On the effects of 30 GHz sinusoidal wave exposure on glioblastoma organoids
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In this study, we evaluated the effects of milli-meter waves on structured Glioblastoma organoids to assess the possibility of therapeutic applications. The exposure setup was completely developed, and the dosimetry carried on based on both numerical and experimental activities. Our results showed that continuous milli-meter waves at 30.5 GHz affect cell proliferation and apoptosis, thus not affecting the differentiation status of the organoids composing of GBM cells. By applying the power level of 0.1 W (RMS), we obtain a synergistic effect with the chemotherapeutic Temozolomide in terms of GBM cell death. All these data open the way to an interventional window in which to treat GBM cells (i.e. with TMZ) exploiting 30.5 GHz CW exposure for potential therapeutic purposes thus improving GBM future management, which remain extremely difficult so far. Our investigation sheds light on the characterization of possible bio-effects of MMW (30.5 GHz CW) on GBM organoids highlighting cell and molecular responses in a relevant 3D tumor model.
