Chapter 2 describes the fields to which people are exposed. Exposure to these fields in turn
induces fields and currents inside the body. This chapter describes and quantifies the …

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by the loss of neurons in
the substantia nigra pars compacta and a striatal deficiency of dopamine. PD typically affects …

There is evidence to suggest that the neuroprotective effect of exposure of extremely low-
frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) may be due, at least in part, to the effect of …

Oxidative stress is heavily involved in several pathological features of Multiple Sclerosis
(MS), such as myelin destruction, axonal degeneration, and inflammation. Different …

Neurogenesis continues at least in two regions of the mammalian adult brain, the
subventricular zone (SVZ) and the subgranular zone in hippocampal dentate gyrus …

The ion Ca 2+ has been shown to play an important role in a wide variety of cellular
functions, one of them being related to cell differentiation in which nerve growth factor (NGF) …

Aims Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is considered a valid experimental
model for multiple sclerosis, a chronic neuroinflammatory condition of the central nervous …

An investigation was conducted on the effect of transcranial magnetic field stimulation (TMS)
on the free radical production and neuronal cell loss produced by 3‐nitropropionic acid in …

Electric and magnetic fields have been known to influence cellular behavior. In the present
study, we hypothesized that the application of static magnetic fields to neurons will cause …

Electromagnetic fields are able to promote axonal regeneration in vitro and in vivo.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is used routinely in neuropsychiatric …
