“…Their potential harmful effects on biological systems, such as leukemia, breast cancer, and cardiovascular disease, are under constant debate [Ahlbom et al, 2008]. In contrast, beneficial effects of LF EMF have been reported, including decreased severity of intestinal lesions in coccidian-infected chickens , accelerated wound healing [Callaghan et al, 2008;Goudarzi et al, 2010] and accelerated bone healing in rats and humans [Grana et al, 2008;Griffin et al, 2008], and augmented response of macrophages to bacterial challenges in humans [Akan et al, 2010]. To date, no mechanism of action has been elucidated, although several possible mechanisms have been suggested, including changes in signal transduction pathways and modulation of oxygen radicals [Liburdy et al, 1993;Blank and Soo 2001;Rollwitz et al, 2004;Frahm et al, 2010].…”
