Exposure to 900-MHz microwave radiation induced oxidative stress in the brains of male Wistar rats, as evidenced by decreased levels of antioxidant enzymes (GPx and SOD), increased catalase activity, elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS), and reduced melatonin levels. Additionally, significant decreases in protein kinase C activity were observed in the whole brain and hippocampus, alongside increased creatine kinase levels and caspase 3 activity, indicating potential neurodegenerative effects. |
