This rat study examined whether pulse-modulated 900 MHz and 1800 MHz RF exposure affects blood-brain barrier permeability using Evans blue dye. The abstract reports increased permeability in male rats at both frequencies (stronger at 1800 MHz) and in female rats at 900 MHz but not at 1800 MHz. The authors suggest…

This rat study tested whether acute exposure to 0.9 and 1.8 GHz continuous-wave radiofrequency radiation alters blood-brain barrier permeability. Using Evans-blue/albumin as a tracer, the authors report no BBB leakage in exposed female rats but a significant increase in albumin in exposed male rat brains versus sham.…

This rat study examined hippocampal aquaporin 4 (AQP4) expression after microwave exposure at 10, 30, or 100 mW/cm^2. The authors report increased AQP4 protein and gene expression after exposure, with recovery at lower power density but more persistent elevation at higher power density. They conclude that increased…
