Study Type In Vitro
Model 900 MHz (CW) exposure to isolated rat cortical neurons and analysis of gene expression and metabolic endpoints
Details

Rat cerebral cortical neurons were isolated and exposed to 900 MHz (CW) for either 2 hr/day for 6 days or for 12 hrs straight at an SAR of 1.15, 2.23, or 3.22 W/kg. The authors report exposure caused significant decreases in GABA receptor expression (P < 0.01) with a power "window" effect. In related studies using similar exposure conditions in isolated rat neurons, the authors report decreased expression of GluR2 protien(P < 0.01), an increase in intracellular calcium, and downregulation of cytochrome oxidase with dose response relationships.
