[Hsp70は携帯電話の高頻度使用者での独立したストレスマーカである] med./bio.

Hsp70 is an independent stress marker among frequent users of mobile phones

掲載誌: J Environ Pathol Toxicol Oncol 2014; 33 (4): 339-347

この研究は、高頻度の携帯電話使用者(FUMPs)において、血清中の熱ショックタンパク質HSP70およびC反応性タンパク質(CRP)、hsp70遺伝子発現レベルを測定した。IT関連従業員からの120人をFUMPs群とし、非IT従業員からの102人を対照群(使用が頻回でない使用者:IFUMPs)とした。その結果、IFUMPs群に比べ、FUMPs群では血清中のHSP70およびCRPの濃度が有意に高かった;同様にhsp70遺伝子発現レベルも高かった、と報告している。

研究目的(著者による)

The effects of frequent mobile phone use on stress marker levels in the blood should be investigated.

詳細情報

A total of 120 frequent users of mobile phones (111 men, 9 women; exposure group) and 102 infrequent users of mobile phones (77 men, 25 women; control group) volunteered for this study. Subjects of the exposure group were employees of an IT company with exposure to mobile base stations and a mobile phone use of more than 5 hours/day. Subjects in the control group had a maximum mobile phone usage of 30 minutes/day.
For parts of the analysis, the exposure group was further divided into subgroups, according to the total number of years of mobile phone usage: 1) mobile phone usage for 1-5 years (n=50), 2) 6-10 years (n=65) and 3) for >10 years (n=5).

研究の主なアウトカム(著者による)

The serum levels of C-reactive protein and Hsp70 as well as the gene expression of hsp70 were significantly increased in the exposure group compared to the control group.
The authors conclude that frequent mobile phone use might elevate levels of the stress markers C-reactive protein and Hsp70 in the blood.
