The article deals with possible expression of particular transcription factors responsive to static magnetic fields as a guidepost for possible functional alterations induced by magnetism in the brain. Furthermore, an aspect on the search for genes expressed in response to sustained magnetism in cultured rat hippocampal neurons using a differential display technique is also discussed.

It appears that static magnetic field may modulate cellular integrity and functionality through expression of a variety of responsive genes required for gene transcription and translation, proliferation, differentiation, maturation, survival, and so on in cultured rat hippocampal neurons.
