Jan 1, 2025
This animal study exposed adult male rats to 2.45 GHz electromagnetic radiation for 2 hours/day for one month and assessed testicular outcomes. The abstract reports that EMR exposure induced oxidative stress, increased inflammatory markers, and caused histological testicular injury. Alpha-lipoic acid supplementation…

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 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 rat study examined whether microwave radiation affects Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling in testis. The authors report increased TLR2-5 expression and elevated pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α) after microwave exposure. Key phosphorylated components of TLR signaling (including NF-κB p65) were also…

This animal study exposed male Fischer-344 rats to 900 MHz or 1800 MHz microwave radiation for 30 days (2 h/day) and compared outcomes to sham exposure. The authors report significant cognitive impairment along with increased oxidative stress in brain tissue in exposed rats. They also report increased inflammatory…
