View Original AbstractMobile phone radiation altered genetic activity in human placental cells without changing stress proteins, revealing hidden cellular responses.
Plain English Summary
Researchers exposed human placental cells to 1.8 GHz mobile phone radiation for up to 24 hours to study stress protein responses. While the cells showed no changes in stress proteins at the protein level, they found subtle changes in genetic activity (mRNA) that varied depending on the type of signal modulation used. This suggests that cellular responses to RF radiation may be more complex and nuanced than previously detected.
Study Details
The aim of this study is to investigate HSP70 expression in human trophoblast cells exposed to different 1.8 Ghz mobile phone signals.
In the current study, HSP70 gene and protein expression were evaluated in cells of the human trophob...
Inducible HSP70 protein expression was not modified by high-frequency EMFs under any condition teste...
The present results suggest that the expression analysis for multiple transcripts, though encoding the same or similar protein products, can be highly informative and may account for subtle changes not detected at the protein level.
