This in vitro study examined whether extremely low frequency EMF exposure alters responses of TNF-α-stimulated human microglial cells (HMC3). Cells exposed to 2.5 or 5 Hz EMF for 3 minutes showed increased survival under high TNF-α conditions and reduced migration compared with TNF-α treatment alone. EMF also…

This in vitro study tested whether a low-frequency EMF (7 Hz, 30 mT) alters phagocytosis-related outcomes in the human monocytic Mono Mac 6 cell line. EMF exposure was associated with increased necrosis in cells pre-stimulated with SEB and then undergoing latex bead phagocytosis, while no significant cell-death…

This in vitro study examined whether a low-frequency EMF (30 mT, 7 Hz for 3 h) alters phagocytosis of latex beads and immune-related protein/gene expression in the human Mono Mac 6 macrophage cell line. The authors report that EMF exposure influenced phagocytosis-associated molecular markers, with notable changes in…

This in vitro study exposed primary cultured astrocytes, microglia, and cortical neurons to 1800 MHz RF-EMF at 4.0 W/kg SAR to assess DNA damage and cellular functions. The authors report no significant induction of γH2AX foci and no significant changes in cytokine secretion or dendrite/synapse morphological…
