MCP-1 (Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1, also known as CCL2)
MCP-1/CCL2 is a chemokine involved in recruiting monocytes, memory T cells, and dendritic cells to sites of inflammation.
– It plays a key role in mediating immune cell trafficking, inflammation, and tissue remodeling. MCP-1 is pivotal in inflammatory responses and can modulate immune cell infiltration into tissues.
– It also influences the polarization of macrophages, which may adopt pro-inflammatory (M1) or anti-inflammatory/pro-tumoral (M2) roles.

Many cancers (such as breast, prostate, ovarian, lung, and colon cancers) exhibit increased levels of MCP-1.
– Both tumor cells and associated stromal cells (e.g., cancer-associated fibroblasts, infiltrating immune cells) can produce MCP-1, contributing to an inflammatory milieu.

• Inducers of MCP-1:
– Hypoxia, oncogenic pathways, and cytokine-rich environments (e.g., IL-1β, TNF-α) can drive increased MCP-1 expression.
– This upregulation often correlates with an ongoing inflammatory response in the tumor microenvironment.

4105- MF,    Extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields stimulation modulates autoimmunity and immune responses: a possible immuno-modulatory therapeutic effect in neurodegenerative diseases
- Review, AD, NA
*Inflam↓, On the basis of in vitro and clinical studies on brain activity, modulation by ELF-EMFs could possibly counteract the aberrant pro-inflammatory responses present in neurodegenerative disorders reducing their severity and their onset.
*neuroP↑, TMS (60 Hz, 0.7 mT) applied to rats for 2 hours twice daily, can be neuroprotective
*NO↑, The growth curve of exposed bacteria was lower than the control, while field application increased NO levels
*ROS↓, A significant increase of free radical production has been observed after exposure to 50 Hz electromagnetic fields at a flux density of 1 mT to mouse macrophages
*NO↓, EMF represents a non-pharmacological inhibitor of NO and an inducer of MCP-1,
*MCP1↑,
*HSP70/HSPA5↑, Tokalov and Gutzeit (2004) showed the effect of ELF-EMF on heat shock genes and demonstrated that even a low dose of ELF-EMF (10 mT) caused an increase in HSPs, especially hsp70
*antiOx↑, Whereas most environmental electromagnetic radiations cause oxidative stress in the brain (Sahin and Gumuslu, 2007), ELF-EMF seems to have an antioxidant and neuroprotective effect
*NRF2↑, ELF-EMF induces the antioxidant pathway Nrf2, which is closely associated with its protective effect against neurotoxicity induced by 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP)
*NF-kB↓, Selective inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway by ELF-EMF may be involved in the decrease of chemokine production.

3468- MF,    An integrative review of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF) and wound healing
- Review, NA, NA
*other↑, studies suggest that PEMF accelerates early stages of wound closure
*necrosis↓, By preventing necrosis, PEMF can potentially be used to reduce the incidence of ulcer formation and amputation in patients with diabetes.
*IL6↑, When gingival wounds were exposed to PEMF, one study measured an increased expression of various signalling molecules involved in proliferation including IL‑6, TGF‑β and iNOS
*TGF-β↑,
*iNOS↑,
*MMP2↑, The same study also found increased levels of MMP‑2, MCP‑1 and HO‑1 expression, all of which are thought to increase wound repair rate
*MCP1↑,
*HO-1↑,
*Inflam↓, PEMF has also been shown to reduce inflammation in chronic wounds through both intracellular and extracellular effects.
*IL1β↓, Multiple studies have measured reductions in inflammatory cytokines (IL‑1β, IL‑6, TNF‑α) following PEMF treatment
*IL6↓,
*TNF-α↓,
*BioAv↑, Electrochemotherapy mediated by PEMF was found to have a 2-fold increase in drug uptake compared to traditional electrochemotherapy in rat melanoma models
eff⇅, PEMF at 50Hz, 1mT for 1 hour had increased keratinocyte proliferation compared to control groups, while the same tissue exposed to PEMF at 60Hz, 1.5mT for 144 hours had reduced cell proliferation
DNAdam↑, At higher frequencies (6–7mT), an increase in DNA double-strand breaks, apoptosis and levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured, contributing to the inhibition of cell proliferation.
Apoptosis↑,
ROS↑,
TumCP↓,
*ROS↓, tissues exposed to lower frequencies of PEMF (1mT) had decreased ROS levels
*FGF↑, Furthermore, both diabetes-related and non-diabetes-related incision wounds had similar levels of increased FGF‑2, promoting angiogenesis and preventing necrosis in response to ischaemic injury
