Jan 1, 2025
This rat study examined repeated 3.5 GHz RF exposure (2 hours/day, 5 days/week for 30 days) and thyroid-related outcomes, with and without quercetin. The abstract reports altered thyroid hormones (lower T3/T4, higher TSH) and increased oxidative stress in thyroid tissue after RF exposure. Quercetin appeared partially…

This animal study exposed Sprague-Dawley rats (including pregnant females and offspring) to 2.45 GHz Wi-Fi or mobile jammer radiation for 2 hours daily over two weeks and assessed thyroid hormones and thyroid histology. The abstract reports significant changes in T4 in exposed adult males and significant differences…

This in vitro study examined NIH/3T3 fibroblast cells exposed to 2100 MHz EMF and evaluated cell viability, cyclin D1, and NF-κB activity, with and without 200 nM selenium. The abstract reports reduced cell viability and increased cyclin D1 and NF-κB activity after EMF exposure. Selenium supplementation was reported…

This in vitro study exposed human dermal papilla cells to 70 Hz extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields at 5–100 G for four days. The abstract reports increased expression of several anagen-related molecules and increased proliferation, with 10 G described as the most potent condition. It also reports…

This in vitro study exposed B cells and Balb/c-3T3 cells to intermittent 50 Hz power-line ELF-EMF and assessed apoptosis. The authors report that preincubation with vitamin C or vitamin E reduced apoptosis compared with the exposed group. They conclude that vitamins C and E have protective effects, with stronger…
