  • Title: [The participation of thyroid hormones in modifying the mutagenic effect of microwaves].
    Author: Koveshnikova IV, Antipenko EN.
    Journal: Radiobiologiia; 1991; 31(1):147-9. PubMed ID: 2008517.
    Abstract:
    The mutagenic effect of microwaves (2,450 or 2,750 MHz, 500 microW/cm2, 30 days, 7 h a day) increases with both low and high thyroid hormone content in rats. This indicates that normal functioning of the thyroid gland is an important condition for the stabilization of chromosome integrity under the effect of nonionizing radiation of microwaves.
