Background: We have earlier shown that exposure of human endothelial cell line EA.hy926 to 900 MHz GSM mobile phone radiation causes changes in the expres sion of numerous proteins. Here, we have examined the ef fects of 1800 MHz GSM mobile phone signal on the proteome of the same cell line.
Results: EA.hy926 cells were exposed for one hour to 1800 MHz GSM signal, simulating mobile phone talkin g conditions, at an average specific absorption rate (SAR) of 2.0 W/kg at 37±0.3°C. Sham samples were produced simultaneously in the same conditions but without t he radiation exposure. Cells were harvested immediatel y after 1-hour exposure to the radiation, and proteins were extr a cted a nd sepa r a ted using 2-dimensiona l electrophoresis (2DE). In total, 10 experimental re ..
