This study introduces a multi-scale electrokinetic model to characterize electrical impulses and ionic current propagation along microtubules, incorporating atomistic protein details and biological environments. It emphasizes nanopore-mediated coupling between microtubule surfaces as a key mechanism enabling luminal…

Sep 8, 2022
This review discusses low-energy amplitude-modulated RF EMF (27.12 MHz carrier with low Hz–kHz envelope modulation) delivered systemically via intrabuccal antenna devices as a potential treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. It reports preclinical inhibition of cancer growth in vitro and in mouse xenograft…

This in vitro study exposed V79 cells to 915 MHz GSM-modulated RF radiation for 1–3 hours at 10–30 V/m (average SARs reported as 0.23–1.6 W/kg). The authors report that 3-hour exposure altered microtubule structure across all tested field strengths and reduced cell growth on the third post-exposure day. They conclude…
Velocity modulation of microtubules in electric fields.

Jan 1, 2008
This in vitro study reports that electric fields can control the velocity of microtubules gliding over a kinesin-coated surface. Assisting fields increased speed up to fivefold, while opposing fields slowed motion to zero, and sideways fields induced significant motion. The authors present a grab-and-release model to…
