Deficits in spatial learning after exposure of mice to a 50 Hz magnetic field

A series of four experiments was performed to determine the effect of exposure to a 50 Hz magnetic field on memory‐related behaviour of adult, male C57BL/6J mice. Experimental subjects were exposed to a vertical, sinusoidal magnetic field at 0.75 mT (rms), for 45 min immediately before daily testing sessions on a spatial learning task in an eight‐arm radial maze. Control subjects were only exposed to a background time‐varying field of less than 50 nT and the ambient static field of about 40 μT. In each experiment, exposure significantly reduced the rate of acquisition of the task but did not affect overall accuracy. This finding is consistent with the results of another study that found that prior exposure to 60 Hz magnetic fields affected spatial learning in rats.

This study was undertaken to investigate whether power frequency magnetic fields can affect the kinetics of cell cycle progression in exposed human cells. To achieve this, cultures of normal human fibroblasts were synchronised in the G0 phase of the cell cycle and exposed to 50 Hz magnetic fields at a range of flux densities. Progression through the cycle was monitored by examining the timing of entry into S phase, as characterised by the onset of DNA synthesis. Simultaneous positive controls were exposed to human recombinant fibroblast growth factor to demonstrate that the system was responsive to external stimuli. Exposure to magnetic fields at 20 and 200 μT induced a small but significant increase in the length of the G1 phase of the cell cycle. However, exposure at higher flux densities of 2 and 20 mT had no significant effect. These results are discussed in relation to weak magnetic field effects on free radical concentration.
