Abstract

Overview

Recently, magnetic fields (MFs) have received major attention due to their potential therapeutic applications and biological effects. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the cellular and molecular impacts of MFs, with a focus on both in vitro and in vivo studies.

Findings

  • Examines the mechanisms by which MFs influence cell behavior, including modifications in gene expression, protein synthesis, and cellular signaling pathways.
  • Analyzes interaction of MFs with cellular components such as ion channels, membranes, and the cytoskeleton.
  • Describes effects on cellular processes including proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis.
  • Explores molecular insights into how MFs modulate oxidative stress and inflammatory responses, which are pivotal in various pathological conditions.

Therapeutic Implications

Further explores the therapeutic potential of MFs in regenerative medicine, cancer treatment, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Conclusion

By synthesizing current findings, this article aims to elucidate the complex bioeffects of MFs, thereby facilitating their optimized application in medical and biotechnological fields.
