“…In this research, 50 Hz magnetic field exposure was conducted using an AC magnetic field exposure device (Soken MS, Toride, Ibaraki, Japan), which has two separate magnetic coils inside the device 16,17 . The value of peak magnetic flux density B max is 180 mT and B rms is 127 mT on the surface of the magnetic field exposure device above the center of the coils.…”

Understanding the molecular genetic basis of animal magnet reception has been one of the big challenges in biology. Recently it was discovered that the magnetic sense of Drosophila melanogaster is mediated by the ultraviolet (UV)-A/blue light photoreceptor cryptochrome (Cry). Here, using the fruit fly as a magnet receptive model organism, we show that exposure to a specific AC magnetic field during night time affected the health of the fly. AC magnetic field exposure showed lifespan extension under starvation, sleep improvement and prevention of decreased motor function. In contrast, all the health improvement effect was not observed in cryptochrome mutant flies (cryb). We showed that AC magnetic field exposure prevented motor dysfunction in Gaucher's disease model Drosophila. The data suggests that magnetic field-dependent improvement of sleep quality, lifespan and motor function is mediated through a cry-dependent pathway in animals.

“…Additionally, it has been elucidated that magnetic stimulation improves the functional capacity in the acceleration and consolidation of fractures (Qiu et al, 2020) and bone mineral density (Mohajerani et al, 2019). The role of magnetic stimulation has been also extrapolated at cellular level; specially, in bone regeneration, musculoskeletal and neural tissue disorders (Marycz et al, 2018), cell transplantation (Kamei et al, 2018), bone formation at the tissue, cellular and subcellular level, favoring the process of osteogenesis (Bachl et al, 2008), cell proliferation, extracellular matrix production, chondrocyte apoptosis and negative regulation of inflammatory cytokine (Vicenti et al, 2018) and reduction of pain and infection (Catalano et al, 2018;Maziarz et al, 2016;Okano et al, 2017;Qiu et al, 2020).…”

“…On the contrary, magnetic treatments reduce pain level and disability and increase the range of motion (Elshiwi et al, 2019;Nayback-Beebe et al, 2017). Magnetic stimulation also influences in the increase of blood and lymphatic flow, promoting tissue regeneration (Okano et al, 2017;Ross et al, 2017). MF influence in the expression of tendon genes and inflammatory cytokines which are important factors in tendon regeneration (Pesqueira et al, 2018).…”

This review article elucidates the application and viability of electromagnetic fields as therapy and rehabilitation method for the treatment of musculoskeletal pathologies. All studies were found in different databases such as Science Direct, Scielo, IEEE, ProQuest, Pubmed, among others, where the search for information contemplated a period of 5 years (2016-2020). Results evidenced that electromagnetic fields used to treat musculoskeletal conditions showed positive results and improvements in reducing chronic and acute pain in different musculoskeletal pathologies such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, nonunions, fractures, fibromyalgia, muscular system injuries, among others. It was possible to evidence that one of the most used magnetic treatments were pulsed electromagnetic fields, which have been implemented to treat joint, muscle and nervous diseases. Additionally, several devices to generate the magnetic stimulation have been designed with a therapeutic and rehabilitation approach, which elucidate the progress in the implementation and acceptance of this type of therapeutic alternatives to treat musculoskeletal conditions. Finally, magnetic stimulation has been also implemented to enhance biomaterials function, evidencing that scaffolds stimulated with electromagnetic fields improve musculoskeletal tissue regeneration.
