Magnetic fields promote a pro-survival non-capacitative Ca2+ entry via phospholipase C signaling
Published in The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology
The ability of magnetic fields (MFs) to promote/increase Ca(2+) influx into cells is widely recognized, but the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. Here we analyze how static MFs of 6 mT modulates thapsigargin-induced Ca(2+) movements in non-excitable U937 monocytes, and how this relates to the anti-apoptotic effect of MFs. Magnetic fields do not...
