View Original Abstract100-Hz electromagnetic fields enhanced arthritis cell growth without DNA damage, suggesting therapeutic potential under controlled conditions.
Plain English Summary
Researchers exposed cartilage cells from arthritis patients to 100-Hz electromagnetic fields to test potential therapeutic effects. They found that EMF exposure enhanced cell growth without causing DNA damage, oxidative stress, or cell death. This suggests electromagnetic fields might offer a non-drug treatment option for osteoarthritis.
Study Details
A study of In vitro exposure of human osteoarthritic chondrocytes to ELF fields and new therapeutic application of musically modulated electromagnetic fields: biological evidence.
Isolated human osteoarthritic (OA) chondrocytes were cultured in vitro under standard conditions or ...
The exposure of the cells to both systems enhances cell proliferation, does not generate reactive ox...
We can conclude that both ELF and TAMMEF systems could be recommended for OA therapy and represent a valid non-pharmacological approach to the treatment of this pathology.
