Jan 1, 2025
This animal study examined whether paternal exposure to 4.9 GHz (5G) radiofrequency radiation affects male offspring in C57BL/6 mice. It reports increased anxiety-like behavior and reduced sperm quality in adult F1 males from exposed fathers, alongside reported LRGUK hypermethylation and reduced LRGUK expression in…
From adults to offspring: Wi-Fi RF-EMR exposure in adult zebrafish impairs reproduction and transgenerationally effects development and behavior of progeny

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study examined Wi-Fi RF-EMR exposure in adult zebrafish (4 hours/day for 30 days) and assessed reproductive tissues and offspring outcomes. The abstract reports testicular and ovarian histopathological abnormalities in exposed adults. Offspring from exposed parents, maintained under EMF-free conditions,…

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study exposed rats to a 1800 MHz electromagnetic field for 12 weeks and assessed hormones, sperm quality, and behavior. The abstract reports increased corticosterone, decreased thyroid-stimulating hormone, reduced sperm motility/viability, and increased anxiety-like behavior in exposed rats. Some hormonal…
The CB1R of mPFC is involved in anxiety-like behavior induced by 0.8/2.65 GHz dual-frequency electromagnetic radiation

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study reports that dual-frequency RF EMR exposure (0.8/2.65 GHz, 4 W/kg) induced anxiety-like behavior in mice. It also reports reduced CB1R and endocannabinoid levels in the mPFC and altered endocannabinoid system markers in the BLA. CB1R overexpression or knockdown in the mPFC reportedly decreased or…
Possible effects of melatonin and omega-3 on the obesity-related hypothalamic nuclei of the electromagnetic field-exposed offspring rats: a stereological and immunohistochemical analysis.

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study examined whether prenatal exposure to a 900 MHz electromagnetic field affects obesity-related hypothalamic nuclei in male rat offspring and whether melatonin or omega-3 modifies these effects. The EMF-exposed group showed fewer neurons in the arcuate nucleus, stronger NPY immunoreactivity, and…
The extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field (50 Hz) can establish a new "set-point" for the activity of the locus coeruleus-noradrenergic (LC-NA) system in rat.

Jan 1, 2024
This animal study exposed rats to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 1 mT or 7 mT for 1 hour/day over 7 days, repeated across three cycles, and assessed catecholamines, MHPG, β2-adrenergic receptor expression, and behavior. The authors report that ELF-EMF influences stress-response mechanisms involving the locus…
Comparing the Effects of Long-term Exposure to Extremely Low-frequency Electromagnetic Fields With Different Values on Learning, Memory, Anxiety, and β-amyloid Deposition in Adult Rats.

Jan 1, 2021
This animal study exposed adult male rats to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 1, 100, 500, or 2000 μT for 1 hour/day over two months and assessed behavior and brain markers. The authors report increased memory retention (higher step-through latency) alongside increased anxiety-like behavior (reduced open-arm entries), particularly…
The effect of exposure to low frequency electromagnetic fields (EMF) as an integral part of the housing system on anxiety-related behaviour, cognition and welfare in two strains of laboratory mouse.

Jan 1, 2018
This animal study tested whether continuous low-frequency EMF exposure from a cage-integrated EMF plate affected anxiety-related behaviour, cognition, or welfare over six weeks in two mouse strains. Across all measured outcomes, the authors report no significant differences between EMF on versus off conditions.…
