The effect of high strength static magnetic fields and ionizing radiation on gene expression and DNA damage in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
30 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
Magnetic resonance imaging with high static magnetic fields (SMFs) has become widely used for medical imaging purposes because SMFs cause fewer genotoxic side effects than ionizing radiation (IR). However, the effect of exposure to high SMFs on global transcription is little understood. We demonstrate that genes involved in motor activity, actin binding, cell adhesion, and cuticles are transiently and...
