[B6C3F1マウスに対する超低周波電磁界の影響] med./bio.

Effects of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) exposure on B6C3F1 mice

掲載誌: Environ Health Prev Med 2015; 20 (4): 287-293

この研究は、マウスの腫瘍発生および繁殖力に対する超低周波電磁界の長期ばく露の影響を調べた。C57BL/6NCrj妊娠マウス(n=10)に50Hzの磁界(500mG)のばく露を1日12時間、1週間与え、それらから生まれたB6C3F1マウス(雄24匹、雌42匹)をばく露群として、さらに15.5ヶ月間、同じばく露を与えた。対照群として、無ばく露妊娠マウス(n=10)から生まれた雄30匹、雌32匹を無ばく露で同じ期間観察した。その結果、ばく露群の平均体重は雄、雌とも対照群に比べ有意に低かった;肝臓および肺の腫瘍発生率への影響は無かった;雌において、慢性骨髄性白血病発生率対照群に比べばく露群で有意に高かった;精細管の大きさが対照群に比べばく露群で有意に小さかった、と報告している。

研究目的(著者による)

The effects of a chronic exposure of mice to a 50 Hz magnetic field on the incidence of cancer, organ weights and male fertility should be investigated.

詳細情報

The offspring of 10 pregnant mice, which were exposed to the magnetic field during their last week of pregnancy until birth, were used as the exposure group (n=66). The offspring was further exposed after birth for 15.5 months. The offspring of 10 pregnant mice without exposure used for control group (n=62).

研究の主なアウトカム(著者による)

The body weight and weight of the liver of exposed animals were significantly decreased compared to the control group.
In exposed animals, the incidence of chronic myeloid leukemia was significantly greater compared to the control group.
The seminiferous tubules diameter was significantly reduced in exposed animals in comparison to the control group.
The authors conclude that a chronic exposure of mice to a 50 Hz magnetic field might increase the incidence of chronic myeloid leukemia and could have a detrimental effect on the male fertility.
