この研究は、金のナノ粒子(AuNPs;直径20または100nm)を結合させた非細胞性のブタ組織(組織工学的に構成)上にマウス線維芽細胞(L929)を播き、そこに超低周波電磁界(ELF-EMFs:12ガウス、60Hz)を1日2時間、10日間連続ばく露し、L929細胞の増殖へのELF-EMFsの影響を調べた。その結果、ELF-EMF刺激は細胞増殖を有意に増強した;AuNPsの存在は、ELF-EMFsの刺激効果を押し上げなかったが、実験3日目から10日目までの増殖速度を上昇させた、と報告している。

The effects of an in vitro exposure of murine fibroblasts to a 60 Hz magnetic field in combination with gold nanoparticles on cell growth should be investigated.
Exposed and sham-exposed cells were investigated with or without co-exposure to gold nanoparticles (20 nm and 100 nm diameter) on extracellular matrix structures. The gold nanoparticles were bound covalently to the extracellular matrix structures via crosslinks with the help of a reagent. For the control, only the crosslink reagent was used without gold nanoparticles and it was referred to as the crosslinked group. The study was conducted in view of a possible use in tissue engineering.

Cell populations in magnetic field exposed cultures with and without co-exposure to 20 nm gold nanoparticles appeared to show denser coverage of the matrix surfaces compared to sham-exposed cultures in microscopical analysis. Cell viability was significantly reduced in cultures with 20 nm particles after the first 3 days compared to the crosslinked group, regardless of the concentration and exposure to the magnetic field. In cultures exposed to the magnetic field, as well as in cultures with 100 nm particles alone, a significant higher cell proliferation could be found from day 3-10 compared to sham-exposed cultures and the crosslinked group, respectively. The daily exposure duration (0.5, 1 or 2 h) had no significant effect on cell proliferation.
The authors conclude that an in vitro exposure of murine fibroblasts to a 60 Hz magnetic field as well as to 100 nm gold nanoparticles can enhance cell proliferation. However, a co-exposure does not show any synergistic effects. Further studies with stronger magnetic fields and/or larger nanoparticles could provide other results, though.
