The effect of electromagnetic waves of mobile phones on DNA, RNA content and kidney function in rats before, during and after pregnancy and their offspring


" A high significant decrease in DNA, RNA and protein levels were found of all periods in exposed groups compared to control. No difference in protein, DNA and RNA content in new born and young rats of pre-pregnancy EMW exposed rats, however these parameters were increased significantly in new born and young rats of both during and during and after pregnancy exposed groups compared to control. There was no difference in new born kidney function and oxidative stress of all exposed groups compared to control. However, these parameters were increased significantly in young rats of both during and during and after pregnancy exposed groups as well in all exposed groups compared to control. In conclusion, the EMW propagated from mobile phones have harmful effects on DNA, RNA and protein content as well kidney function and oxidative stress of exposed rats and their offspring. Therefore, people may use various antioxidants and avoid exposure to EMW for a long periods to prevent the potential adverse effects of exposure to EMW." {Credits 1}
