900-MHz microwave radiation promotes oxidation in rat brain

掲載誌: Electromagn Biol Med 2011; 30 (4): 219-234

この研究では、1日あたり2時間、45日間の900MHzの携帯電話のRF電磁界(SAR0.9W/kg)へのばく露がWistarラットの脳内の坑酸化酵素活性等に及ぼす影響を調べた。その結果、坑酸化酵素活性、プロテインキナーゼC、メラトニンカスパーゼ3、クレアチンキナーゼの低下または上昇、活性酸素種ROS)の過剰生成などのバイオマーカにおける有意な影響が認められ、これらは健康上の意味合いがある可能性を示唆すると結論している。

研究の主なアウトカム(著者による)

The data showed a significant decrease in the enzyme activities of glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase, and an increase in catalase enzyme activity. Protein kinase C enzyme activity was significantly decreased in the samples of the exposed group (hippocampus and whole brain). Also, a significant decrease in the level of pineal melatonin and a significant increase in creatine kinase and caspase 3 enzyme activities was observed in the exposed group (whole brain) compared with the sham exposed group. Finally, a significant increase in the level of reactive oxygen species was also recorded.
The authors conclude that a decrease or an increase in antioxidative enzyme activities, protein kinase C, melatonin, caspase 3, and creatine kinase enzyme activities are related to an overproduction of reactive oxygen species in the animals under mobile phone exposure.
