Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have constructed a magnetic fields exposure system for long-term experiments with human cells, and investigated the time dependence of magnetic fields exposure influence on drug potency. The results indicated that the potency of anticancer drug, cisplatin to human lung cancer cells was increased significantly by exposure to magnetic fields for 0.5 ~4 h, not for 24 h or more. Furthermore, our results suggested that the magnetic fields enhance the potency of anticancer drugs to not only lung cancer cells but also human hepatoma cells.
