“…Therefore, we named them "interferon-like molecules." In our experiments, we also found [14] that medium-strength square-wave impulses of direct ionic current (DC) can result in a short-term direct antiviral resistance to virus infections and in a consequence to alter the membrane properties of the target cells [15]. We therefore decided to study the changes in the expression of membrane-bound surface marker molecules that are on the surface of the immune competent cells in the human blood [16][17][18].…”

“…It should be noted that blood circulation through blood vessels and capillaries is the basis of the functioning of the human body, and a change in the electrohydrodynamics of blood in a pulsed electric field can lead to various pathologies. In this way, pulsed electric fields of medium intensity (~100 V/cm) stimulate blood coagulation, as was demonstrated in [8]. Therefore, this effect should be taken into account in the development of hemodynamic models.…”

“…Moreover, taking into account the fact that living systems themselves generate electric fields and pulses, whereas external pulsed electric fields, in their turn, also affect living systems and enzymes [8][9][10], the data obtained in the present study can be interesting for use in modeling pathological processes in human body upon the impact of pulsed electric fields: for instance, in the development of hemodynamic models.…”
