PEMF Wnt and cancer
TThe QuantumTx group demonstrated that PEMF inhibits MCF7 cancer cells and spares MCF10a normal cells. The main difference is that MC7 cells have chromosome compartmentalization that favors Wnt signaling. Wnt signaling is thought to be a mechanism of PEMF bone healing. What is Wnt signaling? The PEMF gated Ca2+ might be involved. We know…

PEMF and the microbiome
This post covers two QuantumTx mouse studies that claim changes in the micobiome that includes the cecum and the pellets. What does this mean for humans wishing to change their microbiomes? The amazing thing is that the microbiome changes seen in the mice were after only 10 minute exposures of “PEMF” per week over…

CRY2 and TRPC1
A recent paper from theQuantumTx group of Alfredo has established a much speculated connection between cryptochrome 2 and the beneficial effects of PEMF on C2C12 myoblasts. The role of Ca2+ influx via TRPC1 channels and subsequent cell signaling was anticipated. The nuclear interaction between CRY2 and TRPC1 was not.

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…

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…
