Project description:We used AML12 cells exposured with pulsed extremely low frequency weak magnetic fields for 4 msec at increasing frequency of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 Hz for 1 sec each. The 1-to-8 Hz pulses over 8 sec were repeated indefinitely. Peak magnetic intensity was 100 mG. AML12 cells were incubated for 1 h under extremely low frequency weak magnetic fields.

Project description:The widespread use of electricity raises the question of whether or not 50 Hz (power line frequency in Europe) magnetic fields (MFs) affect organisms. We investigated the transcription of Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655 in response to extremely low-frequency (ELF) MFs. Fields generated by three signal types (sinusoidal continuous, sinusoidal intermittent, and power line intermittent; all at 50 Hz, 1 mT), were applied and gene expression was monitored at the transcript level using an Affymetrix whole-genome microarray. Bacterial cells were grown continuously in a chemostat (dilution rate D = 0.4 h-1) fed with glucose-limited minimal medium and exposed to 50 Hz MFs with a homogenous flux density of 1 mT. For all three types of MFs investigated, neither bacterial growth (determined using optical density) nor culturable counts were affected. Likewise, no statistically significant change (fold-change > 2, P ≤ 0.01) in the expression of 4,358 genes and 714 intergenic regions represented on the gene chip was detected after MF exposure for 2.5 h (1.4 generations) or 15 h (8.7 generations). Moreover, short-term exposure (8 min) to the sinusoidal continuous and power line intermittent signal neither affected bacterial growth nor showed evidence for reliable changes in transcription. In conclusion, our experiments did not indicate that the different tested MFs (50 Hz, 1 mT) affected the transcription of E. coli.

In conclusion, our experiments did not indicate that the different tested MFs (50 Hz, 1 mT) affected the transcription of E. coli. A total of 60 chips are included in this study. Each comparison (treated vs. sham-treated cultures; untreated negative control cultures) consists of three replicates. The three magnetic field test conditions include sinusoidal continous, sinusoidal intermittent (2 min on, 4 min off) and power line intermittent (2 min on, 4 min off). Exposure periods were 8 min, 2.5 h, or 15 h. The response control consists of E. coli cells treated for 10 min with 1 mM H2O2 or the equivalent water volume. The negative control comprises samples taken from cultures grown with the exposure chambers swiched off.

Project description:This study provides a framework describing how magnetic exposure is transduced from the most-plausible molecular-level ‘biosensor’ (lipid membranes) to cell-level responses that include differentiation toward neural lineages. In addition, SMF provided a stimulus that uncovered new relationships – that exist even in the absence of magnetic fields – between gangliosides, the time dependent regulation of IL-6 signaling by these glycolipids, and the fate of embryonic cells.

Project description:Clinical evidence has shown that electromagnetic fields produce a benefical therapeutic result for wounds, however little is still known about their exact mechanism of action. Moreover, clinical results concerning skin tissue restoration are still debated. In the present study, we carried out gene expression profiling of a human keratinocyte line (HaCaT) submitted to 1 hour of ELF-EMF (frequency 50Hz, intensity 1 mT) in order to identify up- and downregulated genes by this stimulus, and to verify the presence of specific molecular pathways activation. Most of the genes modulated were involved in mechanisms such as protein synthesis. In particular, these genes are related to Mammalian target of Rapamycin (mTOR), which has been identified as a kinase with a pivotal role in cellular proliferation and survival in mammals. In this study, we analyzed the expression profiles of 3 biological replicates of HaCaT cells exposed to ELF-EMF (frequency 50Hz, intensity 1 mT) for 1 hour. All HaCaT cells exposed to ELF-EMF RNAs were hybridized against control sham-exposed HaCaT cells RNAs. Each biological sample was repeated with a technical replicate (extraction-labeling) and a dye-swap experiment.

Project description:This study provides a framework describing how magnetic exposure is transduced from the most-plausible molecular-level âbiosensorâ (lipid membranes) to cell-level responses that include differentiation toward neural lineages. In addition, SMF provided a stimulus that uncovered new relationships â that exist even in the absence of magnetic fields â between gangliosides, the time dependent regulation of IL-6 signaling by these glycolipids, and the fate of embryonic cells. Experiment Overall Design: Subconfluent (70%-80%) undifferentiated LVECs (passage 11) were resuspended at 500k cells in 10 ml culture medium (day 0) and cultured in the presence or absence of static magnetic field. Four conditions were investigated: A) Control (without exposure); B) One day exposure (Exposed on day 6 without recovery); C) Continuous exposure (day 2 to day 5) followed by one day recovery; D) Continuous exposure (day 2 to day 6) without recovery. Cells are harvested on day 7. mRNA was isolated from the cells and microarray analysis was done using the Affymetric Human Genome U133 2.0 Plus Chip.

Project description:Resting and grazing cattle and deer tend to align their body axes in the geomagnetic North-South direction. The mechanism(s) that underlie this behavior remain unknown. Here, we show that extremely low-frequency magnetic fields (ELFMFs) generated by high-voltage power lines disrupt alignment of the bodies of these animals with the geomagnetic field. Body orientation of cattle and roe deer was random on pastures under or near power lines. Moreover, cattle exposed to various magnetic fields directly beneath or in the vicinity of power lines trending in various magnetic directions exhibited distinct patterns of alignment. The disturbing effect of the ELFMFs on body alignment diminished with the distance from conductors. These findings constitute evidence for magnetic sensation in large mammals as well as evidence of an overt behavioral reaction to weak ELFMFs in vertebrates. The demonstrated reaction to weak ELFMFs implies effects at the cellular and molecular levels.

Project description:The formation of new blood vessels is an essential therapeutic target in many diseases such as cancer, ischemic diseases, and chronic inflammation. In this regard, extremely low-frequency (ELF) electromagnetic fields (EMFs) seem able to inhibit vessel growth when used in a specific window of amplitude. To investigate the mechanism of anti-angiogenic action of ELF-EMFs we tested the effect of a sinusoidal magnetic field (MF) of 2 mT intensity and frequency of 50 Hz on endothelial cell models HUVEC and MS-1 measuring cell status and proliferation, motility and tubule formation ability. MS-1 cells when injected in mice determined a rapid tumor-like growth that was significantly reduced in mice inoculated with MF-exposed cells. In particular, histological analysis of tumors derived from mice inoculated with MF-exposed MS-1 cells indicated a reduction of hemangioma size, of blood-filled spaces, and in hemorrhage. In parallel, in vitro proliferation of MS-1 treated with MF was significantly inhibited. We also found that the MF-exposure down-regulated the process of proliferation, migration and formation of tubule-like structures in HUVECs. Using western blotting and immunofluorescence analysis, we collected data about the possible influence of MF on the signalling pathway activated by the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In particular, MF exposure significantly reduced the expression and activation levels of VEGFR2, suggesting a direct or indirect influence of MF on VEGF receptors placed on cellular membrane. In conclusion MF reduced, in vitro and in vivo, the ability of endothelial cells to form new vessels, most probably affecting VEGF signal transduction pathway that was less responsive to activation. These findings could not only explain the mechanism of anti-angiogenic action exerted by MFs, but also promote the possible development of new therapeutic applications for treatment of those diseases where excessive angiogenesis is involved.
