ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the damaging effect of microwave on neurons and the protective effect of selenium on damaged neurons after exposure to microwave. Methods In vitro cultured PC12 cells were exposed to 65 mW/cm 2 microwave. The survival rate, SOD activity, GSH-Px activity, and MDA concentration of PC12 cells were detected. The effects of selenium on PC12 cells after exposure to microwave were reflected by these markers. Results Survival rate, activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity of PC12 cells decreased, but malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration of PC12 cells increased after microwave radiation. These changes weakened when PC12 cells were exposed to microwave after pretreatment with selenium. This effect was more significant after pretreatment with selenium at the high dose. Conclusion PC12 cells can be damaged by microwave through peroxidation. Selenium pretreatment can promote the antioxidation and protect PC12 cells from damages induced by microwave.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the role of catecholamine(CA) in the mechanism of bio-effect of electromagnetic irradiation.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The contents of norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (E) and dopamine (DA) in serum and hippocampus of rats at 0, 8, 24, 48 hours after electromagnetic irradiation were measured by using high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detector(HPLC-ECD), and the influence of two kinds of shelter on CA was studied.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The levels of CA in serum and hippocampus increased obviously in an instant, decreased at 8 h and increased significantly again at 24 h after irradiation without shielding irradiation. But at 48 h, the levels of NA, DA in hippocampus were still higher and the serum's NA, DA were not different from the control. After irradiation with whole body shielding, the levels of CA had no changes. The contents of CA increased significantly only at 24 h after irradiation by 65 W/cm2 electromagnetic wave with trunk shielding. After irradiation by 129 W/cm2 with trunk shielding, the change of CA were similar to that of no shielding.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>CA may take part in the injury to central nervous system and cardiovascular system after electromagnetic irradiation. And the injury to central nervous system may sustain longer than that of cardiovascular system. The protective effect of whole body shielding is the best, while trunk shielding may have some protective effect following lower and middle power electromagnetic wave. The most important protective measure is to shield the head.</p>
