Cell-specific redox may explain the differential effects of electromagnetic fields.
PMID: Curr Med Chem. 2007 ;14(10):1141-52. PMID: 17456027 Abstract Title: Cell type specific redox status is responsible for diverse electromagnetic field effects. Abstract: Epidemiologic and experimental research on the potential carcinogenic effects of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) has been performed for a long time. Epidemiologic studies regarding ELF-EMF-exposure have focused primarily on leukaemia …
Zinc and strontium is lower in teeth of rats exposed to extremely low frequency electromagnetic field which is attentuated by melatonin and reishi mushroom.
PMID: Drug Des Devel Ther. 2017 ;11:1393-1398. Epub 2017 May 4. PMID: 28496309 Abstract Title: Effect of electromagnetic fields and antioxidants on the trace element content of rat teeth. Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine the possible effect of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs), from a high-voltage source, on rat teeth in …
In most studies, magnetic fields increase ROS in mammalian tissues.
PMID: Int J Mol Sci. 2017 Oct 18 ;18(10). Epub 2017 Oct 18. PMID: 29057846 Abstract Title: Magnetic Fields and Reactive Oxygen Species. Abstract: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) ubiquitously exist in mammalian cells to participate in various cellular signaling pathways. The intracellular ROS levels are dependent on the dynamic balance between ROS generation and elimination. …

Electronic equipment repairers, exposed to ELF-EMF, are at a risk of oxidative stress and sleep insufficiency, which could be explained by lower plasma melatonin levels and higher MDA levels.
PMID: Indian J Occup Environ Med. 2010 Sep ;14(3):66-70. PMID: 21461157 Abstract Title: Oxidative stress, melatonin level, and sleep insufficiency among electronic equipment repairers. Abstract: BACKGROUND: Exposure to extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF), especially among electronic equipment repairers may induce oxidative stress and affect sleep quality.AIMS: This study was carried out to (a) investigate …
This paper reviews medicinal plants with insulin sensitizing properties and their effectiveness.
PMID: J Pharm Pharmacol. 2014 Sep ;66(9):1197-214. Epub 2014 Apr 15. PMID: 24730446 Abstract Title: Antidiabetic plants improving insulin sensitivity. Abstract: BACKGROUND: Globally, the prevalence of diabetes mellitus is increasing at an alarming rate. This chronic pathology gravely troubled the human health and quality of life. Both insulin deficiency and insulin resistance are involved in …
Amla, guduchi, and turmeric, traditionally used for diabetes in Ayurvedic medicine, promotes insulin sensitivity in vitro.
PMID: Indian J Pharmacol. 2013 Jan-Feb;45(1):30-3. PMID: 23543787 Abstract Title: Insulin sensitizing effect of 3 Indian medicinal plants: an in vitro study. Abstract: OBJECTIVE: Measurement of glucose uptake into peripheral tissue is an important mechanism to assess Insulin sensitivity. The present in vitro study was conducted to evaluate the Insulin sensitizing activity of Phyllanthus emblica …
Hyperglycemia induces mitochondrial dysfunction by a O-GlcNAc-independent mechanism.
PMID: Biochem J. 2015 Apr 1 ;467(1):115-26. PMID: 25627821 Abstract Title: High glucose induces mitochondrial dysfunction independently of protein O-GlcNAcylation. Abstract: Diabetes is characterized by hyperglycaemia and perturbations in intermediary metabolism. In particular, diabetes can augment flux through accessory pathways of glucose metabolism, such as the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP), which produces the sugar donor …
Mutant Drosophilia flies genetically predisposed to mitochondrial dysfunction exhibit metabolic crisis with a high sugar diet.
PMID: PLoS One. 2016 ;11(1):e0145836. Epub 2016 Jan 26. PMID: 26812173 Abstract Title: Mitochondrial Dysfunction Plus High-Sugar Diet Provokes a Metabolic Crisis That Inhibits Growth. Abstract: The Drosophila mutant tko25t exhibits a deficiency of mitochondrial protein synthesis, leading to a global insufficiency of respiration and oxidative phosphorylation. This entrains an organismal phenotype of developmental delay …
High glucose levels spike reactive oxygen species production by mitochondria and neuron apoptosis.
PMID: FASEB J. 2002 Nov ;16(13):1738-48. PMID: 12409316 Abstract Title: High glucose-induced oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in neurons. Abstract: The current study examines the association between glucose induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial (Mt) depolarization, and programmed cell death in primary neurons. In primary dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, 45 mM glucose rapidly …
