“…5 Photomicrograph showing c-fos expression in animals irradiated at 3 W, in repeated exposure there is intense neuronal activation (a) marked with an asterisk and shown at high magnification (b); note slight c-fos activation in repeated exposure, nonirradiated animals (c, d).Calibration bar 100 lm (a ,c) and 50 lm (b, d) [20], has also been used experimentally to diminish pain [76,77] and to activate the hypothalamus-hypophysis in the treatment of various pathologies [78,79]. Recent studies have shown that the PVN plays an important role in analgesia [58,[80][81][82].…”

This study investigated the effects of microwave radiation on the PVN of the hypothalamus, extracted from rat brains. Expression of c-Fos was used to study the pattern of cellular activation in rats exposed once or repeatedly (ten times in 2 weeks) to 2.45 GHz radiation in a GTEM cell. The power intensities used were 3 and 12 W and the Finite Difference Time Domain calculation was used to determine the specific absorption rate (SAR). High SAR triggered an increase of the c-Fos marker 90 min or 24 h after radiation, and low SAR resulted in c-Fos counts higher than in control rats after 24 h. Repeated irradiation at 3 W increased cellular activation of PVN by more than 100% compared to animals subjected to acute irradiation and to repeated non-radiated repeated session control animals. The results suggest that PVN is sensitive to 2.45 GHz microwave radiation at non-thermal SAR levels.

Pulsing electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy may be a viable form of complementary and alternative medicine. Clinical applications include the treatment of fractures, wounds, and heart disease. More recent applications involve treatment of recurrent headache disorders. This paper reviews available studies investigating PEMF for headache management. Possible mechanisms for effects (neurochemical, electrophysical, and cardiovascular) are discussed. The available data suggest that PEMF treatment for headache merits further study. Suggestions for future research are provided.
