The effects of extremely low frequency magnetic fields (ELF‐MF) on acetylcholinesterase
(AChE) activity of synaptosomal membranes were investigated. Sinusoidal fields with 50 Hz …

Our previous study has shown that an extremely low‐frequency magnetic field (ELF‐MF)
induces nitric oxide (NO) synthesis by Ca2+‐dependent NO synthase (NOS) in rat brain. The …

Neuronal ion chambers are gated pores whose opening and closing is usually regulated by
factors such as voltage or ligands. They are often selectively permeable to ions such as …

Intense uniform magnetic fields, such as those used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),
are thought to exert little influence at the cellular level. Here we report modifications of the …

Aim There is a specific frequency of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-
EMF) that promotes neuronal differentiation. Although several mechanisms are known to …

Throughout life, adult neurogenesis generates new neurons in the dentate gyrus of
hippocampus that have a critical role in memory formation. Strategies able to stimulate this …

This report outlines a simple mechanism, based on the Hall Effect, by which static and low
frequency (50–60 Hz) pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) can modify cation flow across …

To investigate how extracellular electric field modulates neuron activity, a reduced two-
compartment neuron model in the presence of electric field is introduced in this study …

Weak electric fields modulate neuronal activity, and knowledge of the interaction threshold is
important in the understanding of neuronal synchronization, in neural prosthetic design, and …

The cooperative action of neurons and glia generates electrical fields, but their effect on
individual neurons via ephaptic interactions is mostly unknown. Here, we analyze the impact …
