ID Number 378
Study Type In Vitro
Model 900 MHz (CW, GSM) exposure to NIH 3T3 and L929 cells and analysis of gene expression
Details

NIH 3T3 fibroblasts and L929 fibrosarcoma cells treated/initiated with 3-chloro-4-(dichloromethyl)-5-hydroxy-2(5H)-furanone (also called MX) and the herbicide vinclozolin for 6 hours. Cells will be exposed to 900 MHz (GSM or CW) at 0.3 or 1 W/kg for 10 or 30 minutes during the 6 hours chemical treatment and analyzed by Northern blot for expression levels of c-fos, c-jun, and c-myc. Initial reports from the EBEA 2001 meeting in Helsinki Finland suggest increases observed in these three gene targets following exposure.
