View Original AbstractCell phone radiation at typical exposure levels didn't impair mouse immune system function, suggesting minimal risk to human immunity.
Plain English Summary
Researchers exposed mice to cell phone radiation (900 MHz GSM) for 2 hours daily over 1-4 weeks to see if it would affect their immune system cells in the spleen. They found no significant changes in the numbers or types of immune cells, and the cells responded normally when stimulated. The study concluded that cell phone radiation at these levels is unlikely to cause clinically relevant immune system problems.
Study Details
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether daily whole-body exposure to 900 MHz GSM-modulated radiation could affect spleen lymphocytes.
C57BL/6 mice were exposed 2 h/day for 1, 2 or 4 weeks in a TEM cell to an SAR of 1 or 2 W/kg. Untrea...

This suggests that the immune system might have adapted to RF radiation as it does with other stressing agents. All together, our in vivo data indicate that the T- and B-cell compartments were not substantially affected by exposure to RF radiation and that a clinically relevant effect of RF radiation on the immune system is unlikely to occur.
