The effect of 6GHz radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation on rat pain perception

This paper presents data on pain perception in rats exposed to 6 GHz radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation (RF-EMR). Rats were divided into two groups: control (n = 10, 4 replicates per test) and RF-EMR exposed group (n = 10, 4 replicates per test). Nociceptive responses of the groups were measured using rodent analgesiometry. Rats were divided into control and RF-EMR exposed groups. Nociceptive responses were measured using rodent analgesiometry. RF-EMR exposed rats had a 15% delay in responding to hot plate thermal stimulation compared to unexposed rats. The delay in responding to radiant heat thermal stimulation was 21%. We determined that RF-EMR promoted the occurrence of pressure pain as statistical significance by + 42% (p < 0.001). We observed that RF-EMR exposure increased nociceptive pain by + 35% by promoting cold plate stimulation (p < 0.05). RF-EMR exposure did not affect thermal preference as statistical significance but did support the formation of pressure pain perception.

An invitro study on the effect of prostaglandin E2 and F2 alpha on E-rosette forming activity of normal lymphocytes

The effects of PGE2 and F2 alpha have been studied on E-rosette forming activity of normal human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Addition of both PGs into the incubation medium caused a significant and concentration - dependent inhibition of E-rosette formation. The minimum effective concentration of both PGs was found to be 10(-9) M and complete inhibition was obtained when the concentration was increased to 10(-7) M. Possible mechanisms of the action of PGs on E-rosette formation are discussed.
