ID Number		2127
Study Type		In Vitro
Model		450, 900, 1745 MHz exposure to primary monocytes and analysis of proliferation, apoptosis, and adhesion molecule expression
Details		Human primary mononuclear cells were exposed to 450, 900, or 1784 MHz (CW) for 2, 6, or 24 hours. The authors report no effect on cell viability, apoptosis, proliferation rate, or major histocompatibility (HLA-DR) or CD11b surface marker expression. However, CD11a (integrin subunit) surface expression was decreased and CD49d (VLA integrin subunit) expression increased. The authors suggest exposure could affect the functional capacity of peripheral blood mononuclear cells by changing adhesion properties. Maybe these alterations are the sign of the immune system modulation. More comprehensive studies are needed, involving higher number and more lines of cells
