Jan 1, 2026
This ex vivo 3D hamstring tendon explant culture study exposed samples from nine donors to pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) for 21 days, eight hours per day. The authors report increased expression of tendon-related markers (scleraxis, collagen I and VI) and tenogenic differentiation-related players (c-Fos and…

Jan 1, 2025
This engineering/methods study proposes an evolutionary computation approach (PCRO-SL) to optimize the selection of measurement points for constructing RF-EMF exposure maps. Tested on real measurements in Meco (Madrid, Spain), it reports good agreement with a reference exposure map while reducing required sampling…

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study exposed juvenile and young adult Wistar rats to 5G (3.5 GHz) or 2G (900 MHz) radiofrequency fields (1.5 V/m) for 1–2 weeks and measured brown adipose tissue-related gene expression by RT-qPCR. The abstract reports significant downregulation of PRDM16 and C/EBP mRNA after 5G exposure, while…

This animal study used qRT-PCR to assess whether 900 MHz radiofrequency electromagnetic field exposure alters neuropeptide-related gene transcription in Ixodes ricinus synganglia. The abstract reports that 40 V/m exposure for at least 60 minutes significantly suppressed transcript levels of sifa, mip, and their…

Jan 1, 2022
This in vitro study examined whether 96-hour exposure to 50 Hz ELF-EMF affects expression of human endogenous retroviruses (HERV-H, HERV-K, HERV-W) in SK-MEL-37 human melanoma cells. Cells were continuously exposed at 1.5 or 3 mT and HERV env mRNA levels were measured by qPCR. The authors report significant…
Gene Expression Analysis in Human Peripheral Blood Cells after 900 MHz RF-EMF Short-Term Exposure.

RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2018
This ex vivo/in vitro study exposed peripheral blood cells from five human donors to a 900 MHz continuous-wave RF-EMF for up to 90 minutes (average SAR 9.3 W/kg). After false discovery rate adjustment, the authors report no EMF-specific gene expression changes on microarray analysis. Although low-stringency analysis…
Effect of long-term exposure to mobile phone radiation on alpha-Int1 gene sequence of Candida albicans.

Jan 1, 2016
This in vitro study evaluated whether long-term 900 MHz radiation exposure induces mutations in the alpha-Int1 gene of Candida albicans. Yeast samples were exposed for 10 to 490 hours at 4°C and compared with unexposed controls. Sequencing of the PCR-amplified alpha-Int1 fragment found no mutations in exposed samples…
Human keratinocytes in culture exhibit no response when exposed to short duration, low amplitude, high frequency (900 MHz) electromagnetic fields in a reverberation chamber.

Jan 1, 2011
This in vitro study exposed normal human epidermal keratinocytes to non-thermal 900 MHz electromagnetic fields in a mode-stirred reverberation chamber under two short-duration conditions. Microarray analysis found only limited gene modulation (20 genes) with small expression ratios and no shared genes across…
