Exposure to 50 Hz electromagnetic fields at 1 mT for 60 min decreased both inward and transient outward currents in CA1 pyramidal neuron membranes in hippocampal slices. Blockers of RyR-dependent Ca release (dantrolene) and SERCA-mediated Ca store reuptake (c…
Pregnant rats exposed to 900 MHz EMF (2 h/day during pregnancy) had offspring with a significantly lower number of neurons in the arcuate nucleus compared with sham. Behavioral testing showed increased peripheral-zone time in the open field and fewer open-arm…
Planaria exposed to aversive light showed a significant decrease in preferred arm selections (p < 0.001), consistent with learning to avoid the aversive arm. Planaria exposed to low-intensity theta burst patterned electromagnetic fields (1 μT; five pulsed bur…
Chlorophyll fluorescence rise kinetics analyses suggested that RF-EMF exposure weakened drought-induced hormetic responses in lettuce plants, reducing both the magnitude and extent of the response. The authors interpret this as evidence that RF-EMFs can inter…
Prenatal 900 MHz EMF exposure (2 h/day) during gestation was associated with reduced antioxidant capacity and increased lipid peroxidation, ROS, pro-inflammatory cytokines, apoptotic markers, and TRPM2 activation in offspring trigeminal ganglion at postnatal …
Roots and shoots exposed to 2100 MHz or 2300 MHz EMF-r (0.5–8 h/day; power density 10.0 dBm) showed reduced root and shoot lengths after 4 h and 8 h exposures. Chromosomal aberrations increased versus controls (reported ranges: 2.88%–14.86% for 2100 MHz; 2.84…
Participants with low screen time showed higher working memory accuracy and hit rates, greater prefrontal cortex activation, and stronger functional connectivity compared to high screen time participants. High screen time was associated with reduced working m…
Adult zebrafish were trained to perform a conditioned avoidance response to a green LED visual signal. When the visual signal was presented simultaneously with a sinusoidally changing magnetic field (0.3 Hz), exposure at 0.06 mT negatively impacted learning p…
Dual-frequency EMR exposure at 0.8/2.65 GHz (4 W/kg) induced anxiety-like behavior in mice and was associated with decreased CB1R levels in the mPFC and reduced endocannabinoids (2-arachidonoylglycerol and anandamide), consistent with ECS downregulation. CB1R…
Pooled analysis of two previous studies reported increased odds of prostate cancer with mobile phone use (OR 1.8, 95% CI 1.01–3.1), higher with >10-year latency (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.5–5.3). Dose-response analyses reported higher risk for >2,000 hours of mobile p…
The review summarizes human and animal research suggesting RF radiation exposure (e.g., from mobile phones and Wi‑Fi) is associated with decreased sperm quality (including motility and vitality) and increased DNA damage/fragmentation, alongside increased oxid…
In a six-year time series with over 500,000 BP measurements, statistical BP fluctuations were reported to correlate with geomagnetic activity (Ap index), with similar annual bimodal and multiple periodicities (12-month, 6-month, and intermittent 3-month cycle…
Pig conceptuses exposed in vitro to 50 Hz ELF-EMF for 2 hours showed modified expression of 21 protein-coding transcripts. The study reports an approximately 16-fold increase in genomic DNA methylation levels and detected DNA methylation changes in promoter r…
Molecular dynamics simulations report that terahertz electromagnetic fields at specific characteristic frequencies increased ion permeability in Kv1.2 potassium channels (1.4, 2.2, or 2.9 THz) and in Nav1.5 sodium channels (2.5 or 48.6 THz). The reported effe…
Rats exposed to 900 MHz RF-EMR from a mobile phone for 1 hour/day for 4 weeks showed altered avoidance behavior (increased transitions between compartments and decreased latency to enter the dark compartment). Histology showed marked apoptosis in hippocampal …
The article describes evidence that ferromagnetic ultrafine particulate matter/industrial nanoparticles accumulate in sleep and arousal regulatory brain regions (including orexinergic neurons) and that their motion is responsive to low-intensity electromagnet…
Longer cell phone call duration during pregnancy was associated with higher risk of miscarriage (p<0.001), abnormal birth weight (p=0.002), and abnormal newborn height (p=0.003) compared with lower call durations. Increased cordless phone use was linked to ab…
This systematic review included 52 experimental animal studies (including 20 chronic bioassays) and used narrative synthesis due to heterogeneity. It reports high certainty of evidence for increased risk of malignant heart schwannomas and glial cell-derived b…
Among 100 electricity company employees grouped by exposure status, cataract frequency was 62.2% in the exposure group versus 53.8% in the non-exposure group. A significant difference was reported for nuclear opacity grading (P=0.003), and nuclear and posteri…
Terahertz radiation decreased the neuronal membrane area ratio (cytosol to protruding membrane area), with the effect starting on day 1 and persisting during exposure. The decreased membrane area ratio was associated with altered firing patterns (reduced inte…
