Epigenetic dysregulation in various types of cells exposed to extremely low-frequency magnetic fields

July 23, 2021
Giorgi, G., Del Re, B. Epigenetic dysregulation in various types of cells exposed to extremely low-frequency magnetic fields. Cell Tissue Res (2021). https://doi.org/10.1007/s00441-021-03489-6 Abstract Epigenetic mechanisms regulate gene expression, without changing the DNA sequence, and establish cell-type-specific temporal and spatial expression patterns. Alterations of epigenetic marks have been observed in several pathological conditions, including cancer and neurological...

July 11, 2020
ORIGINAL RESEARCH ARTICLE Front. Microbiol., 19 June 2020 https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2020.01112 It is well known that many organisms can perceive the magnetic field (MF), including the geomagnetic field, but how to feel MF is unclear. Recently, a study has claimed that a biological compass, namely a complex of the magnetic receptor (MagR) and blue light (BL) receptor...
