Acute microhemodynamic effects of static and alternating magnetic fields at a threshold level were investigated on modulating the muscle capillary mirocirculation in pentobarbital-anesthetized mice. The skin in a tibialis anterior was circularly removed with 1.5 mm diameter for intravital-microscopic recording of the capillary blood velocity in the tibialis anterior muscle. Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled dextran (MW 150 kDa) was used for an in vivo fluorescent plasma marker of the muscle capillaries. Following a bolus injection of FITC-dextran solution into the caudal vein, the peak blood velocity in the muscle capillaries was measured prior to, during, and following exposure to static magnetic fields (SMF) or 50-Hz electromagnetic fields (EMF) using a fluorescence epi-illumination system. The whole body of experimental animals, placed on the observing stage of a fluorescence microscope, was exposed to SMF (0.3, 1 and 10 mT) or 50-Hz EMF (0.3 and 1 mT) for 10 min using a specially devised electromagnet. For sham exposure, the electromagnet was not energized. During exposure and post-exposure to SMF of 10 mT, the peak blood velocity significantly increased as compared to sham exposure. After the withdrawal of SMF and 50-Hz EMF of 1 mT, significant similar effects on the blood velocity were present or enhanced. These findings suggest that field intensity of 1 mT might be considered as a threshold level for enhancing muscle microcirculation under pentobarbital-induced hypnosis.  相似文献

The human T cell line Jurkat registers a sinusoidal extremely low frequency (ELF), 0.10 mT magnetic fields (MFs) at the level of the plasma membrane. In this study, the protein tyrosine phosphorylation (PY) of two membrane-associated proteins in Jurkat cells were examined following a short-term MFs exposure, the zeta chains and the Src kinases p56lck. These proteins are interesting to study since the earliest biochemical event upon T cell receptor (TcR) activation is PY of the zeta chains. These signalling chains in the TcR complex was assessed using Western blotting and the activation of the p56lck kinase was analysed by in vitro kinase assay. The MFs exposure of Jurkat for 5 min activated p56lck and resulted in PY of zeta. These findings are in line with earlier reports on how MFs exposure affects signal transduction in Jurkat.  相似文献

Simultaneous exposure of rat lymphocytes to 7 mT static magnetic field (SMF) and iron ions caused an increase in the number of cells with DNA damage. The mechanism by which MF induces DNA damage and the possible cytotoxic consequences are not known. However, we suppose that free radicals are involved. Potentially, the deterioration of DNA molecules by simultaneous exposure to 7 mT SMF and iron ions may lead to cell death: apoptosis or necrosis. The possible prooxidative properties of these two agents may result in an induction of the lipid peroxidation process as a marker of free radical mechanism in the cells. Experiments were performed on rat blood lymphocytes incubated for 3 h in Helmholtz coils at SMF of flux density 7 mT. During SMF exposure, some samples were treated with ferrous chloride (10 microg/ml), the rest serving as controls. We used the dye exclusion method with the DNA-fluorochromes: ethidium bromide and acridine orange. No significant differences were observed between unexposed lymphocytes incubated with medium alone and lymphocytes exposed to 7 mT SMF. Three-hour incubation with FeCl(2) (10 microg/ml) did not affect cell viability. However, when lymphocytes were exposed to 7 mT SMF and simultaneously treated with FeCl(2), there was a significant increase in the percentage of apoptotic and necrotic cells accompanied by significant alterations in cell viability. As compared to lipid peroxidation, there is a significant increase in the amount of lipid peroxidation end products MDA+4 HNE in rat lymphocytes after simultaneous exposure to 7 mT SMF and FeCl(2) (vs. to the control samples and those exposed to SMF alone). This suggests that 7 mT static magnetic field in the presence of Fe(2+) ions can increase the concentration of oxygen free radicals and thus may lead to cell death.  相似文献

Dental magnetic attachments, usually applied locally to oral cavities, produce stray fields (flux leakage) spreading in adjacent tissues. It has been found that human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells change their geometry and the structure of their cytoskeleton F-actins when the cell cultures are exposed to B-field strengths of B = 10mT and 120mT, respectively, which are similar to those generated by dental magnetic attachments. Analytically, after long-time exposures to B-fields for 12h, 36 h and 60 h, respectively, cytoskeleton F-actins are labeled with a fluorescent dye and observed under a laser scanning confocal microscope. The geometrical cell parameters of cell length and cell width and the fluorescence emission of labeled F-actins, respectively, were determined and subjected to an automatic image analysis using a special software. The results on cell shrinkage and filament reorganizations were statistically analyzed by the program ANOVA (P < 0.05). It was found that only long-time (hours) exposure to high fields in the order of 0.1T may produce tissue irritations during long-time medical treatments using open- and closed-field dental magnetic attachments.  相似文献

The present work reports the growth effects induced by static and sinusoidal 50 Hz magnetic fields (MF) on the haploid yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae WS8105-1C. Magnetic fields were generated by a pair of Helmholtz coils (40 cm in diameter) with 154 turns of copper wire in each and separated 20 cm. The experiments were performed at 0.35 and 2.45 mT, and yeasts were exposed to MF during 24 and 72 h in the homogeneous field area. Growth was monitored by measuring the optical density at 600 nm. The data presented in the current report indicate that static and sinusoidal 50 Hz MF (0.35 and 2.45 mT) do not induce alterations in the growth of S. cerevisiae.  相似文献

Several experimental studies have produced contradictory results on the effects of extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields on cellular processes involving calcium ions. Furthermore, the few positive results have not been independently replicated. In most of these studies, isolated cells were used. Our study used mouse islets of Langerhans, in which very regular oscillations of calcium concentration can be observed at length. These oscillations are sustained by processes that imply energetic and inter-intracellular communication. Various magnetic fields were applied, either sinusoidal at different frequencies (50 Hz or multiples of the natural oscillation frequency) at 0.1 or 1 mT or static at 1 mT. Islets were also exposed to "cyclotron resonance" conditions. There was neither alteration of the fundamental oscillation frequency nor the degree of organisation under all exposure conditions. Using this sensitive model, we could not show new evidence of alterations of calcium processes under exposure to various magnetic fields.  相似文献

Electrolyte solutions were exposed for different time to weak static magnetic field (MF) generated from a stack of magnets (B = 15 mT) at the flow rate of 1.4 mL/s. The conductivity was measured as a function of time following the application of MF. It was found that the changes in conductivity depend on the kind of electrolyte and the magnetic exposure time and are related to the thermodynamic function of hydration.  相似文献

Magnetorheological Elastomers (MREs) are “smart” materials whose physical properties are altered by the application of magnetic fields. In previous studies the properties of MREs have been evaluated under a variety of conditions, however little attention has been paid to the recording and reporting of the magnetic fields used in these tests [1]. Currently there is no standard accepted method for specifying the magnetic field applied during MRE testing. This study presents a detailed map of a magnetic field applied during MRE tests as well as providing the first comparative results for uniaxial and biaxial testing under high strain fatigue test conditions. Both uniaxial tension tests and equi-biaxial bubble inflation tests were performed on isotropic natural rubber MREs using the same magnetic fields having magnetic flux densities up to 206 mT. The samples were cycled between pre-set strain limits. The magnetic field was switched on for a number of consecutive cycles and off for the same number of following cycles. The resultant change in stress due to the application and removal of the magnetic field was recorded and results are presented.  相似文献

Corrosion of metals within magnetic field (MF) had been actively studied for better understanding of the corrosion mechanism when the magnetic sources are presented. However, findings regarding the effect of MF on metals are inconclusive, and there is a lack of studies of MF interaction with various corrosion control techniques, such as corrosion inhibitor. In this paper, the effect of MF on the corrosion of copper in 0.5 M hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution, with or without corrosion inhibitor were studied. Benzotriazole (BTA), a common copper inhibitor, was chosen as the inhibitor for this study. To determine the effect of MF, a MF of 13 mT, generated using a pair of permanent neodymium magnet, was applied during weight loss and electrochemical tests. The results showed that corrosion inhibition efficiency of BTA decreased when it is under an applied MF. A decrease from 47% to 60% in inhibition efficiency had been observed for all samples in an applied MF. By using Tafel extrapolation technique on the polarization curves, it revealed that MF had increased the corrosion current of copper in HCl, causing a decrease in the inhibition efficiency.  相似文献

The effects of extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF)(1 mT, 50 Hz) on the heat shock protein (HSP) synthesis in Escherichia coli were investigated. Two magnetic field signals were studied: sinusoidal (SMF) and pulsed square wave (PMF). It was found that bacteria exposed to SMF showed a significantly higher level of DnaK and GroEL proteins as compared to sham-exposed bacteria as revealed by Western blot, whereas a lower level was observed after PMF exposure. Similar results were obtained when bacterial cells were exposed to heat shock (HS) after ELF-MF exposure: again SMF and PMF resulted in an increase and in a reduction of HSP amount in comparison with sham control, respectively. In conclusion, the MF influences the synthesis of HSPs in E. coli in a way that critically depends on the signal characteristics.  相似文献
