Abstract
Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) are recognized for their potential in regenerative medicine, offering a non-invasive avenue for tissue rejuvenation. While prior research has mainly focused on their effects on bone and dermo-epidermal tissues, the impact of PEMFs on nervous tissue, particularly in the context of neuropathy associated with the diabetic foot, remains relatively unexplored. Addressing this gap, our preliminary in vitro study investigates the effects of complex magnetic fields (CMFs) on glial-like cells derived from mesenchymal cell differentiation, serving as a model for neuropathy of the diabetic foot. Through assessments of cellular proliferation, hemocompatibility, mutagenicity, and mitochondrial membrane potential, we have established the safety profile of the system. Furthermore, the analysis of microRNAs (miRNAs) suggests that CMFs may exert beneficial effects on cell cycle regulation, as evidenced by the upregulation of the miRNAs within the 121, 127, and 142 families, which are known to be associated with mitochondrial function and cell cycle control. This exploration holds promise for potential applications in mitigating neuropathic complications in diabetic foot conditions.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Molecular Sciences (ISSN 1422-0067) provides an advanced forum for chemistry, molecular physics (chemical physics and physical chemistry) and molecular biology. It publishes research articles, reviews, communications and short notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their theoretical and experimental results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers or the number of electronics supplementary files. For articles with computational results, the full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material (including animated pictures, videos, interactive Excel sheets, software executables and others).
