この研究は、マイクロ波(MWs)放射を受けたラットの肝臓に、メラトニン(Mel:2mg/kgの腹腔内投与)の好ましい効果があるか否かを調べた。6週齢Wister雄ラット(n=84)を4群に分けた:対照群(生食投与)、Mel群、MWs群、MWs+Mel群。マイクロ波(900MHz、100-300μT、54-160V/m)は1日4時間、20、40、60日間のばく露とした。効果を酸化ストレスパラメータ、カタラーゼ、キサンチン酸化酵素、デオキシリボヌクレアーゼの活性で評価した。結果として、メラトニンはマイクロ波ばく露を受けた肝臓におけるある種の抗酸化作用に影響した、と報告している。

The effects of exposure of rats to a 900 MHz electromagnetic field and co-exposure to melatonin on oxidative stress in the liver should be investigated.
84 rats were divided into 4 groups (n=21 each): 1) control group, 2) administration of melatonin, 3) exposure to microwaves, 4) administration of melatonin and exposure to microwaves. Seven animals of each group were sacrificed and examined after 20, 40 and 60 days of exposure, respectively.
2 mg/kg body weight melatonin was administered intraperitoneally every morning in groups 2 and 4. Animals of the control group received an equal volume of isotonic saline solution.

The lipid peroxidation was significantly increased in group 3 (exposure to microwaves) compared to the control group after 40 and 60 days of exposure. At the same time, it was significantly reduced in group 4 (melatonin + microwaves) compared to group 3.
Moreover, protein oxidation was significantly increased after 20, 40 and 60 days, catalase and xanthine oxidase enzyme activity were significantly increased after 40 and 60 days and the enzyme activity of alkaline deoxyribonuclease I was significantly increased after 60 days of exposure in group 3 compared to the control group and group 2 (melatonin only).
The authors conclude that exposure of rats to a 900 MHz electromagnetic field could cause oxidative stress in the liver and that melatonin might have an antioxidant effect by reducing lipid peroxidation.
