Drosophila flies placed in a habitat with two lateral boxes demonstrated sensitivity to magnetic fields: Oviposition decreased by exposure to pulsated extremely low frequency (ELF) (100)Hz, 1.76 miliTesla (mT) and sinusosidal fields (50 Hz, 1 mT), while there was no initial effect of exposure to a static magnetic field (4.5 mT). Drosophila eggs treated for 48 h with the above described fields showed that (1) mortality of eggs was lower in controls than in eggs exposed to all tested magnetic fields; (2) mortality of larvae increased when a permanent magnet was used; (3) mortality of pupae was highest when a permanent magnet was used; and (4) general adult viability was highest in controls (67%) and diminished progressively when eggs were exposed to pulsated (55%), sinusoidal (45%), and static (35%) magnetic fields. 相似文献

Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSCs) were exposed to a developed extremely low-frequency (ELF) magnetic fields (50?Hz ,20?mT ELF) system to evaluate whether exposure to (ELF) magnetic fields affects growth, metabolism, and differentiation of hMSCs. MTT method was used to determine the growth and metabolism of hMSCs following exposure to ELF magnetic fields. Na+/K+ concentration and osmolality of extracelluar were measured after exposured culture. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay and Calcium assay, ALP staining, and Alizarin red staining were performed to evaluate the osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs under the ELF magnetic field exposure. In these experiments, the cells were exposed to ELF for up to 23 days. The results showed that exposure to ELF magnetic field could inhibit the growth and metabolism of hMSC, but have no significant effect on differentiation of hMSCs. These results suggested that ELF magnetic field may influence the early development of hMSCs related adult cells. 相似文献

Experimental evidence for the appearance of synchronized bioelectric activity in neurons under applied extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields is shown. We have studied the synchronizing process by recording the intracellular bioelectric activity from pairs of neurons randomly chosen from the brain ganglia of the snail Helix aspersa. The recordings were made in real time under exposure to sinusoidal low frequency (50 Hz) weak (B0=1–15 mT) magnetic fields. Synchronization was observed in 27% of the pairs tested. A linear dependence of the firing frequency f with the energy density of the applied magnetic field (i.e., f∝B02) was presented. The ability of low frequency sinusoidal weak magnetic fields to promote “magnetic synchronization” is exciting and opens new avenues for induced electromagnetic field bioeffects. 相似文献

Inhibition of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) is an important event in the multistage process of carcinogenesis. Our previous study showed that extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields (MFs) inhibit GJIC, and enhance the suppression of GJIC induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) using a microinjection technique. In the present study, the inhibition of GJIC by ELF MFs and its threshold were further studied with fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) technique. The results indicated that the FRAP technique is more sensitive in detecting the changes of GJIC than microinjection, and the threshold level is 0.4 mT for GJIC suppression by 50 Hz MFs. In addition, 0.2 mT, or more than 0.2 mT ELF can enhance the inhibition of GJIC induced by TPA. We concluded that MFs thus might act as a cancer promoter or work in synergy with other cancer promoters. The data also provide grounds to revise the reference standard of ELF MFs exposure. 相似文献

The effects of extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields on membrane F0F1‐ATPase activity have been studied. When the F0F1‐ATPase was exposed to 60 Hz magnetic fields of different magnetic intensities, 0.3 and 0.5 mT magnetic fields enhanced the hydrolysis activity, whereas 0.1 mT exposure caused no significant changes. Even if the F0F1‐ATPase was inhibited by N,N‐dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, its hydrolysis activity was enhanced by a 0.5 mT 60 Hz magnetic field. Moreover, when the chromatophores which were labeled with F‐DHPE were exposed to a 0.5 mT, 60 Hz magnetic field, it was found that the pH of the outer membrane of the chromatophore was unchanged, which suggested that the magnetic fields used in this work did not affect the activity of F0. Taken together, our results show that the effects of magnetic fields on the hydrolysis activity of the membrane F0F1‐ATPases were dependent on magnetic intensity and the threshold intensity is between 0.1 and 0.3 mT, and suggested that the F1 part of F0F1‐ATPase may be an end‐point affected by magnetic fields.

Applied AC and DC magnetic fields cause alterations in the mitotic cycle of early sea urchin embryos
This study demonstrates that exposure to 60 Hz magnetic fields (3.4–8.8 mT) and magnetic fields over the range DC-600 kHz (2.5–6.5 mT) can alter the early embryonic development of sea urchin embryos by inducing alterations in the timing of the cell cycle. Batches of fertilized eggs were exposed to the fields produced by a coil system. Samples of the continuous cultures were taken and scored for cell division. The times of both the first and second cell divisions were advanced by ELF AC fields and by static fields. The magnitude of the 60 Hz effect appears proportional to the field strength over the range tested. The relationship to field frequency was nonlinear and complex. For certain frequencies above the ELF range, the exposure resulted in a delay of the onset of mitosis. The advance of mitosis was also dependent on the duration of exposure and on the timing of exposure relative to fertilization. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

An exposure facility for wide application to cell exposure to an ELF (extremely low frequency) magnetic field was developed. It is suitable for conducting experiments under a high-intensity, variable-frequency magnetic field, on the biological effects of the ELF magnetic field in an in vitro study. The exposure system consists of Merritt's 4-square coil as a basic component to generate the required magnetic field intensity of 10 mT at 50 Hz with spatial field uniformity less than +/-3% in a 400 mm cube. Concentric compensation coils are adopted to eliminate the effects of stray fields on sham (control) samples in the vicinity of the exposure system. The uniformity of the magnetic field in the exposure coil, the increase in the power supply capacity due to the existence of compensation coils, and the stray field estimation were investigated carefully. After fabricating the system, performance tests were carried out and all the characteristics were found to be satisfactory. In addition, the ideal configuration for a concentric coil system was proposed. 相似文献

Escherichia coli K12 was used as a model system to determine whether ELF magnetic fields (MFs) are a general stress factor. The cells were exposed to ELF MFs (5-100 Hz) at a maximum intensity of 14 mT r. m.s. for circularly polarized MFs and 10 mT r.m.s. for vertically polarized MFs. The response of the cells to the MFs was estimated from the change in protein synthesis by using 2D PAGE. Approximately 1,000 proteins were separated on the 2D gels. The stress-responsive proteins such as CH10, DNAK, CH60, RECA, USPA, K6P1 and SODM were identified from the SWISS-2DPAGE database on the 2D gels. These proteins respond to most stress factors, including temperature change, chemical compounds, heavy metals, and nutrients. When the bacterial cells were exposed to each MF at 5-100 Hz under aerobic conditions (6.5 h) or at 50 Hz under anaerobic conditions (16 h) at the maximum intensity (7.8 to 14 mT r.m.s.), no reproducible changes were observed in the 2D gels. Changes in protein synthesis were detected by 2D PAGE with exposure to heat shock (50 degrees C for 30 min) or under anaerobic conditions (no bubbling for 16 h). Increases in the levels of synthesis of the stress proteins were observed in heat-shocked cells (CH60, CH10, HTPG, DNAK, HSLV, IBPA and some unidentified proteins) and in cells grown under anaerobic conditions (DNAK, PFLB, RECA, USPA and many unidentified proteins). These results suggest that 2D PAGE is sufficient to detect cell responses to environmental stress. The high-intensity ELF MFs (14 mT at power frequency) did not act as a general stress factor. 相似文献

We present a hypothesis that the risk of childhood leukemia is related to exposure to specific combinations of static and extremely-low-frequency (ELF) magnetic fields. Laboratory data from calcium efflux and diatom mobility experiments were used with the gyromagnetic equation to predict combinations of 60 Hz and static magnetic fields hypothesized to enhance leukemia risk. The laboratory data predicted 19 bands of the static field magnitude with a bandwidth of 9.1 μT that, together with 60 Hz magnetic fields, are expected to have biological activity. We then assessed the association between this exposure metric and childhood leukemia using data from a case-control study in Los Angeles County. ELF and static magnetic fields were measured in the bedrooms of 124 cases determined from a tumor registry and 99 controls drawn from friends and random digit dialing. Among these subjects, 26 cases and 20 controls were exposed to static magnetic fields lying in the predicted bands of biological activity centered at 38.0 μT and 50.6 μT. Although no association was found for childhood leukemia in relation to measured ELF or static magnetic fields alone, an increasing trend of leukemia risk with measured ELF fields was found for subjects within these static field bands (P for trend = 0.041). The odds ratio (OR) was 3.3 [95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.4–30.5] for subjects exposed to static fields within the derived bands and to ELF magnetic field above 0.30 μT (compared to subjects exposed to static fields outside the bands and ELF magnetic fields below 0.07 μT). When the 60 Hz magnetic fields were assessed according to the Wertheimer-Leeper code for wiring configurations, leukemia risks were again greater with the hypothesized exposure conditions (OR = 9.2 for very high current configurations within the static field bands: 95% CI = 1.3–64.6). Although the risk estimates are based on limited magnetic field measurements for a small number of subjects, these findings suggest that the risk of childhood leukemia may be related to the combined effects of the static and ELF magnetic fields. Further tests of the hypothesis are proposed. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The effects of extremely low frequency magnetic fields (ELF‐MF) on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity of synaptosomal membranes were investigated. Sinusoidal fields with 50 Hz frequency and different amplitudes caused AChE activity to decrease about 27% with a threshold of about 0.74 mT. The decrease in enzymatic activity was independent of the time of permanence in the field and was completely reversible. Identical results were obtained with exposure to static MF of the same amplitudes. Moreover, the inhibitory effects on enzymatic activity are spread over frequency windows with different maximal values at 60, 200, 350, and 475 Hz. When synaptosomal membranes were solubilized with Triton, ELF‐MF did not affect AChE activity, suggesting the crucial role of the membrane, as well as the lipid linkage of the enzyme, in determining the conditions for inactivation. The results are discussed in order to give an interpretation at molecular level of the macroscopic effects produced by ELF‐MF on biological systems, in particular the alterations of embryo development in many organisms due to acetylcholine accumulation.

Although extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields (<300 Hz) appear to exert a variety of biological effects, the magnetic field sensing/transduction mechanism(s) remains to be established. Here, using the inhibitory effects of magnetic fields on endogenous opioid peptide-mediated “analgaesic” response of the land snail. Cepaea nemoralis, we addressed the mechanism(s) of action of ELF magnetic fields. Indirect mechanisms involving both induced electric fields and direct magnetic field detection mechanisms (e.g., magnetite, parametric resonance) were evaluated. Snails were exposed to a static magnetic field (BDC=78±1 μT) and to a 60 Hz magnetic field (BAC=299±1 μT peak) with the angle between the static and 60 Hz magnetic fields varied in eight steps between 0° and 90°. At 0° and 90°, the magnetic field reduced opioid-induced analgaesia by approximately 20%, and this inhibition was increased to a maximum of 50% when the angle was between 50° and 70°. Because BAC was fixed in amplitude, direction, and frequency, any induced electric currents would be constant independent of the BAC/BDC angle. Also, an energy transduction mechanism involving magnetite should show greatest sensitivity at 90°. Therefore, the energy transduction mechanism probably does not involve induced electric currents or magnetite. Rather, our results suggest a direct magnetic field detection mechanism consistent with the parametric resonance model proposed by Lednev. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Exposure to extremely low-frequency (ELF) electromagnetic fields appears to result in a number of important biological changes. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of 60 Hz sinusoidal magnetic fields (MF) at magnetic flux densities of 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mT on growth and differentiation of the protozoan Entamoeba invadens. We demonstrated an inhibitory growth effect when trophozoite cultures were exposed to 1.5 and 2.0 mT. Furthermore, we found that there was not a synergistic effect in cultures co-exposed to MF and Metronidazole, a cytotoxic drug against amoebic cells. In addition, MF exposure inhibited the encystation process of E. invadens. 相似文献

We recently reported that cephalic regeneration in the planarian Dugesia tigrina was significantly delayed in populations exposed continuously to combined parallel DC and AC magnetic fields. This effect was consistent with hypotheses suggesting an underlying resonance phenomenon. We report here, in a parallel series of investigations on the same model system, that the incidence of regeneration anomalies presenting as tumor-like protuberances also increases significantly (P < .001) in association with exposure to weak 60 Hz magnetic fields, with peak intensities ranging between 1.0 and 80.0 μT. These anomalies often culminate in the complete disaggregation of the organism. Similar to regeneration rate effects, the incidence of regeneration anomalies is specifically dependent upon the planaria possessing a fixed orientation with respect to the applied magnetic field vectors. However, unlike the regeneration rate effects, the AC magnetic field alone, in the absence of any measurable DC field, is capable of producing these anomalies. Moreover, the incidence of regeneration anomalies follows a clear dose-response relationship as a function of AC magnetic field intensity, with the threshold for induced electric field intensity estimated at 5 μV/m. The addition of either 51.1 or 78.4 μT DC magnetic fields, applied in parallel combination with the AC field, enhances the appearance of anomalies relative to the 60 Hz AC field alone, but only at certain AC field intensities. Thus, whereas our previous study of regeneration rate effects appeared to involve exclusively resonance interactions, the regeneration anomalies reported here appear to result primarily from Faraday induction coupling. These results together with those reported previously point to two distinct physiological effects produced in regenerating planaria by exposure to weak extremely-low-frequency (ELF) magnetic fields. They further suggest that the planarian, which has recently been identified elsewhere as an excellent system for use in teratogenic investigations involving chemical teratogens, might be used similarly in teratogenic investigations involving ELF magnetic fields. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Extremely Low Frequency Magnetic Fields (ELF MF) has been considered as a “possible human carcinogen” by International Agency
for Research on Cancer (IARC) while credible mechanisms of its carcinogenicity remain unknown. In this study, a proteomics
approach was employed to investigate the changes of protein expression profile induced by ELF MF in human breast cancer cell
line MCF7, in order to determine ELF MF-responsive proteins. MCF7 cells were exposed to 50 Hz, 0.4 mT ELF MF for 24 h and
the changes of protein profile were examined using two dimensional electrophoresis. Up to 6 spots have been statistically
significantly altered (their expression levels were changed at least 5 fold up or down) compared with sham-exposed group.
19 ones were only detected in exposure group while 19 ones were missing. Three proteins were identified by LC-IT Tandem MS
as RNA binding protein regulatory subunit Proteasome subunit beta type 7 precursor and Translationally Controlled Tumor Protein.
Our finding showed that 50 Hz, 0.4 mT ELF MF alternates the protein profile of MCF7 cell and may affect many physiological
functions of normal cell and 2-DE coupled with MS is a promising approach to elucidating cellular effects of electromagnetic
fields. 相似文献

The effect of weak (up to 3.5 mT) low-frequency (up to 100 Hz) impulse magnetic field on the state of the vegetative nervous system of animals has been studied by analyzing the variability of the heart rate. The effect of the magnetic field was estimated by a specially designed complex for recording cardiac signals of animals. Several specially selected regimes of impulse magnetic fields were studied. It was shown that the impulse magnetic field possesses a high biological activity at all regimes used, and the indices of the vegetative nervous system after the exposure to the impulse magnetic field approach the values typical for normotonic animals. This makes it possible to use magnetic fields at these regimes in magnetotherapy. 相似文献

Protein phosphorylation is an extremely important and widely used mechanism of cellular regulation. Here, the effects of 50 Hz magnetic fields (MFs) on tyrosine phosphorylation were studied. A Chinese hamster lung (CHL) cell line was exposed to 50 Hz magnetic fields at two intensities (0.4 mT and 0.8 mT) for different exposure durations, and western blot analysis was used to measure the degree of tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins. Results showed that both 0.4 mT and 0.8 mT 50 Hz magnetic fields could affect the protein tyrosine phosphorylation in cultured cells. Both intensities could affect the tyrosine phosphorylation of 38 and 97.4 kDa proteins. In addition, 0.4 mT could affect tyrosine phosphorylation of 61.7, 105, and 112 kDa proteins, and 0.8 mT affected the tyrosine phosphorylation of 79 and 150 kDa proteins. Moreover, all the tyrosine phosphorylation changes of these proteins were time-dependent. The findings from this study demonstrated that under these experimental conditions, there was evidence that protein tyrosine phosphorylation was a possible process for ELF-EMF producing bioeffects. 相似文献
