Protective effect of radiofrequency exposure against menadione‐induced oxidative DNA damage in human neuroblastoma cells: The role of exposure duration and investigation on key molecular targets

Abstract In our previous studies, we demonstrated that 20 h pre-exposure of SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells to 1950 MHz, UMTS signal, at specific absorption rate of 0.3 and 1.25 W/kg, was able to reduce the oxidative DNA damage induced by a subsequent treatment with menadione in the alkaline comet assay while not inducing genotoxicity per se. In this […]

Pulsed electromagnetic fields attenuate human musculocutaneous nerve damage induced by biceps eccentric contractions

Abstract Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy, a noninvasive treatment, has shown promise in mitigating nerve damage. However, unaccustomed exercises, such as eccentric contractions (ECCs), can damage both muscle and nerve tissue. This study investigated whether magnetic stimulation (MS) with PEMF could aid in nerve recovery after ECCs in the elbow flexors. Twenty participants were randomly […]

A comparative study of simulated electric fields of transcranial magnetic stimulation targeting different cortical motor regions

Abstract This computational simulation study investigates the strength of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)-induced electric fields (EF) in primary motor cortex (M1) and secondary motor areas. Our results reveal high interindividual variability in the strength of TMS-induced EF responses in secondary motor areas, relative to the stimulation threshold in M1. Notably, the activation of the supplementary […]

Nonlinearities and timescales in neural models of temporal interference stimulation

Abstract In temporal interference (TI) stimulation, neuronal cells react to two interfering sinusoidal electric fields with a slightly different frequency ( f 1 ${f}_{1}$, f 2 ${f}_{2}$ in the range of about 1–4 kHz, ∣ f 1 − f 2 ∣ $| {f}_{1}-{f}_{2}| $ in the range of about 1–100 Hz). It has been previously observed that […]

Stimulus effects of extremely low‐frequency electric field exposure on calcium oscillations in a human cortical spheroid

Abstract High-intensity, low-frequency (1 Hz to 100 kHz) electric and magnetic fields (EF and MF) cause electrical excitation of the nervous system via an induced EF (iEF) in living tissue. However, the biological properties and thresholds of stimulus effects on synchronized activity in a three-dimensional (3D) neuronal network remain uncertain. In this study, we evaluated changes in […]

A real‐time working memory evaluation system for macaques in microwave fields

Abstract With the development and widespread application of electromagnetic technology, the health hazards of electromagnetic radiation have attracted much attention and concern. The effect of electromagnetic radiation on the nervous system, especially on learning, memory, and cognitive functions, is an important research topic in the field of electromagnetic biological effects. Most previous studies were conducted […]

Estimates and measurements of radiofrequency exposures in smart‐connected homes

Abstract The aim of this research was to quantify the levels of radiofrequency electromagnetic energy (RF-EME) in a residential home/apartment equipped with a range of wireless devices, often referred to as internet of things (IoT) devices or smart devices and subsequently develop a tool that could be useful for estimating the levels of RF-EME in […]

Transcriptional response of primary hippocampal neurons following exposure to 3.0 GHz radiofrequency electromagnetic fields

Abstract Exposure to radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic fields (EMF) has been associated with the modulation of neuronal electrophysiology and synaptic plasticity. Given the potential of these changes to coincide with alterations in gene expression, this study investigated whether a transcriptional response would occur in neurons following exposure to RF-EMF, under both thermal and nonthermal conditions.
