Abstract

Summary. A magnetic-field nullification achieved in a magnetically shielded room or a magnetic field of 70 µT generated in a solenoid with a sinusoidal wave of 50 Hz plus 45 µ TD Co fEarth, although able to change the cell proliferation and the physico-chemical properties of the cell membrane, did not seem to significantly influence gene expression in Friend erythroleukemia cells. In fact, when the culture growth cycle of these cells underwent magnetic-field deprivation or irradiation, the transcriptional and translational rates, in both undifferentiating and dimethylsulfoxide-differentiating cultures, turned out to be irrelevant. This result was supported by the magneticfield independent expression of the genes for α and β hemoglobin chains.
