Low-power microwave exposure may act on human mast cells by altering gene expression via a mechanism involving activation of protein kinase C, and at temperatures well below those known to induce a heat shock response.
PMID: Cell Biol Int. 2000 ;23(11):739-48. PMID: 10736198 Abstract Title: Effects on protein kinase C and gene expression in a human mast cell line, HMC-1, following microwave exposure. Abstract: We used a resonant cavity which delivered a continuous wave exposure at 864.3 MHz at an average specific absorption rate (SAR) of 7 W/kg to determine …
2.45 GHz EMF exposure can initiate the activation of rat microglia cells and STAT3 signalling involves in EMF-induced microglial activation.
PMID: Int J Radiat Biol. 2010 Jan ;86(1):27-36. PMID: 20070213 Abstract Title: STAT3 signalling pathway is involved in the activation of microglia induced by 2.45 GHz electromagnetic fields. Abstract: PURPOSE: Microglia activation plays a pivotal role in the initiation and progression of central nervous system (CNS) insult. The aim of the present work was to …
Pulsed radiofrequency radiation increases the expression of activating transcription factor 3, an indicator of cellular “stress”, in the rat dorsal root ganglia.
PMID: Eur J Pain. 2006 Feb ;10(2):171-6. PMID: 16310722 Abstract Title: Pulsed radiofrequency applied to dorsal root ganglia causes a selective increase in ATF3 in small neurons. Abstract: BACKGROUND: This is a"proof of concept study"to test the hypothesis that pulsed radiofrequency, PRF, produces cell stress at the primary afferent level without signs of overt thermal …
