Genes and Cancer under Magnetic Control

Static magnetic fields as a factor in modification of tissue and cell structure: a review

“…The key to understanding the action of an MF in biological systems is the mechanism of radical pairs; which act as magnetosensitive agents. Electron transfer is a source of radical pairs and accompanies many biochemical processes (Buchachenko and Kuznetsov, 2021;Lahiri et al, 2001). The energy involved in the recombination of radical pairs results from the interaction between the spins of unpaired electrons and the spin of adjacent nuclei; between the spins of the radical pair; and the interaction of the isolated spin and magnetic field (the Zeeman interaction) that causes the direction of the electron's magnetic moment of the electron to oscillate (Albuquerque et al, 2016).…”

“…This means that nuclear magnetic ions inhibit the synthesis of DNA, m-RNA and t-RNA, controlling the processes in the cell, e.g., replication, transcription and translation, thus these ions can affect cell viability. In summary, MF can control the following processes: DNA synthesis, which extends DNA strands to form genes; cleavage, the cutting of DNA chains causing DNA damage and destroying genes; and DNA repair (Buchachenko and Kuznetsov, 2021).…”
