ICES traumatic brain injury
This post combines the preclinical results from a US company called Micro-Pulse and a very biophysical “letter to the editor” by a Danish company called Re5. The featured image of this post is a MicroPulse ICES waveform and one from Re5 supplemental data referenced in this post. It is assumed that the rise time…

Desmin and mitohormesis
Hormesis is a two-phased dose-response relationship whereby low-dose exposures have a beneficial effect and high-doses toxic. Pulsed ElectroMagnetic (very low) Frequency (PEMF) mitohormesis is the slight generation of reactive oxygen species that activates the transient receptor potential C1 (TRPC1) Ca2+ channel. Ca2+ signaling and mitochondrial adaptations are shared between magnetic fields and endurance training in…

PEMF and atherosclerosis
This post is an ad for a Moodle.com course I’d like to create explaining this PEMF publication. I’ve taken a few online courses and learned so much from the discussion than from the actual course material. This post previews what I know about the methods used to generate the hypothesis that PEMF ameliorates the…

Muscle twitching and PEMF
Many of the high power PEMF device practitioners see muscle twitching, tiny little contractions, as evidence that PEMF is giving the tissue a “cellular workout.” Many claim that voltage gated calcium channels are opened by PEMF. Some practitioners are completely and totally without a clue as to whole complicated things are. The featured image…

28 kHz PEMF mitochondria
This post follows a mitochondria PEMF study partially funded by Hofmeir Magnetics Ltd, Reading, UK, the source of the device. The mitochondrial energetics work was performed by the Austrian not-for-profit organization Trauma Care Consult GmbH. The study sought to establish a mechanism. This study if very unique in the interrogation of various mitochondrial respiratory…
