Abstract
Low intensity static magnetic fields (SMF) modify different biological parameters that characterize the cell stress. We have initial measurements of oxidative stress (OS), mitochondrial superoxide, Ca 2+ and cell and mitochondrial membrane potential. The observed variations in these parameters show decreases in cell growth, mitochondrial superoxide and OS that could explain the decrease of intracellular calcium. The decrease in intracellular calcium could explain the increase in cell membrane potential and the latter the increase in cell growth observed. We believe that modulation of these parameters using a magnetic field and the consequent modification of the rates of cell division could have important clinical implications. Additional results at larger SMF will be presented.
