Jan 1, 2025
This animal study examined whether prenatal exposure to 3.5 GHz radiofrequency radiation (2 hours/day) affects male reproductive outcomes later in life. Male rat offspring assessed at 12 months showed multiple adverse testicular and cellular findings in exposed groups versus sham controls, including impaired…

Jan 1, 2025
This in vitro study exposed human umbilical cord blood lymphocytes to a sinusoidal sweeping-frequency ELF magnetic field (3–26 Hz) for 48 hours at amplitudes from 6 to 24 μT. It reports no statistically significant effects on DNA damage/repair foci or apoptosis measures overall. A non-significant trend at 8 μT showed…

Jan 1, 2021
This in vitro study exposed developing pre-B lymphocytes undergoing V(D)J recombination to low-intensity RF EMFs for 48 hours across 720–1224 MHz. The authors report a frequency- and dose-dependent decrease in recombination, with stronger reductions around 950–1000 MHz at relatively low power densities. γH2AX levels…

Jan 1, 2018
This in vitro study exposed primary cultured astrocytes, microglia, and cortical neurons to 1800 MHz RF-EMF at 4.0 W/kg SAR to assess DNA damage and cellular functions. The authors report no significant induction of γH2AX foci and no significant changes in cytokine secretion or dendrite/synapse morphological…

Jan 1, 2018
This in vitro study exposed human fetal and adult fibroblasts to 25 GHz microwave radiation and assessed multiple genotoxic and cellular endpoints. The authors report no evidence of direct DNA damage and no apoptosis or changes in prosurvival signalling proteins. However, they report increased total and…
RF-EMF exposure at 1800 MHz did not elicit DNA damage or abnormal cellular behaviors in different neurogenic cells.

Jan 1, 2017
This in vitro study assessed whether intermittent 1800 MHz RF-EMF exposure induces DNA damage or alters cellular behavior in three neurogenic cell lines. Cells were exposed at an average SAR of 4.0 W/kg for 1, 6, or 24 hours and evaluated for γH2AX foci, cell cycle progression, proliferation, and viability. The…
