned avoidance response to a visual cue. The visual cue was presented alone or together with an extremely low frequency sinusoidally changing magnetic field (0.3 Hz) at 0.015 mT or 0.06 mT. The abstract reports that the 0.06 mT magnetic field condition…

This animal study examined 27.12 MHz RF-EMF exposure for 30, 180, or 360 minutes in female Wistar rats and assessed markers related to blood-brain barrier integrity. The authors report increased eNOS expression after 30 minutes without oxidative stress or inflammation, alongside decreased occludin expression. Longer…

This in vitro study exposed RAW 264.7 cells to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) and evaluated inflammatory signaling and related endpoints. The authors report that ELF-EMF increased nitric oxide and pro-inflammatory cytokines and was associated with increased NF-κB translocation and NFAT2…

This experimental study assessed chlorophyll fluorescence rise kinetics in lettuce plants exposed to RF-EMFs and subjected to a short drought treatment. Using a conventional JIP test and a machine learning-assisted anomaly-detection approach, the authors report that RF-EMF exposure weakened drought-induced hormetic…

This experimental study used loose patch clamp recordings in coronal hippocampal slices to test effects of extremely low-frequency EMF exposure. A 50 Hz, 1 mT field applied for 60 minutes decreased inward and transient outward currents in CA1 pyramidal neuron membranes. Pharmacological manipulation of intracellular…
