Descripción
In the last
decades the interest to study the effect of non-ionizing radiation, such as the
electromagnetic fields (EMF) on cellular systems has increased. In this article
the interaction between EMF and biological systems is described. An analysis of
the effect of the electromagnetic stimulation at different frequencies and
intensities on cell cultures is performed. Preliminary results show that the
stimulation with extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF), EMF
from 3 to 30 Hz, on the cellular line of neuroblastoma SK-NSH induces cellular
stress. This is reflected by a variation in the proteins expression in
comparison with the group of cells no stimulated. In particular, the proteins
expression shows that the ELF-EMF produce changes in the current proteins in
normal or basal conditions in the cells, that is, new proteins appear or there
is evidence of an increasing in the amount of them.
