2.45 GHz exposure leads to morphological changes in rat thyroid, which may indicate a glandular response to acute or repeated stress from radiation in the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis.
PMID: Exp Biol Med (Maywood). 2015 Sep ;240(9):1123-35. Epub 2015 Feb 2. PMID: 25649190 Abstract Title: Exposure to non-ionizing radiation provokes changes in rat thyroid morphology and expression of HSP-90. Abstract: Non-ionizing radiation at 2.45 GHz may modify the morphology and expression of genes that codify heat shock proteins (HSP) in the thyroid gland. Diathermy is …
Betulinic acid derivatives can protect human Müller cells from glutamate-induced oxidative stress.
PMID: Exp Cell Res. 2019 Jul 22:111509. Epub 2019 Jul 22. PMID: 31344390 Abstract Title: Betulinic acid derivatives can protect human Müller cells from glutamate-induced oxidative stress. Abstract: Müller cells are the predominant retinal glial cells. One of the key roles of Müller cells is in the uptake of the neurotransmitter glutamate and in its …
Chronic 2450 MHz RF-EMF fields exposure leads to adverse effects on the liver including occasional necrosis and inflammatory infiltrate.
