This in vitro study exposed three ccRCC cell lines and a healthy kidney cell line (HEK293) to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 4.5 mT for 30 minutes daily over 5 days. The authors report exposure-associated changes in expression of several genes (names not fully visible in the abstract), with differences between primary…

This in vitro study examined whether selenium supplementation modifies oxidative stress and apoptosis markers in HEK293 cells exposed to 2.4 GHz EMF. The authors report that EMF exposure increased lipid peroxidation (MDA) and apoptosis-related markers while decreasing antioxidant enzyme activities and bcl-2 versus…

This in vitro study examined 50 Hz ELF-EMF effects on human T-type calcium channels expressed in HEK293 cells and on native T-type channels in primary cultured mouse cortical neurons. The authors report that ELF-EMF (0.2 mT) inhibited Cav3.1, Cav3.2, and Cav3.3 channel activity without changing Cav3.2 expression or…
