Short-term exposure of 2.4 GHz electromagnetic radiation on cellular ROS generation and apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cell line and impact on developing chick embryo brain tissue

(2025)
Method

Chick Embryo Model:
2.4 GHz continuous wave

4h/day for 5 days

N=20 per group (exposed vs control)

SH-SY5Y Cell Line:
Same EMR parameters

4h acute exposure

Source

2.4 GHz EMR for 4 h each day over a 5-day period.

Result

After 4h Exposure:

  • 25% ↑ ROS production (p<0.001)
  • DNA damage (Tail moment ↑ 40%)
  • Bax/Bcl-2 ratio ↑ 2.1-fold

15% ↓ cell viability (p<0.05)
