This in vitro study exposed rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells to a 50 Hz, 5 mT sinusoidal EMF and assessed migration and signaling mechanisms. The authors report increased MSC migration that depended on extracellular Ca²⁺ influx and was abolished by SOCE inhibition, alongside increased Orai1 expression…

This in vitro study examined whether low-frequency electromagnetic fields (EMF) affect mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) polarity and directional migration at wound edges. EMF-treated cells showed increased asymmetric redistribution of the polarity marker β-COP and altered γ-tubulin localization at wound margins. The…

This in vitro study exposed dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells to 50 Hz pulsed electromagnetic fields at 0.5 or 1 mT for 20 or 40 minutes per day over seven days. Cell survival/proliferation was generally higher than control across exposure groups, except for the 40 minutes/day at 1 mT condition. DMP1 expression was…

This in vitro study developed magnetic electrospun nanofibers for bone regeneration and evaluated osteogenic and antibacterial properties. Functionalization with ATP and Mg increased mesenchymal stem cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic marker readouts compared with unmodified fibers. The authors report that…

This in vitro study examined how a 20 mT static magnetic field and a 20 mT 50 Hz electromagnetic field affect mesenchymal stem cells under conditions involving ROS and acidic pH. The authors report increased ROS and antioxidant-response markers (Nrf2, SOD2, GST) across SMF, EMF, and combined exposures, with…

This in vitro study examined intermittent extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) exposure (6 h/day) in human periodontal ligament mesenchymal stem cells during osteogenic differentiation. After 10 days, ELF-EMF-exposed cells showed increased proliferation and calcium deposition versus sham.…

This in vitro and rat study evaluated sinusoidal electromagnetic field (EMF) treatment of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) seeded on 3D-printed scaffolds for repairing critical-sized calvarial defects. The authors report that EMF-treated cell scaffolds accelerated bone defect repair in rats.…

This in vitro study tested 50 Hz, 1 mT ELF-EMF exposure (8 h/day for 21 days) and betaine (10 mM) during osteogenic induction of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells. The authors report ELF-EMF decreased osteogenic differentiation and reduced RUNX2 and OCN gene expression compared with non-EMF conditions.…

This in vitro study evaluated whether extremely low-frequency EMF (50 Hz,

This animal and in vitro study evaluated sinusoidal electromagnetic field (SEMF) exposure combined with VEGF in rat mesenchymal stem cells and in a rat cranial defect model using rBMSC-laden PCL/HA scaffolds. The authors report increased osteogenic and endothelial marker expression with SEMF and VEGF, with a slight…

This in vitro study exposed human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells to extremely low frequency EMF (7.5–70 Hz, 1 mT) generated by Helmholtz coils. The authors report increased MSC migration across all tested frequencies. Mechanistically, the effect is described as dependent on intracellular calcium and…

This in vitro study examined how 50 Hz low-frequency EMF and a nitric oxide donor (Deta-NO) affect stemness and neuronal differentiation markers in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. The authors report that high NO (1 mM) combined with EMF reduced stemness markers and increased neuronal differentiation markers,…
