EMF proliferated the growth of cancer cells

Research in the Department of Pediatrics College of Human Medicine, involving Biophysicists, and Electrical Engineers at Michigan State University, revealed that 60 Hz ELF- EMF exposure resulted in a dose dependent inhibition of differentiation of  Friend erythroleukemia cells with maximal inhibition peaking at 40% and 40 mG (4 µT). ELF-EMF at 10 mG (1.0 µT) and 25 mG (2.5 µT) inhibited differentiation at 0 and 20% respectively.  EMF at 1.0 (100) and 10 G (1,000 µT) stimulated cell proliferation 50% above the sham-treated cells. Investigators concluded that the 60 Hz EMF may not cause cancer but proliferated the growth of cancer cells in vitro [7].

• Microwave radiation: 2.45 Ghz microwave radiation of mouse-embryo fiberblasts increased TPA transformation of cancer cells compared to previous radiation with X-ray alone. U. Maryland investigators concluded that low level microwave radiation can induce latent transformation damage which can then be revealed by the action of tumor promoters [1].
• This concurs with the inhibitory effect of melatonin on cancer cells, and EMF depression of melatonin possibly allowing proliferation of breast cancer cells in National Health Environmental Lab-EPA and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, U. California as reported at 18th  Annual Meeting of the Bioelectromagnetics Society, Victoria, Canada, in 1996.
• In England, intensities of electric fields were significantly higher, 13.6 V/m in the bedplaces of children diagnosed with leukemia, than for controls 7.26 V/m, with chronic night time exposure above 20 V/m giving a five fold increased risk of leukemia [8].
• Higher risk of cancer among electrical workers in relation to EMF exposure on the job further implicates EMF proliferation of cancer [12,14,16,19] and suicide [13,17].
• Dairy cattle exposed to 1.98 to 3.28 µTesla magnetic fields, housed 7 meters under a 330 kV transmission line in Italy had significantly different absolute numbers and percentages of leucocyte sub-populations than control cows remote from the transmission line (0.2-0.7 µT). The difference in CD4+ and CD8+ populations were remarkable [6].
• Canadian cows exposed to 10 kV/m and 30 µT, 60 Hz EMF produced 5% less milk, 16% less milk-fat, and consumed 5% more feed (dry matter) than control cows not exposed. during a 28-day trial. The EMF exposure was equivalent to standing under a 735 kV AC transmission line [4]. Melatonin decreased in blood serum, progesterone increased in lactating pregnant cows, length of estrus cycle increased, Insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) increased in blood, growth hormone (GH) was increased during part of the nocturnal cycle, macro and trace element changes occurred in blood: Ca, Mg, Fe and Cu. Cerebrospinal fluid (CFS) concentrations of Ca, P, Mg, Mn, and Na were different in EMF than control cows. Quinolinic acid increased and tryptophan tended to increase in CFS. CSF changes were consistent with weakening of the blood-brain barrier [3].
• Melatonin has strong oncostatic, immunological, and antioxidant properties. It normally follows the nocturnal pattern of low secretion during daylight and high secretion during darkness. Modification of melatonin nocturnal secretion is believed to be associated with disturbed sleep patterns of humans.
• Human Melatonin, and its urinary metabolite, decreases in relation to EMF exposure of electrical workers in substations or on 3-phase conductors more than 2-hours per day, electric train operators, office workers using Visual Display Units (computer monitors), and cellular telephone users who use the phone more than 25 minutes per day [5].  Melatonin in breast milk follows the nocturnal cycle of blood and urine.
• Serotonin neurotransmitter receptors in the brain are modified by ELF-EMF pulsed (10-20 Hz) transcranial magnetic stimulation, and moods of mental patients are changed by radiation of different cranial lobes, as were Beta-adrenergic receptors and A2A  adenosine receptors in human neutrophils [18].
• Intrajugular injection of serotonin agonist L-tryptophan increased blood growth hormone (GH), thyroid hormones T3 + T4, and milk production of cows. The pineal and pituitary glands located in the hypothalamus are mediators of environmental stimuli and body functions.

Harmonics are not limited to high or low current neutrals.

• Intensity of magnetic fields was higher for the 60 Hz, than for the 180 Hz and 3rd, 5th, and 7th  harmonics. However, the greater severity of magnetic fields in relation to cancer corresponds to observations that body impedance of electrical current decreases and current passing through the body increases as frequency increases. Harmonics are multiples of 60 Hz frequency.
