Features: Therapy
Magnetic Fields can be Static, or pulsed. The most common therapy is a pulsed magnetic field in the uT or mT range.
The main pathways affected are:
Calcium Signaling: -influence the activity of voltage-gated calcium channels.
Oxidative Stress and Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) Pathways
Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs) and Cellular Stress Responses
Cell Proliferation and Growth Signaling: MAPK/ERK pathway.
Gene Expression and Epigenetic Modifications: NF-κB
Angiogenesis Pathways: VEGF (improving VEGF for normal cells)
PEMF was found to have a 2-fold increase in drug uptake compared to traditional electrochemotherapy in rat melanoma models

PI3K, Phosphatidylinositide-3-Kinases: Click to Expand ⟱
Source: HalifaxProj(inhibit) CGL-CS
Type:
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PtdIns3K or PI3K) is a family of enzymes that play a crucial role in cell signaling pathways, particularly in the regulation of cell growth, survival, and metabolism. The PI3K pathway is one of the most frequently altered pathways in human cancer. Inhibition of the PI3K pathway has been explored as a therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment. Several PI3K inhibitors have been developed and are currently being tested in clinical trials. These inhibitors can target specific components of the pathway, such as PI3K, AKT, or mTOR.

Class I phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)
Class III PtdIns3K
In contrast to the class III PtdIns3K as a positive regulator of autophagy, class I PI3K-AKT signaling has an opposing effect on the initiation of autophagy.

PI3K inhibitors include:
-Idelalisib , Copanlisib, Alpelisib
-LY294002?
-Wortmannin: potent PI3K inhibitor, has some associated toxicity.
-Quercetin:
-Curcumin
-Resveratrol
-Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG)

3457- MF,    Cellular stress response to extremely low‐frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF‐EMF): An explanation for controversial effects of ELF‐EMF on apoptosis
- Review, Var, NA
Apoptosis↑, Ding et al., 8 it was demonstrated that 24‐h exposure to 60 Hz, 5 mT ELF‐EMF could potentiate apoptosis induced by H2O2 in HL‐60 leukaemia cell lines.
H2O2↑,
ROS↑, One of the main mechanisms proposed for defining anticancer effects of ELF‐EMF is induction of apoptosis through upregulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which has also been confirmed by different experimental studies.
eff↑, intermittent 100 Hz, 0.7 mT EMF significantly enhanced rate of apoptosis in human hepatoma cell lines pretreated with low‐dose X‐ray radiation.
eff↑, 50 Hz, 45 ± 5 mT pulsed EMF, significantly potentiated rate of apoptosis induced by cyclophosphamide and colchicine
Ca+2↑, Over the past few years, lots of data have shown that ELF‐EMF exposure regulates intracellular Ca2+ level
MAPK↑, Mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are among the other important signalling cascades which are stimulated upon exposure to ELF‐EMF in several types of examined cells
*Catalase↑, ELF‐EMF exposure can upregulate expression of different antioxidant target genes including CAT, SOD1, SOD2, GPx1 and GPx4.
*SOD1↑,
*GPx1↑,
*GPx4↑,
*NRF2↑, Activation and upregulation of Nrf2 expression, the master redox‐sensing transcription factor may be the most prominent example in this regard which has been confirmed in a Huntington's disease‐like rat model.
TumAuto↑, Activation of autophagy, ER stress, heat‐shock response and sirtuin 3 expression are among the other identified cellular stress responses to ELF‐EMF exposure
ER Stress↑,
HSPs↑,
SIRT3↑,
ChemoSen↑, Contrarily, when chemotherapy and ELF‐EMF exposure are performed simultaneously, this increase in ROS levels potentiates the oxidative stress induced by chemotherapeutic agents
UPR↑, In consequence of ER stress, cells begin to initiate UPR to counteract stressful condition.
other↑, Since the only proven effects of ELF‐EMF exposure on cells are cellular adaptive responses, ROS overproduction and intracellular calcium overload
PI3K↓, figure 3
JNK↑,
p38↑,
eff↓, ontrarily, when cells are exposed to ELF‐EMF, a new source of ROS production is introduced in cells which can at least partially reverse anticancer effects observed with cell's treatment with melatonin.
*toxicity?, More importantly, ELF‐EMF exposure to normal cells in most cases has shown to be safe and un‐harmful.
