Effect of the radiation emitted from a cell phone on T lymphocytes in mice

This mouse study examined whether cell phone radiation affects T lymphocytes over 2–8 weeks of exposure. CD4 and CD8 subset percentages were similar across groups, but after more than six weeks, exposed groups showed increased T-cell apoptosis and reduced transformation rates compared with shams. The study also…

T-Cell Differentiation to T Helper 9 Phenotype is Elevated by Extremely Low-Frequency Electromagnetic Fields Via Induction of IL-2 Signaling.

This in vitro study examined 60 Hz extremely low-frequency EMF exposure (0.8 mT) on CD4 T cells under Th9-polarizing conditions. The authors report increased Th9-associated responses including IL-9 secretion, transcription factor changes (including early GATA3), and increased STAT5/STAT6 phosphorylation alongside…
