Plain English Summary
Researchers exposed newborn mice genetically engineered to be highly susceptible to tumors to cell phone radiation (900 MHz GSM) for 30 minutes twice daily over 5 days. The exposed mice showed no increased cancer risk, no shortened lifespan, and no acceleration of tumor development compared to unexposed mice. This study suggests that brief early-life exposure to cell phone radiation at typical levels may not promote cancer development, even in genetically vulnerable subjects.
Study Details
Patched1 heterozygous knockout mice (Ptc1+/-), an animal model of multiorgan tumorigenesis in which ionizing radiation dramatically accelerates tumor development, were used to study the potential tumorigenic effects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) on neonatal mice.
Two hundred Ptc1+/- mice and their wild-type siblings were enrolled in this study. Newborn mice were...
We found that RF EMFs simulating the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) did not affect th...
Thus, under the experimental conditions tested, there was no evidence of life shortening or tumorigenic effects of neonatal exposure to GSM RF radiation in a highly tumor-susceptible mouse model.
