Researchers studied how ultrashort electric pulses affect neuroblastoma cells, focusing on extremely low energy levels that had never been tested before. They found that even these minimal electric exposures could cause changes in gene activity within the cells. The findings suggest that medical devices using electric pulses may be safer than previously thought, while also opening doors for new therapeutic applications.

This review examines how astronauts' health is affected by losing Earth's natural magnetic field during deep space missions. The research reveals that humans evolved under Earth's magnetic field conditions, and removing this protection may cause unexpected health problems in electrical body systems like the heart and nervous system. The findings suggest astronauts may need personalized protection strategies for long-duration space travel.

Researchers tested extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) and silver nanoparticles against bacteria and breast cancer cells. The combination achieved 100% bacterial kill rates and triggered cancer cell death through programmed cell destruction. The study suggests these agents work by creating oxidative stress that damages harmful cells while potentially sparing healthy ones.

Researchers exposed normal and gastric cancer cells to extremely low frequency magnetic fields at different intensities for 18 hours. They found that specific field strengths (0.25 and 0.5 millitesla) reduced cancer cell viability while boosting normal cell health, and decreased expression of genes linked to tumor growth and spread. This suggests certain EMF exposures might have therapeutic potential against gastric cancer.

Researchers tested whether static magnetic fields combined with natural compounds (caffeic and chlorogenic acid) could kill melanoma cancer cells. They found that both the magnetic field and the plant compounds triggered cell death, with caffeic acid being more effective. This suggests magnetic fields might enhance natural cancer treatments.

Researchers exposed human melanoma cells to power line frequency magnetic fields (50 Hz) for 96 hours and found it significantly reduced the activity of certain viral genes (HERVs) that are linked to cancer development. The study suggests this type of EMF exposure might have therapeutic potential for treating melanoma by suppressing these harmful viral elements.

Air Force researchers exposed cultured brain cells from the hippocampus (the memory center) to 3.0 GHz radiofrequency radiation for 60 minutes at low power levels. They found the radiation altered how neurons fire and communicate, increasing brain cell excitability and changing electrical properties. This suggests even brief, low-level RF exposure can modify fundamental brain cell function.

Researchers exposed human cells to 1.8 GHz radiofrequency radiation (similar to cell phone signals) and found it triggered the formation of harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS) within just 15 minutes. The study revealed that cellular damage doesn't increase linearly with signal strength - instead, certain amplitudes caused no measurable effects while others triggered significant responses. This suggests that even everyday wireless exposures can disrupt normal cellular function through oxidative stress.

Researchers exposed colorectal cancer cells to 2.4 GHz radiofrequency radiation (the same frequency as WiFi and Bluetooth) for 24 hours and found it disrupted the cancer-suppressing effects of a protective molecule called miR-34a. The radiation interfered with the cells' internal clock genes and allowed cancer cells to grow and spread more easily.

Scientists exposed human skin cells to 60 GHz millimeter wave radiation at levels similar to 5G applications for 2-4 days. The radiation altered how genes were expressed and changed DNA's three-dimensional structure without causing direct DNA damage. This suggests that millimeter waves can trigger biological changes in human cells through non-thermal mechanisms.

Researchers exposed cancer cells to 2100 MHz electromagnetic fields (similar to 3G cell phones) and found the radiation increased cell survival and activated harmful cellular pathways.

French researchers exposed human skin cells to 5G signals at 3.5 GHz frequency for 24 hours to test for cellular stress responses.

Researchers exposed human kidney cells to 1.8 GHz radiofrequency radiation at household telecommunications levels and found it triggered the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within 15 minutes. The study revealed that cellular response doesn't increase linearly with signal strength, instead showing a complex pattern with 'blind spots' where certain amplitudes produce no measurable effect. This suggests cell phone radiation can directly alter cellular chemistry in ways that could be either harmful or beneficial.

Researchers tested 22 different extremely low frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields on immune cells called macrophages to see which ones could help fracture healing.
