The eukaryotic protozoan, Paramecium, was examined as a model for effects of pulsated electromagnetic fields (PEMF) on cells. A 72-Hz PEMF similar to fields employed clinically increased cell division rates in Paramecium by 8.5%. Two calcium transport mutants of these organisms showed differential r

In this study, we investigated whether exposure to 2450 MHz high-frequency electromagnetic fields (HFEMFs) could act as an environmental insult to evoke a stress response in A172 cells, using HSP70 and HSP27 as stress markers. The cells were exposed to a 2450 MHz HFEMF with a wide range of specific
significant (P < 0.01) difference between the values for 50 W kg ร1 and 38 8C, whereas the appropriate symbol is not found in the figure . In conclusion, it appears that confounding thermal effects due to ''hot spots'' may cause the activation of HSPs or other proteins in this and other studies tha
