Gravity and PEMF
This post examines the effect of up field and down field static magnetic fields in plants and pulsed electromagnetic fields in a a skeletal muscle cell line. Up field and down field is relative to the force of gravity in a manner distinct from the magnetic field of the earth. Just how do these…

electrons of triplet oxygen
Part of the long journey of learning how PEMF interacts with molecular oxygen, O2, is discarding the notions of electrons, atoms, and molecules we learned in grade school.

PEMF and ceramides
This journey starts with the notion that 50 Hz from powerlines contributes to leukemia via ceramides in lipid membranes. It does so via interaction of PEMF with voltage gated Ca2+ channels. Signaling kinases related to changes in intracellular Ca2+ were examined. Another kinase, Akt, was found to be the signaling kinase and intracellular store…

TRPC1 and muscle stretch
This post is a follow up to a post to discussing 50 Hz PEMF activating sphingosine kinase 1. (Yang 2019) This post explores two things that PEMF and exercise have in common: the both activate TRPC1 Ca2+ channels and increase sphingosine-1-phosphate. This post also explores the interaction between TRPC1 and S1P for muscle health.

TRPC1, stretch, adipocytes, and PEMF
This post proposes that PEMF may do something holistic for adipocytes. Many PEMF users may feel gentle mechanical vibrations. The TRPC1 and PEMF post analyzed the hypothesis that TRPC1 may be regulated by reactive oxygen species from PEMF. This post proposes the gentle vibration we feel with PEMF may do something for this mechano-sensitive…
