Effect of electromagnetic field radiation on transcriptomic profile and DNA methylation level in pig conceptuses during the peri-implantation period

This in vitro study exposed pig conceptuses (days 15–16 of pregnancy) to 50 Hz ELF-EMF for 2 hours and assessed transcriptomic and DNA methylation changes. The authors report altered expression of 21 protein-coding transcripts and an approximately 16-fold increase in genomic DNA methylation, with promoter methylation…

Assessing cell viability and genotoxicity in Trigonella foenum-graecum L. exposed to 2100 MHz and 2300 MHz electromagnetic field radiations.

This experimental study assessed cytotoxic and genotoxic endpoints in Trigonella foenum-graecum L. exposed to 2100 MHz and 2300 MHz EMF-r for 0.5–8 h/day. The authors report reduced root/shoot growth at longer daily exposures, increased chromosomal aberrations compared with controls, and reduced cell viability.…

Exposure to 2100 MHz electromagnetic field radiations induces reactive oxygen species generation in roots.

This experimental study examined whether 2100 MHz cell phone-related RF-EMF exposure affects oxidative stress markers in onion roots. After 1–4 hours of continuous-wave exposure in a single day, the study reports increased lipid peroxidation and ROS-related measures (MDA, hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion).…

Association of Exposure to Radio-Frequency Electromagnetic Field Radiation (RF-EMFR) Generated by Mobile Phone Base Stations with Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

This cross-sectional study compared male students from two schools with different measured RF-EMFR levels inside the buildings, attributed to nearby mobile phone base stations (~200 m away). The higher-exposure school had a significantly higher mean HbA1c than the lower-exposure school. The authors also report a…
